Dashboard overview
What the dashboard is for
Your at-a-glance home for a site's live energy data: a grid of widgets, tiles that each show one thing. You choose which appear, how big they are and where they sit. You can keep several layouts, each one a View, for example "Live" for power now and "History" for charts.
Where to find it
Open Dashboard from the main menu.
The top bar carries the View dropdown, a date control that sets one date for every widget at once (it will not page past today), and the pencil that turns on edit mode. Outside edit mode the tiles are locked, so you cannot move them by accident.
Views
Open the View dropdown to switch between Views. Each row has a trash icon, and an Add view row sits at the bottom. For the rest, enter edit mode and open View Settings with the gear icon.
- View Title - rename the View you are looking at.
- Create New View - type a name, then Add Before or Add After. New Views start empty.
- Auto Update - when on, the dashboard refreshes its data every 10 minutes.
- Delete a View - the same removal, from the sidebar.
Deleting a View cannot be undone. Its widgets and layout go permanently. You cannot delete your last View.
Edit mode
Click the pencil. It changes to a close (X) icon, the tiles unlock, and an Add New Widget bar appears.
- Add - click Add New Widget, search the picker, click Add Widget. Every card has a ? button that opens that widget's help first.
- Move - drag a tile; the others shuffle aside.
- Resize - drag a tile's corner.
- Remove - use the close control on the tile.
Click the close icon when you are done. The tiles lock, the layout closes its gaps, and changes save on their own, with the time of the last save in the top bar. Layouts are saved per screen size, so a phone, tablet and monitor each keep their own.
Every tile also has its own spanner (settings) icon, for renaming the header and, on charts, picking the series and the data interval.
Who can do what
Anyone who can open the plant can read the dashboard, switch Views, change dates and arrange their own layout. None of that is permission-gated.
Widgets that send a command to equipment are different: that needs more than view-only access on the plant, meaning the Installer or Full control level. Below it the app answers "Not authorized: view-only access to this plant".
