There was a file listed a while back on the forum, I do not remember the
exact name because I have renamed my copy. It lists the map name, device
name, device type, down time, last poll time, polls missed and last state of
change.
I think that would answer your question. If you can not find it, let me know
and we can swap the files.

Subject: [WhatsUp Forum] Web Templates, Down time total or this
