Locations
A location is a place where instruments stand: an intake, a filter hall, a reservoir. Every device belongs to one location, and every location has one tag. Data from a device is filed under its location’s tag unless something more specific applies, such as a FlowControl flow.
Open it from Locations in the left navigation.
The location list
Section titled “The location list”
Each card shows the location on a map, its first address line and city, and its tag.
From top to bottom:
- Create location — adds a location. Shown to Managers and Admins only. See Create a location.
- The menu (⋮) with Refresh.
- A search field. It matches location names only, not addresses or tags.
- One card per location: a map thumbnail, the name, the first address line and city, and the location’s tag as a colored badge.
Select a card to open the location page. The list has no map view; use View on map on a location page.
The location page
Section titled “The location page”
Location details holds the address and the tag; below it are the devices at this location, each with its state.
- Header — the location name, a back arrow, View on map (opens a map with the location marked), and the menu (⋮) with Refresh, Edit and Delete. Edit and Delete are shown to Managers and Admins only. On a phone, View on map moves into the menu.
- Location details — the Address (address lines, city, country) and Tags, the location’s tag.
- Devices — a card for every device at this location, with its status as on Devices. Create device opens the create dialog with this location already filled in.
