Overview

The Condition Monitoring Alert Dashboard is a Bluzone feature for managing and visualizing the alerts generated from vibration and temperature policies for condition monitoring applications with the BEEKs CM v2 beacon.  This feature is part of the Advanced Condition Monitoring SaaS package.

The dashboard can be accessed by clicking on "CM Dashboard" in the left panel:

Main Screen

When you click on "CM Dashboard" the alert layout will appear with four main parts: Total Alerts, System Status, Active Violations Chart, and Active Violations Table.  The following sections explain these in detail.

1. Total Alerts

The red box at the top left of the screen will show the total number of active alerts, with a breakdown by the policy type: Motion Condition, Vibration Threshold, and Temperature.  Policies other than these three are not currently supported in the CM Dashboard. 

Take note that only active violations are displayed.  Violations (alerts) that have been manually cleared by a user or automatically cleared by the system (if auto-clear has been enabled for that policy) will not be displayed here.

2. System Status

The blue box at the top right of the screen will show the system connectivity status, with a breakdown by device (BluFis and Beacons).  

If some of the devices (BluFis or Beacons) are offline, but there are still some devices online, the status will display "ONLINE" and show a breakdown of the number of connected devices.

If all of the devices are offline, the status will display "OFFLINE" and show zero devices connected.

3. Active Violations Chart

The Active Violations Chart shows a time history of active violations, with a breakdown by policy type.

4. Active Violations Table

The Active Violations Table shows a grid-view of all active violations on the project, with some details for each alert.  This table is used to access the data visualization for each individual alert.  Click on the binocular icon on the right side of each alert to display the detailed information for that alert, including data visualization.

Take note that only active violations are displayed.  Violations (alerts) that have been manually cleared by a user or automatically cleared by the system (if auto-clear has been enabled for that policy) will not be displayed here.

Alert Views

By clicking on the binocular icon in the Active Violations Table, you will see the detailed information and data for that alert.  The Alert View for the three supported policy types (Motion Condition, Vibration Threshold, and Temperature) are explained below.

Motion Condition Alert

In the Motion Condition Violation Details screen, the tables at the top display information related to the beacon and policy, and the charts at the bottom show the data.  The charts will display RMS vs. Peak-to-Peak vibration for the selected metric (either Acceleration or Velocity, determined by the Model Features parameter in the policy settings) and for each axis of the beacon (X, Y, Z).   

The Training Period is the window of time over which the baseline vibration model was learned (according to the policy settings).  The training data (i.e. learned baseline) will display in blue on the plots.

The Violation Date shows the time of the alert, calculated according to the evaluation settings configured in the policy.  The violation data (data that falls outside the baseline and causes an alert to be generated) will display in red on the plots.  By default, the plots will display violating data between one day before and one day after the time of the alert.  This range can be configured with the Start and End dates above the plots.  Only training and violating data is displayed on these plots.  For a complete time history of vibration data, see the /wiki/spaces/BC/pages/294256641.

For more information on configuring the Motion Condition policy and explanations of how the training data and violating data are generated, see the Motion Condition Policy tutorial.

Vibration Threshold Alert

In the Vibration Threshold Violation Details screen, the tables at the top display information related to the beacon and policy, and also show information related to the violation.  The Violation Point is the calculated data point that exceeded the threshold and generated the alert. Keep in mind that the Violation Point is not a single data point, but rather an average of all data points calculated across a sliding window (with the amount of time being the Time Window set in the policy settings).  As a result, you will see various degrees of time lag from the actual vibration increase (blue) to violation point (red) according to the length of time set.  

The Violation Vibration Metric/ Axis row in the table shows the metric selected in the policy settings, along with the beacon axis that caused the alert.  If a threshold exceedance occurred on more than one axis, the axis with the highest value is displayed.

For more information on configuring the Vibration Threshold policy and explanations of how the data is evaluated, see the Vibration Threshold Policy tutorial.

Temperature Alert

In the Temperature Violation Details screen, the tables at the top show details of the policy and beacon and the chart shows a time history of temperature data along with the violation data point.  The time history of data will display as a daily average (blue), and the violating data point (red) is the calculated value that caused the threshold exceedance.  To view a complete time history of temperature data over various aggregation intervals (minute, hour, day), see the /wiki/spaces/BC/pages/294256641.

For more information on configuring the Temperature policy and explanations of how the data is evaluated, see the Temperature Policy tutorial.
