Viewing Temperatures

From the ASSETS tab, you can see where assets are located, if there are any active incidents, the last reading date and time, the current temperature, and the 24-hour high and low temperatures.

1. To view an asset in detail, click on the ASSET NAME. From here you can view asset details, a temperature graph, asset history, sensors, and assigned alarms.
   
   
   
   
2. The graph defaults to today's temperature readings. Select Yesterday, Last 7 Days, or Last Month, or input a specific date range to change the graph to the time frame you wish to see. This will also pull the temperature readings on the right-hand side in a list view.
   
   
   
   
3. To zoom in on the graph, click and drag on the section you would like to see more closely. Click RESET THE ZOOM to return to the original view.
   
   
4. To download a CSV file of the temperature data, click on the DOWNLOAD CSV button.
   
   
   
   
5. The MEASURES button (located to the right of the LAST READINGS button) allows you to toggle plot lines on and off for your sensors. This is helpful when looking at sensors with both temperature and humidity readings.
   
   You can also click on THRESHOLDS to drop dotted lines that represent the temperature thresholds for the selected asset.
   
   
6. Below the graph, you can view your ASSET HISTORY. This provides a quick look at any incidents or changes that have been made to the asset.
   
   
   
   
7. Below Asset History is SENSORS, which displays sensor information for the sensor(s) currently assigned to the asset. Additionally, you can view the port assigned, signal strength, battery life, and a link to the NIST calibration certificate (if applicable).
   
   
   
   
8. Finally, at the bottom of the page, you can view ALARMS CONFIGURED. This area displays the alarms that are currently set for the asset.
   
   
   
   

Responding to Incidents

From the INCIDENTS tab, you can see where assets are located, if there are any active incidents, the last reading date and time, the current temperature, and the 24-hour high and low temperatures.

1. Any HIGH SEVERITY INCIDENTS that require attention will have an incident tile in the top section of the page.
   
   
2. Below High Severity Incidents will be a list of ALL INCIDENTS that lists the type, location, incident number, severity, trigger time, and assignee. Selecting an incident from the list will bring up all the incident details.
   
   
3. Clicking on an INCIDENT CARD will allow you to respond to an incident.
   
   
   
   
4. The INCIDENT CARD will provide a quick view of the incident. Selecting VIEW INCIDENT DETAILS will bring up a page with the same information as the incident card and includes a graph.
   
   
5. Selecting ACKNOWLEDGE will acknowledge alarms and stop any additional notifications (if this action is allowed under your alarm settings). Once acknowledged, the icon will change from BLUE to GREEN. An incident can only be acknowledged once.
6. Selecting CLOSED from the dropdown menu will close the incident. This is only needed if your alarm settings are not configured to auto-close the incident. Selecting ON HOLD will freeze the incident open and it won't close until changed to ACTIVE.
   
   
7. Selecting a user's name from this dropdown will assign the incident to a specific user.
   
   
8. Clicking the CORRECTIVE ACTIONS button will open a text box where you can enter the steps that were taken to resolve this incident. Select SAVE to apply changes.
