Highlights at a glance

Creating a Set of Main Sensors for a Device

The developer panel instance for business clients offers several features that differ from the public version at cloud.2smart.com. One of the new features now available to business clients is the ability to select up to 15 main sensors for each major version of a product.

To do this, use the “Main sensors” button on the product or firmware management pages. In the modal window that appears, select any sensors you need quick access to.

You can view the Main sensors for a device in the “Devices management” section of the Business Platform. Use the “Main sensors” option in the menu of the respective device.

An example of this feature’s use is the new ability to load a list of main sensors with a single click in the Basic widget setup modal window instead of manually selecting them.

Deleting Batches via the Admin Panel

Administrators can now delete unnecessary batches through the admin panel interface. To do this, click the “Batch statistics” button on the Devices management page, and in the modal window that appears, click the delete icon for the unwanted batch.

Minor Enhancements to Tables in Main Sections of the Admin Panel

In this update, we’ve made several visual improvements to the tables in the main sections of the Business Platform admin panel:

• The icon for selecting table columns has been changed from an Eye to a Settings wheel.
  
• The Active/Deleted switcher is now located in the “Advanced search” section.
  

New Widgets for Dashboards

We continue to enhance the functionality of the Business Platform dashboards. In this update, we’ve added two new widgets:

• Graph Widget for displaying historical sensor data dynamically.
  
• Map Widget for showing device locations on a map with filtering capabilities.
  

Enhancing the Device Management and Monitoring Page

The device management and monitoring page displays the current status of all sensors and their value histories, which can be accessed by clicking the “Open historical data” icon to the left of any sensor name. For enum, color, and string sensors, in addition to the historical values table, a visual representation in the form of a graph is now available.
