The IoT Dashboard App is based on the Open-Source-Software Grafana for dashboards adapted for ctrlX AUTOMATION. Grafana™ is a trademark registered / owned by Grafana labs, which is not affiliated with and does not endorse the ctrlX CORE App.
With heat maps, diagrams and histograms, data from various data sources and applications can be visualized and analyzed on dynamic dashboards. For this purpose, Grafana offers a variety of plugins to connect the common systems, such as InfluxDB directly.
The dashboard in the Grafana application supports multiple panels in a grid and multiple data sources can be visualized at the same time. In the IoT environment, one focus of the software is on the display of data from numerous time series databases for the analysis of measured values, for example.
Key Features
Panels – From heatmaps to histograms, graphs to geomaps. Grafana offers fast and flexible visualizations
Alerts – Create, manage and silence all your alerts easy with a simple configuration
Transformations – Allows you to rename, summarize, combine, or perform calculations across all data streams
Annotations – Annotate graphs with rich events from different data sources
Panel editor – Easy way to configure, customize and explore all your panels

The most important function is the dynamic visualization in real time of data, measured values or log files. Using the graphical dashboards, all important information can be displayed very clearly with predefined or user-defined widgets. The dashboards can be flexibly configured by the user, contain interactive functions and work dynamically.
With its own plug-in interface, Grafana collects important information from a wide variety of data sources. This data is brought together in one place for further analysis. Numerous filter options support the user.
The extensive functions of Grafana also include an integrated alarm system to alert the user to predefined events. In this way, when defined threshold values are reached or status changes, notifications can be automatically triggered to multiple destinations such as e-mail.
