A device's own page

See this on a live example →

Click any device — from the Devices list, a subsystem, the topology map or a switch's port — and you land on its own page. Every device page shares the same top; the panels lower down change to suit the kind of device. The left menu and top strip are the same as everywhere (see the Overview page).

The top, on every device

Panels that change by device type

Between the tiles and the Details, each device shows the panel that suits it:

A switch's device page
A switch. A picture of its ports — green where something is plugged in (with the PoE watts it's supplying), grey where empty, a purple outline on trunk/uplink ports — then a Connected devices table listing exactly what is on each port. Click a port to see what's on it.
A Wi-Fi access point's device page
A Wi-Fi access point. A Radios table (its 2.4 & 5 GHz lanes — channel, width, clients, airtime, retries, satisfaction), the SSIDs it broadcasts, and the clients currently connected with their signal strength.
A general device page
Everything else (a Lutron processor here, but the same for cameras, heating, a NAS, a UPS and so on). The shared top and tiles, then Details and its open ports.

Smart devices show a live control panel

Smart kit shows an extra panel built for it, read live from the equipment. Here are the ones in the demo:

A Lutron lighting control panel
Lutron (lighting). The processor and its keypads, which areas are occupied, the active scenes, and every lighting circuit with its current level shown as a bar.
A Crestron control-processor panel
Crestron (control processor). Uptime / CPU / RAM, the running program, and the Cresnet devices wired to it.
A Wiser heating panel
Wiser (heating). Each room’s current and target temperature (with an up/down arrow for calling for heat), plus battery and signal for every thermostat.
A NAS storage panel
NAS (storage). Overall health and temperature, each disk by slot with its status and temperature, and the shared folders.

Other integrations the box supports (Sonos, Apple TV, alarm and access panels, PDUs and so on) show their own panel in the same way on a real system.

You can't break anything by looking. The tools are safe, and anything that would actually change the device asks you first.
Still stuck? Your installer can see the same screens you can and sort most things remotely — there's a Support button inside your Horotics portal.
