Adding a command widget in the global dashboard
Once a command is added to a managed entity instance (device, asset, location), you can create a widget on the global dashboard based on this command, from which you can execute the command.
To create a command widget,
- Access the End Application.
- Select Dashboard in the left pane.
- Select the Dashboard you want to add the widget to. For this illustration, we will add it to the default global dashboard.
- Click Actions > Add Widgets.
- Select Commands in the widget type library of the New Widgets form.
- Click the type of command you want to include and click Proceed. For this illustration, the command widget Horizontal Slider widget for the Fan Speed command is selected, as the widget type should be the same as the command input type.
- Provide the required details in the appropriate fields. For this illustration, the model Smart Equipment, the instance Smart Fan, and the command Fan Speed are selected.
- Click Create.
A new command widget of the selected type will be added to the dashboard.
