Examples of using ARDI Data in Grafana

There are several ways you can use ARDI data in Grafana.

Each of these is illustrated in this example.

Queries

One of the most common ways of using ARDI data in Grafana is adding ARDI queries to a panel.

In the example, the data appearing in the charts is being taken from ARDI.

See some of the examples.

Variables

You can also use ARDI queries to load variables.

This is often done to load lists of assets so that you can build a single dashboard that can be switched between similar assets.

Variable TypeQuery
NameAsset
LabelAsset
Data SourceARDI Server
Query'Coil Entry' ASSET 'Coil' RELATIONSHIP 'downi' RELATED
SortDisabled

The list of oven zones in the top-right corner is being dynamically loaded from ARDI. If new oven zones are added to the system, they appear here automatically - no updates required.

Events

You can load ARDI events into Grafana as annotations.

Data SourceARDI Server
NameStaff Schedule
TypeEvents
MappingTime=start, End=end

The red zones are taken from the staff schedule event source. This and other events are easy to see, overlaid onto the charts.

Hover your mouse on the red strip at the bottom of the panel to see details such as the shift name.
