What a dashboard can display

You can display widgets for:

Indoor
climate statistics by floor
Alarms
: summary of active alarms
Ventilation
status at the facilities
Calendar
: operating hours and operation management per facility

Configuring components for the Dashboard

In order for Evolo to use your components in widgets, you must set their display type.

The Information dialog in the View Builder displays all data points that are in use.

In the Components tab, you can link components in the view to widgets on the dashboard.

Here’s how to do it

Click the Components tab in the view builder; you must have the Installer role

Select the Measurement Type for each component you want to display

Room - Temperature will instruct the system to display the value from this component/data point in the Dashboard's Indoor Climate widget.

Create widgets

Create or open a view of the “Fixed Placement” type.
Add the widgets you want to use via the side menu.
Go to view mode.
Verify that the widgets are displaying data.

Use the building dashboard when you want to give the user a quick overview of the status in a building without opening multiple detailed views.

Managing Operations from the Calendar Widget

The Calendar widget allows users to manage operations directly from the dashboard—without access to the rest of the calendar. Anyone with access to the view can start or extend operations on the objects in the widget.

Start an operation when an object is idle, or Extend an operation when it is running
Select duration: +1 hour, +2 hours, until 10:00 PM, or for the rest of the day
The change is a one-time event—the regular schedule remains unchanged

Grant a tenant access to the view, and they can manage operations on their properties—but they won’t see anything beyond what you’ve selected on the map.
