Adding cards
Dashboards are made up of interactive cards. There are currently two supported card types, Single sensor cards, and Multiple sensor cards. All sensor types can be added as a single-sensor card.
For multiple-sensor cards, the following options are available::
| Card type | Sensor type allowed | Number of sensors allowed |
|---|---|---|
| Temperature card | Temperature, Temperature Probe, Humidity and CO2 sensors¹ | up to 10 sensors |
|
Humidity card |
Humidity and CO2 sensors² | up to 10 sensors |
| Open doors and windows | Proximity and Door & Window sensors | up to 100 sensors |
| Occupied desks | Desk Occupancy sensor | up to 1000 sensors |
| Occupied rooms | Motion sensors | up to 100 sensors |
¹ Shows only temperature readings from Humidity and CO2 sensors
² Shows only humidity readings from the CO2 sensors
CO2 sensor temperature and humidity readings?
To view the temperature and humidity data from your CO2 sensors in a graph, please refer to our instructions.
To add a new card, select Create new card:
- Choose card type (single or multiple sensors)
- Pick sensor(s)
- Choose a name for the card (optional)
- Set card size
- Click Add to dashboard
You will find the newly created card in the first available position on the dashboard.

Reordering and resizing
Dashboards are based on a simple grid layout with four columns and an adjusting number of rows. You can resize cards by dragging the corners. Also, you can reposition cards by grabbing the top section of the card.
Exploring data
The dashboard enables quick and intuitive data exploration by viewing sensors in context to one another. All the cards share a tooltip and x-axis, making detecting deviations or changes across sensors easier. Zooming is done by clicking and dragging the mouse to highlight a specific area in a card. Doing this will update the x-axis for all the cards.
Tip - Fullscreen mode
You can set dashboards to fullscreen mode by clicking the fullscreen button in the top right-hand corner. You can also scale the dashboard up or down by using standard browser zooming (CMD or CTRL and +/-) to create the perfect view.
