Hi Sean,

Thanks for replying.

Yep, monitoring the machine sounds definitely good.

So, in order to visualize data in as close to real-time as possible changing 
the refresh-rate in Grafana is the proposed way? Anything else to be aware of? 
(first time for me using the InfluxDB / Grafana toolset).

Thank you.
