Configuring an AppEngine Object to Store Historical Data

If an AppEngine is deployed before Historian is started, history data can be stored locally by HCAL until the objects successfully register with the Historian.

Note: Except for Late Data, the ViewEngine object contains the same historical attributes as the AppEngine object.
