Site details

The Site Details provides at a glance the status of all deployed Silvanet devices in a Site and shows, if triggered, which Wildfire Sensor has triggered a Fire Alert.

The Site details page provides insights into all aspects of an added Site. Use it to:

  • Access to the Pre-Planning Tool which generates a set of deployment Packets used by installers to deploy Silvanet devices.

  • Monitor the Site and to view environmental data provided by the deployed Wildfire Sensors.

  • Locate which Wildfire Sensor(s) has detected a fire using the provided geolocation of the Sensor.

The Site details page is accessible from the Dashboard, Sites view and Map view.

User role

Site information

Site ID

After a Site is created, it is assigned a Side ID which cannot be changed. You can find the Site ID in the URL of the Site as well as part of breadcrumbs on a Site details page.

To learn how to create a Site, see "Create a Site" in Sites view.

Site name and organization

The Site name and Organization to which the Site belongs is shown in the line below the Site ID.

An Organization can be created when creating a new Site. See "Create a Site" in Sites view.

Ellipsis menu

Select the Ellipsis menu to access the following Site tools:

  • Planning: Opens the legacy tool used to prepare one or more deployment Packets.

  • Edit: Opens the Edit Site dialog used to rename the Site.

  • Pre-Planning: Opens the Pre-Planning Tool used to rapidly generate Site details such as coverage area, number and placement of Border and Mesh Gateways as well as number and placement of Wildfire Sensor. The result is a set of deployment Packets available in the Silvanet Deployment app.

Deployed devices summary

Under the Site name, you can quickly see how many Silvanet Border Gateways, Mesh Gateways and Wildfire Sensors are Active, Inactive and/or triggering Fire Alerts.

Embedded map

An embedded Site map allows you to easily navigate around the Site and get an overview of the Site's terrain without leaving the Site details page.

Use the tools to expand the map, toggle on/off 3D Map View, Fire Risk View and more.

To learn how to use the embedded map, see Map view.

Device Overview

Device Overview provides access to the status of each deployed Silvanet device. Devices are sorted into Active, Inactive, Calibrating and Fire Alert. Troubleshooting messages are displayed when expanding a device that shows alerts or warnings.

If the Silvanet devices have not been deployed for a Site, the Device overview section is blank. As soon as the devices have been deployed using the Deployment app and are sending data to the Silvanet Cloud, devices appear.

  • Expand icon: Expand to display device information and data from the device shown as line graphs. Select the duration for the line graph from the Time dropdown (6 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours, 3 days or 10 days).

  • Device (sortable - no): Device type icon. Any alerts and warnings are overlaid on the icon.

  • Name (sortable - yes): Device name assigned to the device during deployment planning. This cannot be changed.

  • Status (sortable - no): See below.

  • Connectivity (sortable - yes): Shows the device's level of signal strength based on RSSI (Receive Signal Strength Indicator) at the nearest Mesh Gateway.

  • Energy (sortable - yes): Shows the energy level of a Wildfire Sensor's supercapacitors.

  • Firmware version (sortable - yes): Current version of the firmware running in the device.

See Status Icons for an explanation of icon types.

Status (only after deployment)

  • Calibrating (Wildfire Sensors): The Wildfire Sensor is in calibration mode, which takes 14 days after deployment. During this period, the Sensor does not provide reliable data and alerts.

  • Active (all devices): Indicates Silvanet Cloud can reach these devices and are sending data to the Silvanet Cloud.

  • Pending (all devices): The device is currently experiencing delays in sending environmental data to the Silvanet Cloud. However, the device is still monitoring the environment. Fire detection is still operational.

  • Inactive (all devices): Indicates device is not reachable. May be due to connectivity and/or charging issues. These issues need to be resolved immediately to ensure the device returns to Active state.

  • Fire Alert (Wildfire Sensors): Indicates a Wildfire Sensor has transmitted an alert. This also appears as a blinking icon in the app's Title Bar.

Troubleshooting messages

If a device is not responding as expected, alert or warning icons are displayed which notify the user of an underlying issue that needs to be resolved. Expanding device details provides troubleshooting information.

See Troubleshooting for a complete list of troubleshooting messages.

The following shows an example Alert which need to be immediately resolved to ensure the device continues normal environmental monitoring.

For details, see the section "Alerts" in Troubleshooting.

The following shows an example Warning which should be resolved as soon as possible to allow the device to return to normal functioning.

For details, see the section "Warnings" in Troubleshooting.

Additional information that do not require user-interaction but affect device performance are provided as well.

A key exception is the Device Calibration notification. It indicates the Wildfire Sensor is currently in calibration and needs to complete (14 days) before the device is ready for environmental monitoring.

Device data

Each Silvanet device sends data to the Silvanet Cloud. This data is then displayed as line graphs for a selected time period.

The default period is 24 hours. Select a time period for the displayed data sent in a range of 6 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours, 3 days or 10 days.

Device info

Selecting Device Info opens the Technical details page which provides the following information about the device.

Metadata tab

  • Name: User-readable Device ID.

  • Notes (editable): If a note was added during deployment, it appears here. Otherwise, a note can be added by making the field editable.

Location tab

  • Installed device location (editable): Provides current GPS coordinates (Latitude/Longitude) set during deployment. If the device has been moved, update the GPS coordinates in these fields.

Update GPS location after relocating a device

If a Silvanet device has been relocated from its deployed location, its GPS coordinates (latitude and longitude) needs to be updated. This can occur when a tree on which a sensor is attached falls or if a pole on which a Mesh Gateway is deployed must be moved. The GPS coordinates of a device can be easily changed.

Technical Info tab

  • Sensor ID: Identifies the device in the Silvanet System.

  • EUI: 64-bit Extended Unique Identifier.

  • Join EUI: Internal use only.

  • LoRaWAN PHY Version: PHY Version.

  • LoRaWAN Version: MSC version corresponding to the PHY Layer version.

  • Device Address: 32-bit device address (non-unique).

  • Firmware Version: Indicates which version (and related Region) installed on the device.

  • ML Version: Indicates which Machine Learning (ML) firmware applied to the device.

  • NS End Device ID: LoRaWAN Network Server (NS) End-Device ID.

Sensor Data tab

Display the sensor data based on a selected time range. This is the same data as displayed in Device Details.
