Activity Panel
Purpose
Visualize the sensor's operational activity throughout the selected reporting period.
Description
The Activity Panel displays the sensor's operating state as a bar chart divided into 30-minute intervals. Depending on the selected reporting period, the panel displays activity for a single day or the entire month, allowing users to verify sensor availability for mosquito event detection and identify periods when event recording is temporarily suspended.
Access
From the Sensor Status Screen, select Activity from the Main Menu.
Key Components
- Activity Chart: Displays a bar chart representing the sensor's operating state in 30-minute intervals throughout the selected reporting period.
- Activity Status: Each bar represents the sensor's operating state:
- Green: Sensor available to detect and record mosquito events.
- Red: Sensor temporarily unavailable for event detection while processing data or performing internal operations.
- Panel Controls: Allow users to:
- Select the reporting period (Daily or Monthly).
- Select the displayed date or month using the calendar controls. When Monthly is selected, the calendar allows users to select a month instead of an individual day.
- Download the displayed activity data.
If no bar is displayed for a time interval, no activity status was received because the sensor was either offline or unable to transmit data to the server during that period.
Recordings Panel
Purpose
Visualize recording activity and outcomes throughout the selected reporting period.
