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 Also

For a detailed description of troubleshooting solutions, see .

Alerts - Inactive status

Device not reachable. May be due to connectivity and/or charging issues. These issues need to be resolved immediately to ensure the device continues normal environmental monitoring and returns to Active state.

See Also

For more information, see Alerts in .

Warnings - Pending status

Silvanet 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.

Warning should be resolved as soon as possible to allow the device to return to normal functioning.

See Also

For more information, see Warnings in .

  • User Management view

    User Management view allows administrators to add new users, delete users and assign user roles.

    User types

    Access to the Site Management app requires user credentials. Access to features of the app is dependent on the type of user role:

    • Standard User: Users with a Standard role can do the following:

      • Select from Sites to which they have access

      • Use the Planning tool to plan Sites

      • Cannot add new Sites

      • Cannot add new users

    • Admin: Users with an Admin role are responsible for team organization. Admins can do the following:

      • Create new users and assign them to an Organization

      • Create new Sites

      • Use the Planning tool to plan Sites

    • Reseller: Users with a Reseller role have overall responsibility for client access to Dryad apps. Resellers can do the following:

      • Create new Organizations

      • Create Admin users and add them to Organizations

    The following table shows an overview of the roles and rights:

    Reseller
    Reseler
    Admin
    Standard

    Organizations

    User role

    Organizations typically represent a company or client using a Dryad Silvanet System to provide ultra-early wildfire detection for the client's Site or Sites. They are usually created by Resellers for their Clients. They can also be created by Dryad for specific clients.

    How Organizations work

    When a user is created, they are assigned to one Organization. A user cannot be part of multiple Organizations (see 1 in the figure below).

    If a user is created in an Organization with multiple Sites, they have access to all those Sites (see 2 in the figure below).

    When a Site is created, it is linked to at least one Organization which means multiple Organizations can be linked to a single Site. All users from all linked Organizations have access to the particular Site (see 3 in the figure below).

    Creating Organizations

    New Organizations can be created in the Create User form when adding a user.

    1. Select Create new Organization.

    2. Enter the name of the new Organization.

    Create user

    User role
