System Configuration - Sensors

During the Synergy installation process a default Site will have been created you can Edit the details for the default site, see the Sites section. The first time you run Synergy the front or opening screen will look something like Figure 345 below.

Before you can start monitoring you will need to add some sensors to Synergy.

The front overview screen gives an overall view of the system; Sites can be added to the front screen or Dashboard up to six Sites can be added to the Dashboard, the Sites that are displayed on the Dashboard would normally be the primary Sites.

Each main Site can have up to six Sub Sites which gives a total of 36 Sites that can be displayed on the Dashboard. For larger systems Sites can be viewed in a Text View format. See Figure 346 below.

Sensors added to a Site can be sub divided into Zones; Zones are viewed in a familiar Windows style tree, see 347 below.

Zones allow large systems to be sub-divided into logical groups of sensors.

Zones can also be used when granting viewing Privileges. When a Site contains many sensors just granting Privileges for a whole site could still lead to a single User being overloaded with data that doesn’t relate to that User. Zones can be allocated to users as well as Sites.

Individual sensors can’t be allocated in Privileges only Sites and Zones, there is no practical limit to the amount of Zones that can be added to the system. To allocate an individual sensor to a User add a Zone for that sensor.
