Introduction
The Vutlan web interface provides users with a powerful and intuitive platform to manage and monitor a wide range of devices, sensors, and environmental systems. It's designed for ease of use while offering advanced features for real-time control and automation.
The Web UI is built-in into every Vutlan monitoring system and can be accessed by an IP address.
Key Features:
Dashboard Overview: Users can monitor live data from connected sensors and devices, providing instant visibility into environmental conditions, power systems, and other critical parameters.
Customizable Alerts and Notifications: Alarms can be configured to trigger notifications via email or SMS, enabling timely responses to system events or failures.
Logical Schemes: The interface allows users to create logical automation schemes to automate actions based on specific triggers (e.g., shutting down devices if temperature exceeds a threshold).
Historical Data & Logs: Access detailed logs of events and sensor data, helping with system audits, performance analysis, and troubleshooting.
Multi-User Access: Provides different permission levels for multiple users, ensuring secure and organized management across teams.
Remote Management: The web interface is accessible remotely, enabling users to manage and monitor systems from anywhere.
