To gain a comprehensive visual overview of device placement across different floors and areas, along with the ability to interact directly with these devices, Floor Plans serve as an invaluable tool. Each area is equipped with its own dedicated Dashboard featuring a variety of widgets.
To access Floor Plan Insights, follow these steps:
Navigate to the “Site Dashboard” of the desired building by selecting it from the main left menu.
Click on "Areas" in the left menu to display the list of floors within the building. The numerical indicator next to the "Area" button showcases the total count of floors and/or distinct areas in the building.
Choose an area from the list, starting from the lowest (e.g., Basement) to the highest (e.g., Rooftop). Alternatively, use the search bar atop the menu for quicker access.
Upon selecting an area, you will be directed to its personalized Dashboard view.
You can customize the dashboard by creating widgets on a per area basis to display data such as temperature histories, occupancy data, air quality, device and system summaries, events, cameras, etc., all on the same page.
The Floor Plan Widget provides a graphical representation of the floor, displaying devices in a realistic layout. To add a Floor Plan Widget, follow these steps:
Click on the three dots at the top right of the Area Dashboard page.
From the dropdown menu select Add Widgets.
From the Add Widget Window select Floor Plan and then click on Add.
On the Floor Plan Configurator insert the widget name and select the Floor Plan file from the dropdown provided, which you can upload through:
Setting module from the portfolio left main navigation bar > Buildings > choose a building > Files.
Click on the three dots at the top right of the Files page > + Add Floor Plan > from where you can do batch uploading or single uploading.
Click Next to go to the Floor Labels section, where you can select devices which you would like to add to the file you have uploaded.
