+ | The **Data** field in the **Values** tab is used to assign values to time-dependent data in the time series. The data table is organized with the time points in the first column and data in the subsequent column(s). For small data sets, the easiest way is to enter the data directly in the table. For large data set, the easiest way is typically to import it (see [[import|below]]). | ||
- | The information section details specifics about the time series. The description box can give you information about the data to enter, and the unit box tells you which unit is expected for the data. | + | {{timeseries.png?400}} |
