Cameras & Sensors
Overview
For a Camera or Sensor, this section shows graphically the availability and health for the selected time period (day, week, month) and date.


Colour coding
When viewed for today only, each section on the Details page gives an indication if it is currently alerting and thus impacting the associated heat tile colour. Find out more about colour coding.
Description
Horizontal axis: Adjusts according to the selected time period to show "hours" in day view and "days" in week and month views; redraws if the time zone is changed at the top right of the Details page. See Zoom options for methods to zoom in on the data.
Time period
Highlight displays the values for each data point in the time period:
Day
Shows multiple data points per hour (one for each polling period, usually one to five minutes)
Week

Month

For any time period, hover on a point to see date, timestamp and availability status. If hovering on a week or month, there may be multiple availability states in the time period.
