Live View Controls and Indicators

Sensor Name

The colour of the text for each named sensor in this column gives an indication of its state:

Black

–  sensor giving normal reading, within alarm threshold.

Red

–  sensor in alarm condition.

Orange

–  sensor in alarm condition, but alarm has been acknowledged.

Blue

–  sensor is out of service.

Single-clicking on this text gives more information – see below. Double-clicking opens graphical display of the live sensor data – see Operations from the Live View

This icon indicates the alarm status of the sensor.

clip0164

clip0165

The current reading for the sensor channel. Typically, channel 1 would be for temperature data, channel 2 for relative humidity.

A red icon indicates that the sensor reading has gone over its alarm threshold value.

The Door Alarm icons indicate the state of the door alarm channel (if present):

clip0166

The door is closed.

clip0167

The door is open and the alarm has not been acknowledged.

clip0168

The door is open and the alarm has been acknowledged.

clip0169

There is no door monitoring and alarm function associated with this transmitter.

The battery icons indicate the state of the battery for the associated transmitter:

clip0170

Battery is fully charged.

clip0171

Battery has less than half its life left, but need not be replaced yet.

clip0172

Battery is very low and should be replaced as soon as possible.

clip0173

Battery is empty and must be replaced immediately. Note: Scout/Legacy sensors do not output battery information and so the battery display symbol will always be grey. Check for Elapsed Time Alarms.

Alarm Condition Tooltips

Click once on the sensor name to show the current alarm status for that sensor. See below for example.

clip0174

Here we see the date and time of the previous reading from the sensor, also the current battery voltage. The channel 1 temperature value is below the Low Level value that has been set, and so is giving an alarm.

An ‘open door’ alarm might be as shown below.
