Tiles
The central items, the Tiles, show real-time data for different aspects of the system. Tapping a tile allows
access to status messages, historical data, and settings. The tiles have several common features.
o Banner. This appears at the top of each tile and includes a status message. The banner color also indicates
general status. See below.
o Chevron. This appears above each tile. It is only present when the item in the tile is active. It may point
either up
ward or downward. The chevron will point downward when power flows to that item
(solar, battery,
etc.). It will point upward when the item contributes power.
Tile color codes:
Item is in use and functioning normally
Item is functioning normally in an alternate mode or state from that indicated by green
Item is turned off and awaiting manual activation
Item is not available or not present
Item is faulted and cannot be activated until the fault is corrected
These color codes apply to both the banners, the chevrons, and the meter bars shown on many tiles.
