Each **connection** is presented as a separate block because connections may differ in: * tariffs and pricing currency, * consumption model and forecasting, * production and storage setup. For this reason, some metrics (especially percentages) are not safely "summable" across connections. ![](https://1824863031-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FWf3M0a04WuhvfEbAgXFl%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-9ead1ff0b87bcb98ac5d67c487bbac6ba2da7372%2FScreenshot_dashboard.png?alt=media) *** ### Dashboard metrics All Dashboard metrics show **today's totals** (midnight to now), but only for periods when the system was **STARTED**. **Note: STARTED vs STOPPED** If the Unwaste Robot was **STOPPED** for part of today, the Dashboard totals include only the time when it was **STARTED**. Time spent STOPPED is not recorded and cannot be reconstructed later. See [**Unwaste Robot Operation → Starting and stopping the Unwaste Robot**](/en/unwaste-robot-operation/system-operation.md#starting-and-stopping-the-unwaste-robot). Per connection, the Dashboard shows: * **Produced (Wh, kWh)** — Total electrical energy produced locally (for example, by a PV inverter) since midnight. * **Used (Wh, kWh)** — Shows the **total energy consumed** since midnight **by all devices in the installation**. This value represents the sum of energy used by all loads, **regardless of the energy source**. It includes energy drawn from the power grid, produced by solar panels, or supplied from an energy storage * **Self Sufficiency (%)** — How much of the consumed energy was covered by local production (directly or indirectly). This uses standard industry definitions. For precise computation, see *Inner workings → Self-use calculation*. * **Self Use (%)** — How much of produced energy was used locally instead of being exported. This uses standard industry definitions. For precise computation, see *Inner workings → Self-use calculation*. * **Energy Price (currency)** — The **current tariff price** for the connection. The displayed currency symbol is taken from connection configuration. **Important:** The system does not perform currency conversion. Having tariffs in different currencies is not supported. * **Unwasted (currency)** — Total monetary value of savings attributed to the Unwaste Robot. See *Inner workings → Savings calculation*. ### Alerts The Dashboard includes an **Alerts panel** for abnormal situations that the user should be informed about. ![](https://1824863031-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FWf3M0a04WuhvfEbAgXFl%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-e067b42a2ac98d6bdfe06638cadf5b23725d6f6c%2FScreenshot_dashboard_alerts.png?alt=media) ![](https://1824863031-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FWf3M0a04WuhvfEbAgXFl%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-286d24ee21631ec8df201c9271831115e359f1b4%2FScreenshot_Alert.png?alt=media) *** ### Monitoring alerts Separate from system **Alerts**, the Dashboard also shows **Monitoring Alerts** — user-configured threshold conditions on readings (for example low voltage or high temperature). Monitoring alerts are defined in configuration. See [Monitoring alerts](/en/unwaste-robot-configuration/optional-monitoring/monitoring-alerts.md). In Design mode, all defined monitoring alerts for a connection can be reviewed from the connection tile (**MONITORING ALERTS**). *** #### What alerts are Alerts represent operational issues such as: * failure to read from a device (missing sensor data), * failure to set an operating mode on a controlled device, * data failure (impossible or abnormal readings), * internet connection failures, * failures when reading **dynamic tariffs** (important because pricing directly affects cost optimisation). Alerts are meant to be actionable: they indicate that a part of the system may not be working correctly, or that optimisation decisions may be less accurate. *** #### Aggregation and muting To avoid repeated spam-like notifications: * Alerts are **aggregated**: * repeated occurrences of the same alert type are grouped, * the system reports the situation without producing a large number of identical messages. * Alerts can be **muted**: * a muted alert does not generate a notification, * it can still remain visible in the list for review. **Note:** A future mobile application may deliver alerts as **push notifications**. *** ### Details button The **DETAILS** button opens the detailed views for the selected connection (starting with **Energy Usage**). --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.unwaste.energy/en/unwaste-robot-operation/dashboard.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
