Getting around

The dashboard, and its five views

One screen, five ways to look at it: grid, stores, map, regions and triage. Which one is useful depends on how many units you're responsible for.

The dashboard shows every unit you're responsible for and its current level. The views exist because five units and five hundred units are genuinely different problems.

  • Grid — a card per unit with its current reading. The right choice up to a few dozen units.
  • Stores — units gathered under the store they protect, which is how most people think about a restaurant estate.
  • Map — geographic, useful for spotting that a whole city is having a bad afternoon.
  • Regions — rolled up by region, for when your span is too wide to read store by store.
  • Triage — only what needs attention right now, worst first.

Whatever the view, a unit that has crossed a threshold sorts toward the top. You should never have to hunt for the bad news.

A banner appears when devices have reported in but haven't been assigned to a store yet. Those units are recording, but they are not yet monitoring anything, so they raise no alerts — assigning them is what turns them on.
