3.5.1.1 Configuring the Facility manager dashboard
This topic outlines the workflow to configure the Facility manager dashboard so that it
displays data from your system.
Modifying the chart types or default settings of the Facility manager dashboard are
advanced tasks that require a good understanding of graphic programs and commonly-
used open source tools, such as Haystack and Java. For more information, see the J2
Graphics Builder documentation (https://finproducts.atlassian.net/wiki).
Workflow step
1
Saving a copy of the sample graphic
2
Setting up energy and maximum power demand (bar and line chart)
3
Setting up energy consumption of selected subsystems (pie chart)
4
Setting up present values of selected objects (gauges)
① Saving a copy of the sample graphic
In the Operation application, Plant view is selected in the core function pane
and you are working at the Root level of the building structure.
1. Open the Sample dashboard facility manager graphic.
2. Select > > Configure graphics > .
Graphics Builder opens the Facility manager dashboard graphic in a new tab.
3. In Graphics Builder, select MENU > SAVE AS GRAPHIC, enter a unique file
name and click SAVE.
Note: You are not prevented from assigning the same graphic name to multiple
graphics.
The new file name displays in the tab for the graphic.
② Setting up energy and maximum power demand (bar and line chart)
Two trended data points must be added to the Energy and maximum power demand
bar and line chart: one for energy consumption, and one for energy generation.
ⓐ Adding a trend definition for online trended objects
If the trend is already defined, skip to
ⓑ Adding a trended data point to the Energy and
Water layers
.
Note
To add a trend definition for offline trended objects, you must use the commissioning
program for the device, such as ABT Pro, and then download the objects to the
automation station.
In the Operation application, Trends is selected in the core function pane.
1. Select > > Configure trend definitions > .
2. Navigate through the building hierarchy and select the object(s) to trend.
Only objects that currently do not have a trend definition are displayed.
