Equipment dashboard
What is the Equipment dashboard?
The Equipment dashboard provides a cohesive summary of a selected piece of equipment. Information displayed includes alarm history, user change history, equipment graphics, historical trend information, and relationships with other equipment and spaces.
How do I get to the Equipment dashboard?
To navigate to an Equipment dashboard, tap or click an equipment's name in a widget or a navigation button within a graphic in the Graphics widget. You can also search for a piece of equipment and tap or click the equipment's name in the search results.
Associated equipment object links are viewable from many places in the UI, including Alarm Manager. Anywhere there is a link to the equipment in the UI, it can be navigated to as long as the user has access.
When would I first see the Graphics widget on an Equipment dashboard?
If a graphic is configured for a piece of equipment, the default dashboard layout with the Graphics widget appears first. To see other widgets, use the Navigation 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 an Equipment dashboard?
In the default dashboard layout for equipment, the Schedule widget appears after the Trend widget, the Equipment Activity widget, the Equipment Relationship widget, the Equipment Data widget, and the Graphics widget. To see other widgets, use the Navigation page drop-down in the header of the Metasys UI. If a custom dashboard has been applied, the schedule widget may appear in a different location, or not at all.
