Space dashboard

What is the Space dashboard?

The Space dashboard provides a cohesive summary of the selected space, including the equipment that serves the space and potential problem areas in the space.

How do I get to the Space dashboard?

The Space dashboard is the default view when you first log in to the Metasys UI. To navigate to a Space dashboard, tap or click a space in the Navigation panel, a link to another space in a widget, or a navigation button within a graphic in the Graphics widget. You can also search for a space and tap or click the space in the search results.

When would I first see the Graphics widget on a default Space dashboard?

If a graphic is configured for a space, the default dashboard layout has the Graphics widget appear first. To see other widgets, use the page drop down in the header of the Metasys UI. The Graphics widget may not appear first, or be available at all, if a custom dashboard has been applied.

For more information on Custom Dashboards, see Dashboards Manager.

Where is the Schedule widget on a Space dashboard?

In the default Space dashboard layout, the Schedule widget appears after the Equipment Serving Space widget, the Potential Problem Areas widget, the Equipment Summary widget, and the Graphics widget. To see other widgets, use the page drop-down in the header of Metasys UI. If a custom dashboard has been applied, the schedule widget may appear in a different location, or not at all.
