Setting up Filter Keys in Analyst

The filter key functions in @Analyst allows for a grouping and selection of measurement points. It is a powerful tool when using reporting and filtering. The filter keys are also used to select measurement points for export or even to identify points for data mining purposes. 

Filter key are created by the user and when created, the filter keys are connected to the measurement points either by using the point properties for a single point or by using the Modify by attribute function.
