Smart Widgets

Create widgets that work for you

Visualytik Smart Widgets enables you to re-use widgets you have configured. You can also create libraries to store all of your widgets. Smart widgets are essential in speeding up your workflow when creating dashboards.

  • With Visualytik’s Smart Widgets you can create libraries for all of your most commonly used widgets.

  • You can then use these Widgets on any page to save you from having to repeat the same logic over and over again.

Smart Widgets are very easy to set up!

  • Create a Widget you need

  • Copy all of the logic for that widget

  • Create a new Smart Widget

  • Paste the logic into the Smart Widget logic

  • Replace the record getter with an InPort

  • Add a widget to display the logic

To set up a Component

  • Go through all of the Same steps as when making a smart widget
  • Use OutPorts instead of the graphic widget.

Using this method you can quickly and easily convert your widgets to smart widgets.

If you’d rather make graphics and reuse logic then you can use Components. These are similar to Smart Widgets except they have no image associated with them.

Utilizing Visualytik’s Smart Widgets and Components will allow you to greatly speed up your workflow when making Pages.

Cluster Aware HayLink

Bind Values with Haystack Tags

Visualytic comes fully equipped to automatically bind your widgets to points using haystack tags. This feature will do most of the heavy lifting for you.

  • With Visualytik’s Cluster Aware Haylink you can drag any point onto your widgets and it will automatically bind that point to that widget.

  • The beauty of it is that you don’t have to make the logic for that point. Just by dragging that point onto the widget, It will set up the logic for you.

  • This makes setting up your own custom dashboards quick and efficient

4D Heatmaps

Create Compelling 4D Heatmaps

Visualytik 4D Heatmaps gives you an idea of what is possible with visualytik. For this example,you can make a 4D heatmap that will show the data in your building in a unique yet readable way.

By utilizing our 3D Scatter map, you can create a 4D representation of your data.

Using this model, you can create a heatmap of all your units in one graph and see which ones are too cold or too hot. When you hover over a point it will display which unit it’s referring to.

To 4D Heatmap

  • Take the points you want to represent and add a position tag to them.

  • Edit the position to be where it is at generally in the building

  • Use those positions and temps to create a heatmap Scatter plot.

If the steps above are done correctly, you will see a heatmap representation of your building marking where every room is and whether that room is too hot or too cold.

Using Visualytik you can create readable and useful heatmaps that are perfect for presentations.

Energy DVR

Watch your Data’s past history in Real Time

Visualytik’s Energy DVR feature allows the user to see their past data playback in real time. You can go back and watch a blip in your data and compare that to what other data. This feature will allow you to see your data as it really was as if it was live.

Visualytik allows you to be able to roll back the timeline for your data using custom nodes.

The most important of those nodes being the History Player Node. This is the node that will allow you to play through your history.

Using this node you can play back the history of any point on any graphical widget

such as a –

  • Chart

  • Gauge

  • Label

  • 3D Scatter Plot

You can even see this history play back on more than one object. So if you want to see your equipment animating while your graph is live you can. This allows you to roll back the clock and see any issues that happened while you were away.

Visualytik’s Energy DVR feature shows you just how complex you can get with your dashboards.

BasMaker

Show your equipment on your dashboard

Visualytik’s BasMaker gives you access to a huge library of assets that can be used to build a variety of equipment.

Visualytik’s BasMaker allows you to utilize the Animated Image Widget to create your equipment.

BasMaker gives you access to multiple frames to use so that your equipment can animate.

Visualytik’s BasMaker gives you the ability to create dashboards you know and love in SkySpark.

This makes dashboard creation much easier by providing all the graphics you need right out of the box.

To create an animated Widget

  • Create an Animated Widget

  • In Frame one select your beginning Frame

  • Fill in the rest of your frames

  • By default it should be playing

  • Control the playing value with your status point

  • It should only be playing when the status is true.

Populating

Give context to your points

Whether it be mapping out your thermostats onto floor plans or displaying where your VAVs are throughout your building, Visualytik’s Populating Feature will make your life easier.

How to give your points location values

  • Add your floorplan to a new Page

  • Drag heatmap points where your thermostats would be

  • Select the Populate Points wizard

  • Select which heatmap points you want to use

  • Select which points you want to map to those heatmap points

  • Your points should now have a position tag

  • This position tag can now be used to show thermostat Locations. They could also be used with the 4D heatmap for an accurate 4D representation of your data.

Visualytik’s Populating gives you the ability to create dashboards you know and love in SkySpark. This makes dashboard creation much easier by providing all the graphics you need right out of the box.
