Dashboard (phone and cloud)
The Dashboard summarises your boat remotely on one screen: when it last sent data, the last supply voltage, trip duration, distance and average speed, your logbook and a chart with the track. On a tablet a wind rose and base wind are added. When you open it, it shows your last trip, from casting off to the next berthing, mooring or anchoring; if you are still under way, up to now. You use the Dashboard, when you connect the Hub to the cloud, for your own boat and for your Boat Buddies' boats. On board the Plotter takes over this role.
What you get
Remotely
| Tile | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Last seen (eye) | how long ago your boat’s last sign of life was, for example “3 minutes ago” |
| Supply voltage | the last reported voltage in volts |
| Trip duration, distance, average speed | length of the selected period, distance travelled in that period and average speed over ground while under way |
| Logbook | the entries of the selected period with a filter |
| Chart | track of the period, your berths, tacks and gybes, anchor watch, your Boat Buddies’ boats |
| Wind rose (tablet only) | from which direction the base wind blew in the period |
| Base wind (tablet only) | lowest, average and highest base wind in the period |
- In the header you see how your boat is connected (Wi-Fi or Hub cellular) and choose the period.
- Short ways: The eye shows up to when the data is transferred, separately for “Full sensor data synced until” and “Live sensor data synced until”. The supply voltage opens its history, wind rose and base wind open the Environment screen, the full-screen button the large chart.
- Period when opening: your last trip according to the logbook, from casting off to the next berthing, mooring or anchoring, or up to now if the trip is still running. If the logbook has no trip yet, the Dashboard shows the day your boat last sent data, otherwise the last 7 days.
- Your own period: In the time range selector you choose, for example, a calendar day or a logbook entry. Your choice applies until you open another boat, switch the connection or restart the app. Afterwards the Dashboard shows the last trip again.
On board
- On board the app opens the Plotter instead of the Dashboard. If you tap your boat and your Hub is reachable on the same Wi-Fi, the app connects to it directly.
How it works
- Open Menu › “Home” and tap a boat under “My Fleet” or “Buddy Boats”. If you are already connected to the boat, you find the Dashboard under Menu › “Dashboard”.
- The app connects to the Smartboatia Cloud over the internet and opens the Dashboard with the last trip.
- Tap the time range selector at the top right to see a different period.
Requirements
- Smartboatia ID, a boat in the cloud (your own or a friend’s) and internet on your phone or tablet.
- Your Hub is connected to the cloud and sends its data as soon as it has internet.
Permissions and subscription
- Owner and Boat Buddies see the same Dashboard. Nothing can be changed there.
- How up to date the Dashboard is depends on the boat’s subscription:
| Boat subscription | Last seen and supply voltage | Track, distance and charts |
|---|---|---|
| Without a subscription | every minute as long as the Hub has internet over Wi-Fi | with a delay of up to 6 hours |
| Standard subscription | also every 5 seconds; if the boat has no internet, the live state comes over Hub cellular, at most once per minute | after about a minute |
- Where Hub cellular is available, you see on the Hub cellular coverage map.
Notifications
None of its own.
Messages and special cases
| Situation | What you see |
|---|---|
| Cloud not reachable | “A connection to the Smartboatia Cloud is currently not possible.” The app keeps trying in the background. |
| No value available | ”-.-”, for course ”-” |
| Boat stops sending | “Last seen” keeps counting up, the supply voltage shows the last value |
| No trip in the period | Distance and average speed ”-.-” |
Offline behaviour
- The Dashboard needs internet on your phone or tablet.
- The app keeps tracks that have been loaded once in memory and shows them faster when you open the same period again.
- After an app restart the Dashboard shows your last trip again.
