Designation

meaning

Active / Inactive

The sensor is active and sends events or the sensor is inactive and does not send any events.

Desired firmware

Display of the sensor firmware version to be installed on the sensor.

Sensitivity Map

Green tick: A Sensitivity Map is uploaded to the sensor and is applied. The information in brackets indicates when the sensitivity map was last updated.
Orange cross: No sensitivity map is uploaded to the sensor.

Optimization mode

Green tick: The Optimization mode is active and information is being sent to the manufacturer for debugging purposes.
black cross: Optimization mode is not active.

Learning phase

green play symbol: the 14-day learning phase is active.
black square: The learning phase is not active.

Demo mode

Orange tick: The demo mode is active, so the intervals between the individual fall phases are reduced.
white circle: The demo mode is not active. The sensor acts at standard intervals.

Falling Mitigator

Green tick: The falling mitigator to prevention of false alarms in the event of falls is active.
White circle: The falling mitigator of false alarms is not active.

Test mode

Orange tick: The test mode is active, so that falls are taken into account as such when the sensitivity map is created.
white circle: The test mode is not active.

Sensitive mode

Green tick: The Sensitive mode for detecting falls with a small difference in height is active.
white circle: The sensitive mode is not active

Designation

meaning

Active / Inactive

The sensor is active and sends events or the sensor is inactive and does not send any events.

Installation check

The alignment is checked using an acceleration sensor.
green tick: The sensor is correctly aligned.
red cross: The sensor is incorrectly aligned and the installation must be corrected.

Monitored bed

white circle: no bed region has been created in the monitoring area or the information is not correct, so the sensor does not detect a monitored bed.
green check mark: a bed region has been created and the sensor detects a monitored bed.

Installation check

The sensor has an acceleration sensor to determine its alignment and correct installation. If the sensor is incorrectly aligned, this will be displayed and the installation must be checked.

Clicking on the arrow behind the message will display an installation guide that will help you correct the alignment.

Note: The acceleration sensor is slow, so it takes a moment for the values ​​to update.

Movement

The overview shows a distribution of movement in the current month. The darker the day, the greater the distance traveled on that day. Further information can be accessed by mouse-over.

Action

meaning

Reboot device

restarts the sensor

Cancel fall alarm

If the sensor is currently detecting a fall and reports an alarm, it can be canceled.

Backup logs

backs up the logs from the sensor to the cloud

Backup development logs

backs up the development logs from the sensor to the cloud

Change WiFi access point

changes the sensor’s wifi access data

Evaluate situation

providing feedback on the sensor's fall detection

NOVA-C

Action

meaning

Reboot device

restarts the sensor

Reboot radar

restarts the radar

Force Ping

Performs a connection check

Synchronize settings

The settings are synchronized between the cloud and the sensor

Change WiFi access point

changes the sensor’s wifi access data

Change WiFi access point

The sensor can be connected to another available WLAN access point (SSID) during operation. This requires the Sensor Management authorization and the sensor must be active at the time of the change.

Example for changing WiFi access point
Example for changing WiFi access point

Evaluate situation

With the evaluation of a situation, feedback can be given as to whether a fall was correctly detected, not detected or incorrectly detected.

Vayyar: If optimization mode is activated, the evaluation is forwarded to the vendor and taken into account when creating the sensitivity map.

Events

The events received from the sensor can be viewed and filtered in the chronologically sorted event list.

Example of the event list
Example of the event list

Event types

A sensor sends the following events, which are displayed in the chronologically sorted event list.

Event type

Meaning

Status

The sensor sends a status event every minute to signal that it is ready for operation.

Presence

The sensor sends a presence event once per minute or more frequently if it changes.

Fall

If the sensor detects a fall, there are four fall-type events: Detected, Confirmed, Calling and Finished.

Sensitive fall

If the sensor detects a person on the ground without recognizing the course of the fall, there are events of the Sensitive_Fall type: Fall_suspected, Calling und Finished.

Active

If the sensor was inactive and is sending events again, an active event is generated.

Inactive

If the sensor was active and no longer sends any events, an inactive event is generated.

Command

If a command (e.g. restart) is sent to the sensor, this generates a command event.

Configuration

As soon as a changed configuration is sent to the sensor, this generates a config_change event.

Analytic

Various analytical events are generated when the sensor is started.

Register

Every time the sensor is started, it registers with the cloud. A register event is generated.

Firmware

If the sensor carries out a firmware update, this generates a firmware event.

Leave bed

If the leave the bed function is activated in the configuration, there are separate events in this situation.

Door

If the door function is activated in the configuration, there are separate events in this situation.

Tracker target

Status changes and extended information about the presence event.

External event

Similar to Analysis type events.

Vital data

The sensor sends a statistical vital data event once per minute.

Unbekannt

All events that cannot be assigned are classified as unknown events.

Feedback

The feedback sent by the receiver is displayed in the sensor events.

Example in the sensor event list. The recipient has not provided any feedback.

Sample message in the events. The recipient gave negative feedback and thus did not confirm the correctness of the report.
Sample message in the events. The recipient gave negative feedback and thus did not confirm the correctness of the report.

JSON path

The path filter allows queries to be run on the content of an event. The JSON Path Language is used for this.

Example:

presenceDetected have to be true

exists($.payload.presenceDetected ? (@ == true))

Fall-Event-Status have to be fall_detected.

exists($.payload.status ? (@ == "fall_detected"))

presenceRegionMap should be in item “0” greater then 1

exists($.payload.presenceRegionMap."0" ? (@ >= 1))

Heatmap

In the heatmap tab, the positions with frequent presences and the locations of fall events are graphically displayed. The type and time period for displaying the heatmap can be selected.
