Overview

The Sensor Events Card allows the user to see any events created for the sensor in a Dashboard card format. This page will guide the user in configuring a Sensor Events card.

Creating a Dashboard Card

To create a new card, the user can click the   icon within the upper left corner of the screen to begin customizing a new card. Upon adding a new Card, a placeholder card will be added to the Dashboard, and along the right side of the screen the user will be given the first set of configuration options for the card, "Card Type" and "Card Title". 

1. From the "Card Type" dropdown list, select "Sensor Events".

2. "Card Title" allows the user to name the card.

3. Click the blue gear icon to select the sensor. After clicking the icon, a pop-up selection window will appear, illustrated below. The user can select one sensor from the available sensors list. After making the sensor selection, click the "Done" icon in the lower right of the pop-up window.

4. Once these selections are made, the placeholder card will be replaced by the "Sensor Events" card, as illustrated below. Click the blue "Save" button in the upper right to save the card to the Dashboard, or to immediately configure another card to the Dashboard click the "+Card" button on the upper left.

Sensor Alert Card Options

Once the card is configured, a few additional options become available. This section will cover those options.

1. Create Event- The "+" icon allows the user to add a new event for the selected sensor. The configuration page for the new event is illustrated below.

2. View/Edit Event- Clicking on the name of an event opens a page to view, edit, or delete the previously created event. The "Manage Event" page is illustrated below.

Manipulating the Card

After several cards have been created, a user may need to move or resize cards to best visualize data and information. Within Dashboard edit mode, the user can move or resize cards. After making any changes, be sure to save the changes by clicking the blue "Save" icon on the upper right corner of the Dashboard.

1. Moving Card- If hovering over the upper title portion of a card, a "Move" icon will appear. Click and holding allows the user to drag and drop the Card. Other cards will be repositioned automatically as the selected card is moved. 

2. Resizing Card- Clicking the lower right corner of the card allows the user to change the vertical and horizontal size of the card.
