Channel data time limit?

Hi - I noticed that after what seems like 12 hours or less, Thingspeak restarts my graph and old values are not displayed. I read about sample limits. Also a mention of a time limit here: https://community.thingspeak.com/forum/general/chart-view-limited-to-2-hours/ Is this the case? (I can of course reduce my update time.

Thanks

Russell

You can use the pencil icon in the top of the chart to change the settings, for example you can change the number of results or the number of days ( these settings compete, you can only set one). There is a limit of 8000 points, so if you are updating rapidly, the old data may fall off. You can find a description of the chart settings on the charts API page . If your channel is public, Id be happy to take a look.

Great, thanks for that. Is the Results field same as number of points?
