Who is this for? Venue admins, IT admins, and biomed technicians responsible for maintaining Theator equipment.
What Is the Incidents Dashboard?
The Incidents Dashboard is your central hub for managing equipment alerts. It shows all active and recently resolved incidents across your venue, with tools to filter, investigate, and take action.
Navigate to System > Monitoring > Overview to access it.

Dashboard Layout
The dashboard has three main sections:
- Metrics Bar — Summary cards showing incident counts and resolution time
- Active Incidents — All currently open incidents (triggered and acknowledged)
- Resolved Incidents — Recently closed incidents, collapsible by time period
Metrics Bar
Four summary cards appear at the top:
| Card | What It Shows | Color |
|---|---|---|
| Open | Incidents not yet acknowledged — needs immediate attention | Red |
| Acknowledged | Incidents someone is working on | Blue |
| Resolved | Incidents fixed in the selected time period | Green |
| Avg Resolution | Average time from triggered to resolved | Gray |
Below the cards, a By Venue breakdown shows incident counts per venue, helping you identify problem sites.
Active Incidents
This section shows all incidents with status Triggered or Acknowledged. Active incidents are always visible regardless of date filters.
Use the status tabs to narrow your view:
- All — Every active incident
- Triggered — New incidents waiting for someone to respond
- Acknowledged — Incidents someone is already handling
On desktop, incidents appear in a sortable data table. On mobile, they display as cards.
Resolved Incidents
Below the active section, a collapsible Resolved section shows incidents that were closed within your selected time period. The header shows the count and time range, e.g., "RESOLVED — Last 7 days (23)".
Filtering Incidents
Use the filter bar at the top to focus on what matters:
| Filter | Options | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Venue | Dropdown with autocomplete | Show incidents from a specific venue |
| Room | Dropdown (admin only) | Show only incidents from specific rooms |
| Location Type | All Types, Room, Tower/Cart | Filter by where the issue occurred |
| Issue Type | Unit Offline, Cable Disconnected, Pedal Disconnected, No Signal, No Unit Present | Filter by type of equipment issue |
| Time Scope | Today, Yesterday, Last 7 days, Last 30 days, Custom | Control which time period to analyze |
Filters persist in the URL, so you can bookmark or share a filtered view with your team. Click Clear Filters to reset.

Viewing Incident Details
Click any incident row (or card on mobile) to open the Incident Detail Drawer. This shows:
- Status — Current state with color indicator
- Incident Number — e.g., "#2451"
- Location — Venue name, room or cart name
- Created — When the incident was triggered
- Affected Unit — Name of the equipment involved
- Issue Details — Description of the problem
- Last Seen — For cart incidents, where and when the cart was last detected
At the bottom, you'll find action buttons and a View Troubleshooting Guide link that opens the step-by-step guide for that specific alert type.

Acknowledging an Incident
When a new incident comes in, acknowledge it right away so your team knows someone is on it.
- Click the incident to open the detail drawer.
- You'll see a yellow banner: "Please acknowledge this incident first so your team knows you're working on it."
- Optionally type a note (e.g., "Heading to OR 3 now").
- Click Acknowledge.
You can also quick-acknowledge from the table by clicking the Ack button on the incident row.
Resolving an Incident
After fixing the issue and verifying the fix on the Monitoring pages:
- Open the incident detail drawer.
- Type a resolution note describing what you found and did (e.g., "SDI cable was loose at port 1. Re-seated cable.").
- Click Resolve.
The incident moves to the Resolved section.
Tips
- Start your day here — Check for any overnight incidents that need attention.
- Use venue filters if you manage multiple sites to focus on your location.
- Always add notes when acknowledging and resolving — this helps your team learn from recurring issues.
- Check Avg Resolution time to track how quickly your team responds to alerts.
