1. Overview
The Dashboard is the main control panel of the SolarMetrica platform. After users log into the system, they are first directed to the Dashboard screen. This screen enables fast and centralized monitoring of operational data belonging to solar power plants.
The Dashboard module allows users to view data from different plants in real time, analyze system performance, and obtain a quick overview of the operational status.
Within the platform, the Dashboard structure is fully customizable, and users can add or remove different data components (widgets) according to their needs.
The Dashboard screen includes the following core features:
- Plant-based inverter performance monitoring
- Real-time production data
- Daily and monthly production charts
- Alarm and fault information
- User-customizable widget structure
- Plant-based data filtering
With the Dashboard, users can monitor the entire system performance from a single screen after logging into the SolarMetrica platform.
2. Dashboard Layout
The Dashboard screen consists of three main sections:
- Left Navigation Menu (Sidebar)
- Dashboard Content Area
- User Control Area
This structure is designed to enable users to navigate quickly and easily within the system.
3. Sidebar Navigation
The navigation menu located on the left side of the platform provides access to the main modules of the SolarMetrica system. The sidebar includes the following main modules:
- Dashboard
- Map
- Plants
- Data
- Management
- OSOS
- Faults
- Alarms
- Custom Alarm
- Finance
Through this menu, users can quickly switch between different modules of the system. The Dashboard tab is active by default when logging into the platform.
4. Inverter Control Table
The Inverter Control Table on the Dashboard screen enables centralized display of inverter data belonging to plants. This table includes the following information:
- Plant name
- Inverter-based performance data
- Inverter production values
- System status indicators
Each row represents a plant, and the inverters within that plant are displayed as separate columns. With this structure, users can monitor all inverter performance from a single screen. The data is visualized with color codes:
- Green: Indicates normal operation.
- Yellow: Indicates performance values that require attention.
- Gray: Indicates that there is no data or no connection for the relevant inverter.
With this visual system, users can quickly detect performance drops that may occur in the system.
5. Dashboard Customization
The SolarMetrica Dashboard module has a customizable structure. Users can add different data components to the Dashboard screen or remove existing components according to their needs. Dashboard customization operations are performed via the following buttons:
- Edit Page: Activates Dashboard editing mode.
- Add Widget: Used to add new data components to the Dashboard.
6. Widget System
The Dashboard structure in the SolarMetrica platform has a widget-based architecture. Thanks to the widget system, users can add different data visualization components to the Dashboard screen. Available widget types are:
- Active Power: Graphically shows the instantaneous power production of the plant.
- Production Chart: Displays production data for the last 24 hours.
- Monthly Production: A chart component showing the monthly energy production of the plant.
- Inverter Data: Displays real-time data from inverters within the plant.
- Inverter Production: Shows energy production performance on an inverter basis.
- Inverter Control Table: Presents the status and production data of all inverters in a tabular format.
- Admin Panel: A management panel summarizing plant control and system status.
7. Widget Selection
To add a new widget to the Dashboard, users can use the Add Widget button. After this action, the system presents available widget options to the user. The user can select the desired widget type and add it to the Dashboard. On the widget addition screen, plant selection can also be made. In this way, users can create custom dashboard screens for specific plants.
8. Dashboard Editing Mode
When Dashboard editing mode is activated, users can perform the following actions:
- Add widgets
- Remove widgets
- Reorder widgets
- Create dashboard tabs
With this feature, users can create a monitoring screen fully tailored to their needs.
9. Dashboard Tabs
The SolarMetrica platform allows the creation of multiple dashboard tabs. Users can create separate dashboard screens for different use cases. Example use cases:
- Operations Dashboard: Used to monitor system performance.
- Production Dashboard: Used to analyze energy production data.
- Maintenance Dashboard: Used to monitor fault and alarm data.
To create a new dashboard tab, the user can use the "+" button.
10. User Profile Menu
There is a user profile menu at the top right corner of the Dashboard screen. This menu includes the following actions:
- View account information
- Language selection
- Sign out
This menu allows users to manage their account settings.
11. Real-Time Data Monitoring
The SolarMetrica platform has a real-time data monitoring infrastructure. The data displayed on the Dashboard is updated with instant data received from inverters and data collection systems in the field. With this structure, users can track plant performance in real time.
12. Summary
The Dashboard module is the central monitoring and control panel of the SolarMetrica platform. Through this screen, users can analyze all plant performance, examine inverter data, and monitor system status in real time. Thanks to the widget-based architecture, the Dashboard is fully customizable and can be configured according to different user needs.
