View and filter a zone’s components in Boss’nX

The page of a Boss’nX zone shows one card per component in the zone, with its datapoints: measurements, states and commands. From there you search for a component by name or type, collapse the cards and open a component’s detail.

Intended for users, administrators and installers signed in to a supervision, opened directly or from the hypervision. The visible content depends on the account’s scope.

Open the zone page

1. Choose Building, then the By floor tab. Find the building part and the floor with the topology landmarks.
2. Click the zone name in its card.
3. Check the name displayed as the title and the attachment shown just below it.
4. Browse the component cards of this zone.

No floor assigned indicates that no floor is associated with the zone. The subtitle then shows a building part or Sans rattachement (not attached, shown in French). This marker describes the zone’s attachment, not the state of its components: it does not indicate an offline component.

The back arrow, at the top left, returns to the previous page. On a narrow screen, its text is hidden but the arrow remains. To return explicitly to the topology, choose Building, then the By floor tab.

Search for a component in the zone

1. Click Filtrer (filter).

2. In Search, enter the component name in Filter by name…. The search is approximate: it may keep names close to what you typed.

3. In Component types, select one or more types if needed. Selected buttons turn blue.

   

4. Check the remaining cards: each one matches the search and one of the selected types.

With no type selected, all types in the zone are retained. Click a type again to remove it. Reset, in this panel, clears the search and the type selection.

Closing the panel with Filtrer keeps its criteria. If no card remains visible, reopen it and click Reset before concluding that a component is missing.

This search covers the names of the components in the open zone. To find another zone, use the topology search.

Collapse the cards and see all datapoints

The cards are expanded when the page opens. Each row represents a datapoint of the component: a measurement, a state or a command, depending on its configuration and your permissions.

Action	Result
Collapse on a card	Keeps a preview of two datapoints and shows the number of hidden datapoints.
Expand on a card	Shows its datapoints again, up to fifteen on this page.
Replier tout (collapse all) or Déplier tout (expand all)	Applies the action to the cards retained by the current filters.
View more (… hidden datapoint(s))	Opens the component detail so you can see the rest.
Component name or View details icon	Also opens its detail.

A card with two datapoints or fewer has no collapse button. The global button does not reflect collapses made card by card: the state of a card is shown by its own button. After changing the filters, use Expand on the card you are interested in if needed.

Datapoints hidden by your permissions stay hidden, including after View more. If an expected datapoint is still missing, ask your administrator to check the component and your scope.

To read all the rows and choose the right control, see a component’s detail and command troubleshooting.

Use the other zone actions

• Displayed values opens the choice of the three values on the zone card.
• History, when available, opens the commands recorded for this zone.
• Create QR access appears depending on topology management permissions. To choose the authorized components and generate an access, follow creating a QR code. The presence of this button does not change the command permissions on the components.

Troubleshooting

• On a narrow screen, the cards are arranged in a single column and the row of actions near the title may be wider than the visible area. If Filtrer, History or Displayed values is out of reach, use a wider screen.
• Zone not found.: choose Back to topology, then explicitly select the By floor tab and find the zone again.
• For an empty card, a missing datapoint or an unexpected card value, follow the zone viewing troubleshooting guide.

Contact support

If the zone still cannot be found or if these checks do not solve your problem, write to support@can-nx.com with the supervision, the zone you are looking for, your profile and the visible message.

French labels: Replier, Déplier, Voir les détails, Voir plus. The Filtrer, Replier tout and Déplier tout buttons stay in French in the English interface.
