Automatically set time interval for XY Plots

XY Plots have a hard-coded limit of 10k values. When generating a plot, it would be nice to have a function that, instead of throwing an error, adapts the time interval of the plot in order to stay under the 10k limit.

PI EMDVB - Set Procedure start time to match first Unit Procedure start time

Currently, when an operator adds a new batch to the DeltaV Batch List, that "creation" action starts a new EF Procedure. But the batch might sit in that list for a long time before the Unit actually starts processing it. This leads to a huge empty...
