Overview

The Metric Logs page in the Zequenze ControlCONTROL Portal provides a comprehensive view of all metric data collected from various devices and sensors in your fleet. This centralized logging system displays real-time and historical metric information, allowing administrators to monitor system performance, track data collection activities, and troubleshoot connectivity issues across their IoT infrastructure.

Key Features

  • Real-time Metric Monitoring: View live data streams from connected devices and sensors
  • Historical Data Access: Browse through timestamped metric logs with detailed filtering options
  • Multi-parameter Tracking: Monitor various data types including networkpackage metrics,management upgradeoperations operations,(ignored, andremoved, datainstalled, transferupgraded, measurementspending upgrades)
  • Advanced Filtering: Filter logs by date/time, element, location, profile, parameter, and other parametersorganization
  • Data Export Capabilities: Export metric data for external analysis and reporting
  • Pagination Support: Navigate through large datasets efficiently with pagination controls

      Notes/Tips

      Performance Optimization

      • Use specific filters to reduce large dataset load times
      • Consider exporting data for complex analysis rather than processing in-browser
      • The default "Last hour" filter helps focus on recent activity
      • Use the refresh button to ensure you're viewing the most current data

      Data Interpretation
