+ | ====== Quick start ====== | ||
+ | |||
+ | After receiving your first ActiveGuard device, you can start using ActiveView. This quick start section will walk you through some basic functionalities and give you some understanding of what the application looks like and how it works. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== Connecting your ActiveGuard ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Make sure your device is properly [[av_manual: | ||
+ | Next, place a SIM card inside your ActiveGuard (refer to the ActiveGuard user manual for details) and turn it on. Now you are ready to start using ActiveView. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== Verifying connection ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | When you start ActiveView, you see a **//login screen//**. Use your user name and password to log in to the application. | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{ pl: | ||
+ | |||
+ | After successfully logging in, you are taken to the **//main screen//**. On the upper edge, there is the main menu. You can use it to get to main application functionalities, | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{ pl: | ||
+ | |||
+ | Your ActiveGuard should have connected to the server by now. To see a list of connected devices, choose the // | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{ av_manual: | ||
+ | |||
+ | Now you see two panels: the first one is the device list and next to it, on the right, there are details of the selected device. This pattern is used across the whole application. Details of an object chosen in one panel are presented in a new panel on the right. This way, you can open two, three or more panels, with more and more details. If not all panels fit the screen, you can scroll them left and right, by moving your mouse while holding the Ctrl key and the left mouse key. Alternatively you can click on buttons on the left and right edges of the browser window (with **<** and **>** icons). | ||
+ | |||
+ | The device' | ||
+ | |||
+ | When your device is connected to the server, it sends different kinds of events. Some of them are just for technical purposes (e.g. //TEST// event). Other mean that an alarm occurred (e.g. //PANIC// event). | ||
+ | |||
+ | All events received by ActiveView are listed in the **//Events panel//**. Choose //Events// in the main menu to open it. | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{ av_manual: | ||
+ | |||
+ | Now hit the Panic button on your ActiveGuard. You should see a //PANIC// event on top of the events list. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Use appropriate filters to display the events in detail: Skip // | ||
+ | |||
+ | When ActiveView receives a //PANIC// event, it generates an alarm. The //Alarms// tab in the main menu should start blinking. Choosing it opens the **//Alarms panel//**. | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{ av_manual: | ||
+ | |||
+ | Find //PANIC// alarm in the //New// section and double-click it. You now see the **alarm’s details**, including its type (// | ||

+ | |||
+ | ===== Adding a patrolled site ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | One of the main functions of ActiveView is the verification of guard patrols. To use it, you have to define a patrol route. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Adding a company ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Patrol routes are associated with sites. So first you need to set up data like the company, site and so on. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Go to // | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{av_manual: | ||
+ | |||
+ | This is an example of creating an object in ActiveView. You open a **list** and choose //Create// in the bottom right corner. Then, in a **//new panel//**, you fill in the details (some of them are mandatory, some optional) and choose //Save//. This creates a new object and closes the details panel. You could also choose //Cancel//, which would close the panel without creating a new object. And you could choose //Apply//, which would create new object, but leave the details panel open. | ||
+ | |||
+ | When you open details of an existing object (try it with the company you have just created), you get the //Apply//, //Save// and //Cancel// options too. You also get a //Remove// option, which lets you remove the object. All these options are always available in the same place, at the bottom of every details panel. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Adding a site ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | You have created a company, now you can create your client’s site. On the **company details panel**, click //Sites// and then //Create// to create a new site. Fill in the name and address (optional) and save changes. | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{ av_manual: | ||
+ | |||
+ | The next step is to link your device to the client’s site. Open your **ActiveGuard’s details** (// | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{ av_manual: | ||
+ | |||
+ | You now have a company, a site and a device linked to them. The only thing left to define a route are checkpoints (RFID tags). | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Adding checkpoints ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | When you read a checkpoint with an ActiveGuard linked to a site, ActiveView automatically records it and connects it with the site. Try reading some checkpoints and then select // | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== Verification of a patrol ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | To verify a guard patrol, you have to define a patrol route. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Defining a route ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Open the details of your client’s site. You can do it either by finding the right company (// | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{ av_manual: | ||
+ | |||
+ | Enter a name for the route. Then click // | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{ av_manual: | ||
+ | |||
+ | Now choose //Save// on the **route checkpoints panel**. You have defined what a single patrol looks like. The next step is to tell ActiveView when guards should perform patrols, i.e. define a schedule. To do this, click // | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{ av_manual: | ||
+ | |||
+ | The default schedule type is "every X days”. It means that, depending on the periodicity, | ||
+ | For your first route, you can leave the default // | ||
+ | You have named your route, chosen checkpoints and schedule, and then select //Save// on the schedule panel. | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{ : | ||
+ | |||
+ | Additionally, | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Looking for alarms ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Open the **Alarms panel** (//Alarms// in the main menu). Wait until a patrol starts (it depends on the schedule you have defined). After the route’s duration, if the guard has not passed all checkpoints on the route, an alarm pops up. | ||
