How do I create and manage readings tables on a dashboard?

FarmRoad Data Studio allows you to easily create and manage your readings tables on any dashboard.

Creating a current readings table

1. Go to your configurable dashboard page

2. Click 'Add graph or widget' button at the bottom of the page.

You will be presented with the option to select the type of graph or widget that you want:

Select the current readings option. 

You will be asked to give the table a name: 

Adding sensors to a readings table

1. Select the sensors that you want in the table

2. You can search for the name of the sensor or select them from the drop-down

3. Choose as many sensors as you want in the table
4. Select 'Done'

What Readings Are Available In a Current Readings Table?

The current readings table will show an up-to-date snapshot of your sensors.

If your sensors have not reported back in the last 5 minutes the table will show no readings. 

If your sensors are reporting back, the table can show the following readings:

1. Air Temperature
2. Relative Humidity 
3. Barometric Pressure 
4. CO2
5. PAR (Photosynthetically Available Radiation) 
6. RAD (Solar Radiation)
7. Plant Temperature
8. Estimated VPD (Calculated using Air Temperature and Relative Humidity) 
9. Actual VPD (Calculated using Plant Temperature and Relative Humidity) 
10. Dewpoint
11. Moisture (Volumetric Water Content)

Creating a historical readings table

1. Go to your configurable dashboard page

2. Click 'Add graph or widget' button at the bottom of the page.

You will be presented with the option to select the type of graph or widget that you want:

Select the historical readings table option. 

You will be asked to give the table a name:

4. Select 'Done'

Set a Historical Time Range 

1. Select the calendar icon 

2. Select a date range 

3. Select 'Done'
   

Your Historical Readings Table will now show readings for the set time/date range:

What Readings Are Available In a Historical Readings Table?

The historical readings table will show minimum and maximum readings for several different readings. 

The historical readings table will also show calculated readings such as accumulated solar radiation or DLI (daily light integral).

If your sensors have not reported data during the set time range the table will show no readings. 

If your sensors are reporting back, the table can show the following readings:

1. Air Temperature (Min/Max)
2. Relative Humidity (Min/Max)
3. Barometric Pressure (Min/Max)
4. Plant Temperature (Min/Max)
5. Estimated VPD ((Min/Max)
6. Actual VPD (Min/Max)
7. Dewpoint (Min/Max)
8. Plant Temperature (Min/Max)
9. Moisture (Min/Max)
10. Average CO2
11. Accumulated Solar Radiation 
12. Accumulated PAR 
13. Daily Light Integral
