Understanding the Door Switch Chart:

When accessing the door switch chart you will see something like the below:



The blue line represents the cumulative number of minutes a door has been open since the last Monday at midnight. To simply read this chart, if the line is flat, all doors connected to this zone are closed. If the line is incrementing, one or more doors connected to the zone are open.

Use the button in the top left hand corner to choose a zone. Use the buttons along the bottom of the chart to switch between views for 1 day, 2 days, 7 days, 1 month, 3 months or 6 months. you can also use the select button to choose a specific time-frame.

Holding your cursor over the line will bring up a pop-up so you can see the exact readings at the point your cursor is referencing on the chart. The graph resets at midnight between Sunday and Monday.

Whilst the outstation is constantly monitoring the various temperatures to ensure controls are always optimised, the panel records this information in half hour increments. Thus, for a single day, you will see 48 readings, one each half hour.
