Active Faults Panel

The Active Faults panel appears at the bottom of the dashboard screen. It displays faults as they are received by the Controller module. As such, it is a dynamic view, and may change rapidly as events are triggered and cleared.

When the Active Faults list is collapsed, it displays a narrow bar at the bottom of the interface. The bar displays the color of the worst active fault in the frame.

To open the Active Faults list, click the up arrow in the bottom right of the dashboard.
