====Contexts====

Most applications only have the one //context//, which is automatically created when you first install ARDI.

The default context is called 'Actual' and represents the real, measured data from your assets.

However, you might have more than the Actual context - you might have //simulated//, //planned//, //ideal// or //worst-case// contexts available.

ARDI allows you to view trends, charts and virtual environments for each of these contexts.

You can also //compare// your values both within a between contexts, live or historical.

This means that if you had an //actual//, //simulated// and //ideal// context, you could compare....

  * Your live measurements vs a the actual measurements taken two weeks ago.
  * Your live measurements against the ideal measurements.
  * Your historical measurements against what the simulator expected.
  * Your simulated measurements vs the ideal etc.
