KPI Model Panel
This panel shows all the objects belonging to the KPI Model. The KPI Model presents a flexible, customizable and more human-readable rendering of your data-source network. Important data items or calculated KPIs can be selectively chosen and organized according to your business needs. Whereas the I/O model provides a physical representation of your data-source network arranged by location (or OPC Server), the KPI Model allows full organizational flexibility and can be structured by location, business area or KPI type, customized exactly to your needs. The same KPI can be added to multiple organizational structures and viewed in different contexts alongside related information sources regardless of location.

The KPI model is fully integrated with the web Dashboard of Visual KPI. The KPI model organizational structure you create in the system will be automatically mapped to Visual KPI and can be visualized in the web dashboards there.

For more information on the KPI Model and Visual KPI, please refer to the Installing Visual KPI Jump Start. For more details on creating a KPI model from the I/O Model tree, please refer to the Using Lua Scripting Jump Start.
