The “GPS” locate icon can be accessed by clicking on the unit ID number button.  If the unit has valid GPS coordinates, the globe icon will appear directly below the unit ID.  When that icon is clicked, a new window will open showing a pin at the exact location of the unit.  If you hover your mouse over the pin, the unit description will appear.  If you click the pin, all of the alarm and parameter conditions will appear on your screen.

You can also access the GPS function by hovering over the “GPS” menu and selecting “Map All Units” or, when the  unit ID has been clicked, choose “Map Unit.”

The GPS icon (a little blue and green globe) will appear only when there are valid GPS coordinates on the “Edit Machine” page.  Your service provider can manually insert the Latitude and Longitude values on the Machine edit page.  There is a link next to the Longitude box, “Find GPS By Address,” that will give your provider the latitude and longitude values once the address for the location is input.  Enter the appropriate coordinates (ex: Longitude: -98.4875, Latitude: 29.42273) and click submit.  Your GPS button should now be visible.

A red “X” under the Alarm header means that one of the monitored inputs is in a state that has been defined as an Alarm. To determine just what the alarm is, just move your mouse over the red “X“, and when the “Hand” appears, click. A new page will open showing which alarm or alarms are present. A green check mark indicates “No alarms”. The box under the “Fault” header operates just like the Alarm box, but indicates that one of the Analog inputs has exceeded the programmed limit. Just click on the red “X” to see what has caused the fault.

It is possible that your “alarm box” will be highlighted in a yellow color.  This indicates that the generator failed to perform its weekly exercise.  A yellow highlighted “Age of Last Data” box indicates that the unit has not connected with our server for a predetermined amount of time (24 hours for generator monitors, 48 hours for cathodic protection equipment).  Both of these conditions indicate a service call is needed.
