Editing Data Series (section)

==Cloning a Data Series==
Cloning a data series will save time when creating the same type of data series for multiple locations. When cloning a data series, the only information needed is essentially the name and details. Selecting different poll types will provide different “cloned” items, each will return specific information pertaining to the poll type.

===Instructions===
<ol>
  <li>If you are already in the “Create Data Series” window skip to step 4. If you are not in that window continue to step 2.</li>
  <li>On the navigation menu (left-hand side) click “Data” and click “Data Series,” this will open a new tab titled “Data Series”</li>
  <li>Highlight the desired data series that is associated with the new data series desired to clone. Within the data series tab (upper left-hand corner) click the “Clone” button. A new window will open titled “Edit Data Series.”  The following line items will be auto-filled in the data series window:</li>
    <ol type="a">
      <li>Tags</li>
      <li>Data Type</li>
      <li>Number Format</li>
      <li>Timing Template</li>
      <li>Poll Type</li>

  <li>In the “Name” field enter the title / name of the data series</li>
    <ol type="a">
      <li>Examples: Average Temperature Front 10 inch, CO2 Average, POD 3 – Row 5 – Cabinet 6, etc. </li>
    </ol>
  <li>Add additional information about the data series in the “Details” field</li>
  <li>Click “Create”</li>
  <li>You will now have a data series with a very similar structure to the data series you used for cloning.</li>
