Dashboard - Color Codes
This tutorial will teach you about the information displayed on your Dashboard as well as how to understand the Color Coding that is used.
Your Dashboard is used to give a visual overview of your shop floor's efficiency. Color Coding helps give visual cues so that you can easily recognize which machines are running, and which ones are not running or are in down-time. They can also help you recognize which users are meeting their efficiency rates and whether they have inspections due.
Information Displayed
For each Machine you have created in your system, your Dashboard will display the following information: The Machine Name & Machine Number, the Job Number, the Operator running the job, and the operator's Efficiency. If the machine is running it will display the time until the Next Inspection. If the machine is in Down-Time, it will display the Downtime Code.
Color Codes
Box Color
The background and border color of the machine box indicates whether a machine is running or is in Down-Time.
Green: Machine is running job(s)
Gray: Machine is not running any jobs
Orange: Machine is in Down-Time
Highlight Color
The highlighting color of the machine efficiency indicates whether or not an operator is reaching their efficiency goals. The next inspection highlight color will indicate whether an inspection is waiting for the next inspection, if its inspection is past due, or if no inspections are expected (for example: if the machine is not running or is in Down Time).
