Alarm Event Timeline

Alarm Event Timeline

An Event Timeline is created for each alarm triggered. The Event Timeline is very useful when viewing relative information associated to a specific alarm including event as well as current information. When using the Event Timeline, a report can be exported to include configurable information. 

Viewing the Event Timeline

When Viewing the Event Timeline for a specific alarm, several pieces of information are listed.

  2. Status - This will state whether the status of the alarm is still active, pending, cleared or resolved

  4. Cleared - Shows the date/time the alarm was cleared (This will only display if the alarm has reached the clear status)
  5. Resolved - Shows the date/time the alarm was resolved (If the alarm is still active this will remain blank)

Current Information

  1. Activated on - This displays the date/time the device was activated
  2. Last Location - This displays the date/time of the last location obtained

Locations

The Locations tab provides both an interactive map displaying location points obtained throughout the duration of the alarm, as well as a list of the individual location points with details.
  1. The interactive map will show the last obtained location point during the duration of the alarm. A timeline at the top of the map can be manipulated to show specific time frames by using the sliders. A Playback feature is also available with speed configuration, as well as pause and reset features.
  2. By selecting any of the location points in the list of the locations on the right, the map will display that point. 
    1. By click on the location point on the map, a box will display showing the enrollee's name, date/timestamp of the location point and the number of GPS satellites used to obtain the location point.
    2. By clicking "Open", another box will open displaying the following information regarding the location point:
      1. Timestamp
      2. Address
      3. Battery
      4. Timezone
      5. Lat/Long
      6. Charging (Yes/No)

  4. Select "Show All Locations"
     to display every location as clustered points on the map. You can zoom in or out, and as you zoom in on a cluster, individual points will emerge, each marked with a number. These numbers indicate the sequence in which the locations were recorded, with lower numbers representing the most recent entries.
    1. A playback feature is available that sequentially plots points on the map, enabling users to follow the track or trail from start to finish. The user can also "pause" or "reset" the playback. 

Alarms

The Alarms tab provides a list of any other alarms triggered during the original event, displaying alarm type, status, creation, cleared and ignored information.  

Export

The Export button allows the user to configure and export a spreadsheet containing the timestamp, address, lat/long and WiFi accuracy of location points. 
When selecting the "Export" button, the user can choose "All Locations" to "Yes". This will export the above information for all location points within the alarm event. If "All Locations" is selected to "No", the user can select a start and end time, allowing the user to export a specific range of location points to export.
