Alerts dashboard help page

Alerts dashboard is a simple way to keep track of alerts generated on your devices. It functions similarly to a simple mailbox, where you can view new alerts in real time, inspect their message and/or attachment. You can keep track of unread alerts and even bookmark import ones. The dashboard can also be configured to play a sound on new alerts to keep you updated.

Header

On the right side of the header are two buttons: status and settings.

The status button will change color to red and announce number of problems if there are any connectivity problems on the configured devices. Clicking the button opens a table where you can see details.

The settings button is used to configure the dashboard. You can set name, sound and configure which devices and alert types the dashboard listens to. To keep the changes click save on the bottom. Here you can also create a new dashboard by clicking save as new dashboard.

Alert database

In the center of this window you can see a list of alerts. Each alert contains the following information:

  1. Importance: you can bookmark important alerts, they are marked with a star.
  2. Attachment:
    • Nothing - alert doesn't have an attachment
    • Arrows and cloud - attachment is not downloaded yet
    • Image - attachment is downloaded
    • Arrows and exclamation mark - attachment could not be downloaded
  3. Created: datetime of alert creation
  4. Alert: alert type
  5. Device: device that created the alert
  6. Title: title of the alert
You can sort by clicking on any column name. Unread alerts are bold. Clicking an alert will open it in tab on the right side.

Tabs

As with most pages, tab here serves as detail for the selected information, in this case alerts and help.
At the top you can see alert type, title and importance. Below is alert message, device that created it, links to archives and live view and depending on the attachment type either an image browser or video player.
