Dashboard

SDMC dashboard mainly consists of seven modules, namely Dashboard, Device Management, Personnel Management, Monitor, Message, Logs, and System, along with two functional columns on both sides.

Modules 

Device Management

The Device Management module allows you to manage device deployment on a node-by-node basis and synchronize data to the corresponding devices at selected nodes. It also enables you to make calls to specific devices and open doors. In addition, you can search and check data for specific device(s).

Introduction to Nodes

Create nodes before deploying the devices to the nodes. You can either manage the node one by one or use a template.

• About Nodes

Add Nodes

Add Nodes Separately

In the Device Management module, you can create nodes from the community node to the room node.

1. Move the arrow to the Community (root node), and click  to create building nodes.

2. After the building nodes are created, you can create other nodes subordinated to the building nodes in the same way.

3. Move the arrow to the Public node and click to create a public area node.

Note

You can click to change the node name.

Add Nodes Using a Template

1. Click  to go to the node template.

2. Set up the node number at each node level.

• Create From: This decides the order of the created node. For example, if you want to create Buildings 10-20 and there are already Buildings 1-12, you can enter 9 in the Create From field, and the new buildings created will be ordered from 10. The original Buildings 10, 11, and 12 will be reordered to be Buildings 21, 22, and 23.

• Set As Floor Level: Decide the accessible floors for residents. The node number equals the floor number. For example, if you enable Set As Floor Level for the unit with node number 6, the resident can access the 6th floor. You can also turn on or off the feature when editing nodes.

Note

• Room and public nodes are optional.

• Set As Floor Level is enabled for Level 4 by default.

• Set As Floor Level can only be enabled for Level 2, 3, 4, or 5. The accessible floors will be synchronized to the Personnel Management > Resident > Add Resident interface.
