Device card view

Device card view

Every device type is special and thus may have a specific view on history data. To reflect the full potential of the device features you can choose between 5 different card views (Last activity, List of activities, Charts, Last map position, Notifications) based on the data you are interested in the most.

Each device card can be modified via the menu – more details in section Device menu – Settings.

Filtering

In the case of having hundreds of devices in a group, it might be harder to find a concrete device. Then you use the filtering options which are based on certain criteria like ID, Name, Tags, Manufacturer, and Device type. Simply fill any of these fields and hit the search button. The outcome will be either your concrete device or a filtered group of devices based on your input.

Additionally, you can also display devices that belong into subgroups of your main group by clicking on the switch “Including subgroups”

Device Menu

Each device has its own further options in the menu that can be modified accordingly to your needs. It does not only offers customization but also shows useful historical data like Data details or Connectivity subscriptions. More details about each menu item are down below in this section (Items like Remove device and Documentation are left out as they speak for themselves).

Device Menu – Settings

Device settings are divided into 3 tabs:

General – Contains general information about the device like Manufacturer, ID, Name e.g. Certain items can be changed based on your preferences like Radio Zone, Location source preference, Name…

Downlink – Via downlink, you can set new device settings sent from the server to the device.

Custom view – Here you can customise the device card on main dashboard.

• Default view = choose if you want to see Last activity, List of activities, Chart, Last position, or latest notifications on the main dashboard by default. You can always switch to different view manually via icons in the bottom toolbar on the device card. One option here represents one icon in the bottom toolbar on the device card.
• Main key = it is an Action (name of the event sent by device) by default but you can choose any other data from the message to be displayed as the main information, for example Temperature or CO2. Please, keep in mind that not all data keys is available in every message (only Action is guaranteed)
• Default map zoom level = defines the default zoom level when you switch to Last position view
• Tracing history length = defines the number of device positions to be displayed on Last position view
• Default chart = choose the chart that will be displayed on Chart view
• Dashboard data = defines what data is displayed on Last activity view

Example: You own a device for temperature and humidity measuring. The main purpose of this device is temperature measuring, therefore you can go to Custom view and set it up as follow:

Default view: Charts

Default chart: Temperature 

Main key: Action

With this setup, the device card will always show by default a chart with temperature.

Device data details are divided into 3 tabs:

Charts – display different charts in time based on features of your device like Temperature, Humidity, Air quality e.g.
