Creating a widget (heatmap)


With a heatmap widget, you can display your data on a visual map to easily recognize patterns and trends. The heatmap visualizes different data points using color scales that indicate intensity and frequency. Here is a step-by-step guide to creating a heatmap widget:


1. Create chart

  • Navigate within the platform to the Dashboards tab.

You must decide whether the widget should display measured values or analysis data.

3.1 Analysis data

If the heatmap is to display analysis data:

  • Step 1: Select "Analysis data" in the data menu.
  • Step 2: Define the analysis type (e.g. average, total).
  • Step 3: Determine the time period to be analyzed.
  • Step 4: Specify the interval at which the data is to be updated.

3.2 Measured values

If the heatmap is to display measured values:

  • Step 1: Select "Measured values" in the data menu.
  • Step 2: Determine the measured value to be visualized.
  • Step 3: Select the time period that the widget should cover.
  • Step 4: Determine the aggregation (cumulation) of the data. You can choose between:
    • MAX: Highest value in the period
    • MIN: Lowest value in the period
    • SUM: Sum of the values in the period
    • AVG: Average of the values in the period
    • LAST: Last (most recent) value
    • FIRST: First value in the period
    • COUNT: Number of transmitted values

Example for "COUNT":
If a device transmits a value every 15 minutes (4 times per hour), the "COUNT" for one day is 96 values.


4. Define components

Determine the components from which the data for the widget originates:

  • Step 1: Filter the devices based on:
    • A: Names defined in the system editor.
    • B: System in which the device is installed.
    • C: Device type.
  • Step 2: In list D, select the devices whose data is to be used.
  • Step 3: Add the selected devices to list E.
  • Step 4: You can remove devices from the selection via area F.
