Overview

The RF500 Gateway Web-View features several types of screens which allow the user to perform actions such as viewing readings or alarm events. But first it is important to get to know the layout of the pages, and what areas of the screen do what.

The Navigation or Drop Down Bar

The navigation bar is where you start for all actions such as updating your profile, changing your password or performing Administration functions, such as e-mail setup.

The navigation bar looks like this....

Your Access rights to the Gateway will determine what is available here. In all cases the name of the user will be indicated first, followed by Administration (restricted by user rights on the Gateway, and Help).

Access to these drop down menus just requires the mouse to be hovered over the required element. For example, to see the settings under the username, just hover over 'username' to reveal this drop-down menu...

Calendar

There are several pages which show data records or Events by Day Week or Month. These have a Calendar date picking function which helps significantly in finding information for specific item. To use the Calendar function on pages which it available click the Calendar button to display a calendar as in the example below.

This partial view of the Calendar function (all months are shown) shows all the days that data and Events exist. Days highlighted in blue show that data exists for that day; days highlighted in red indicate that an Event occurred on that day.

Where an alarm Event occurs on a particular day there will always be data records for that day also.

Using the Calendar

The calendar has a single primary function to allow the user to select a period of time for the relevant screen. Dates can be selected in one of three modes.
1. Single Day Mode - Simply select the day required on the Calendar followed by clicking on to confirm the changes. If required you can use the drop down to first select the Year required.

2. Multiple Days Selection Mode - If more than one day is required then the process works as thus; select the first, or last day required, then navigate to the last/first day and click again. The calendar view will change with all the dates selected will have circles to identify them. Click on to confirm the changes. If required you can use the drop down to first select the Year required.

3. Single Month Mode - If a single month is required, then the process is similar; select the month by clicking on the name at the top of the box. The dates will be selected as if you manually selected the 1st and last date of the month. Click on Apply Button to confirm the changes. If required you can use the drop down to first select the Year required.
