Set up a wallboard TV and tablet stations

The wallboard shows every active machine on one screen: its state, the order that runs on it and the reason for a stop. A tablet station is a floor tablet that belongs to one machine. You pair both kinds with the same steps: make a code on the Devices page, then enter the code on the screen.

Open Production > Machine monitoring > Devices. A person with view access to Production or to Settings can see the list. Only the Org admin, or a person with full access to Settings, can add a device, make a new code or revoke a device.

Add a tablet stationCopy Anchor Link

The tablet tells the app that it is alive when it opens and every 5 minutes. The Last seen column shows the last time.

Read the wallboardCopy Anchor Link

Each tile is one machine. The word and the colour of the state always show together.

1. 1State and how long the machine has held it.
2. 2The order, the good parts against the quantity, and the scrap.
3. 3A stop: how long it lasts and the reason.
4. 4The time of the last update.

The number next to the state is how long the machine has held it. Under it, the tile shows the order, the product, the good parts against the quantity, the scrap and the due date. When the machine is stopped, a red box shows the stop reason and how long the stop has lasted. The text No reason yet means that nobody has answered the question on the tablet.

The wallboard asks for new data every 15 seconds. If the data is more than 60 seconds old, an amber band at the top says Data is old and the time of the last good update. The screen keeps trying and removes the band when the data comes back.

Use the wallboard without pairingCopy Anchor Link

A signed-in person who can see the floor or production can open /board in a browser. Add ?area= and a work area to see only that area, for example /board?area=Moulding hall. This view reads the same data as a paired TV.

Make a new code or revoke a screenCopy Anchor Link

• Choose New code on a row to pair the screen again, for example after you move it. The old code stops, and the screen that held it stops at once.
• Choose Revoke to stop a screen for good. The app asks you to confirm. A revoked screen shows This screen is not paired.
