Botway Menus Dashboard Robot Tiles - ResgreenGroup/Botway-Documentation GitHub Wiki

Current Location: Home->Botway Menus->Dashboard->Robot Tiles

Every client (Robot or Device) connected to BotWay will have a Tile on the left side of the Dashboard. Tiles show basic status about the client at a glance. Tiles for Robots show the Robot ID number, current Tag number, current Route number, battery status, and the current state of the Robot. The user can switch between displaying vehicle tiles or device tiles in this column by clicking on the "vehicle" tab or the "devices" tab at the top of the tiles column.

If logged in, the user may right-click to open a menu for the selected Robot with the following operations:

"Go" - Sends the Robot a "go" command.

"Stop" - Sends the Robot an immediate "Stop" command. "Stop" commands have the highest priority of any that the robot receives.

"Set Route" - Sets the robot's Route.

"Take Offline" - Takes the Robot offline. Note: the Robot will come back online if any message is received for the Robot

"Show Logs" - Shows the Robot's Job Data, Cycle information, and Status logs.

"Rename" - Renames the Robot.

"Remove" - Removes the Robot Tile from the list. Note: the Robot will reappear if the Robot reconnects

The "Show Logs" button will open a window that contains information about the robot. It includes 2 tabs; one that displays general information, time metrics, job data, and cycle data, and another tab that displays the status log. Both tabs are shown below.

The Status Log shows the history of the selected robot in the form of status messages. These messages are sent on every tag read, error notification, power-on, and status change. The status log is opened from the robot tiles when logged in as Admin. The number of lines to show in the Status Log can be changed in the Settings Menu.
