Battery Anti-Theft Dashboard

Overview​

The Battery Anti-Theft Dashboard is a security-focused monitoring view designed to protect battery assets from theft. It combines GPS tracking, motion/impact detection, and automated alarms to provide an end-to-end security workflow.

Key features​

  • Real-time GPS tracking - view device location on an interactive map
  • Motion detection - accelerometer-based detection of movement, rotation, lift/tilt, vibration, and impact
  • Automated alarms - instant notifications when suspicious activity is detected
  • Remote control - trigger a relay/actuator remotely (when supported by the device)
  • Configurable sensitivity - tune thresholds and response behavior to match your installation

Accessing the Dashboard​

  1. Log in to AITHA Portal.
  2. Open Dashboards from the main menu.
  3. Select AntiRobo-Baterias (name may vary depending on your tenant configuration).

Main Screen​

The main screen provides an overview of protected assets and active alarms.

Components​

1) Interactive Map​

The map shows the current (or last known) location of all your devices.

What you can do:

  • Device markers - each device appears as a marker
  • Status colors - typically green = online, gray = offline
  • Device labels - hover/tap to see a device name
  • Zoom controls - wheel/buttons to zoom in/out
  • Map layers - road / satellite / hybrid (depending on tenant setup)

Suggested workflow:

  1. Locate devices visually.
  2. Click a marker to open basic device info.
  3. Use the map to spot unusual locations or movement patterns.

2) Assets Card​

This card lists your assets (logical groupings/locations).

  1. Browse the assets list.
  2. Click an asset to select it.
  3. The devices list updates to show devices belonging to that asset.

3) Devices Card​

This card lists devices for the currently selected asset.

  1. Select an asset first.
  2. Click a device to open its detailed view.

4) Active Alarms List​

This section lists alarms currently active on your devices.

Typical fields:

  • Timestamp - when the alarm was triggered
  • Source - which device triggered it
  • Type - motion, impact, GPS movement, etc.
  • Severity - Critical / Major / Minor / Warning
  • State - Unacknowledged / Acknowledged / Cleared

Actions:

  • Open an alarm to see details
  • Acknowledge alarms you reviewed
  • Clear alarms that are resolved

Device Detail View​

When you select a device, you will see the detailed monitoring view.

Device Detail View

Location map​

Shows the specific location of the selected device.

GPS controls​

Enable/Disable GPS​

  • Toggle GPS tracking on or off.
  • Useful to reduce power consumption when GPS is not needed.

Request approximate location (WiFi)​

  • Request location based on nearby WiFi networks.
  • Useful when GPS is unavailable (indoors, dense urban areas).

WiFi-based location is usually less accurate than GPS, but can work indoors and may use less power.

Top bar controls​

1) Info button​

Shows raw telemetry coming from the device.

Common data:

  • GPS - lat/lng, signal status, motion flags
  • Accelerometer - accel/gyro X/Y/Z
  • Detection events - movement/rotation/lift/vibration/impact flags

Use cases:

  • Troubleshooting device behavior
  • Validating sensor readings
  • Understanding what triggered an alarm

2) Connectivity info button​

Shows network connectivity details.

Common data:

  • Connection state (online/offline)
  • Active link (WiFi / Cellular / Ethernet)
  • IP address
  • Gateway
  • MAC address

Use cases:

  • Verifying network setup
  • Checking failover behavior

3) Settings button​

Access calibration and sensitivity settings.

Settings​

Motion detection calibration​

Motion Calibration

Sensitivity sliders​

  • Motion sensitivity - how much movement triggers detection
  • Rotation sensitivity - how much rotation triggers detection
  • Lift sensitivity - how much tilt/lift triggers detection
  • Vibration sensitivity - how much vibration triggers detection
  • Impact sensitivity - how much shock triggers detection

Response sliders​

  • Motion response - how fast the motion detection reacts
  • Rotation response - how fast rotation detection reacts
  • Lift response - how fast lift detection reacts
  • Vibration response - how fast vibration detection reacts
  • Impact response - how fast impact detection reacts

Sensitivity and response work together:

  • Higher values = more sensitive / faster reaction
  • Lower values = less sensitive / slower reaction (fewer false alarms)

Rest position values​

These values represent accelerometer/gyro readings when the device is at rest in its normal position.

  • Rest X/Y/Z - baseline acceleration values
  • Rest Gyro X/Y/Z - baseline rotation values

Purpose:

  • Detects deviations from the normal position
  • Reduces false positives from environmental factors
  • Should be calibrated when the device is installed

GPS movement detection​

GPS Movement Detection Settings

Settings​

  • Initial GPS position - the expected/normal location (installation site)

    • Latitude/longitude used as a reference
    • Some tenants allow auto-fill from a device that currently has GPS fix

  • Movement threshold - distance (meters) that triggers a movement alarm

    • Smaller values = more sensitive
    • Larger values = only detects significant displacement

Example:

  • Initial position: installation site (-34.603722, -58.381592)
  • Threshold: 50 meters
  • Alarm triggers if the device moves more than 50m away

Device alarms card​

Shows alarms specifically for this device.

Recommended workflow:

  1. Acknowledge new alarms after you review them.
  2. Clear alarms only after the underlying cause is resolved.
