System Navigation
i-Vu’s navigation tree makes system navigation a breeze. Access graphics, properties, schedules, alarms, trends, and reports for any piece of equipment by pointing-and-clicking in the navigation tree.

Floor Plan Graphics
i-Vu’s superb floor plan graphics display the status of multiple zones from a single view. Dynamic color ovals are provided as a standard means for providing a visual representation of the comfort level in each zone. Temperature values, zone names, and links to zones are automatically created for ease of navigation. Clicking on a color oval will allow you to zoom in on an individual zone for closer examination.

Equipment Graphics
i-Vu’s animated, interactive, and intuitive equipment graphics are just part of the package. Adjust setpoints via editable fields and graphical controls directly on the graphic. Real-time status values are updated regularly without having to refresh the page.

Flexible Scheduling
i-Vu’s superior scheduling interface is both graphical and hierarchical in nature. Define or view occupied, unoccupied, holiday, or override schedules by simply pointing and clicking to an area or piece of equipment in the navigation tree. Schedules are entered via intuitive graphical sliders and can be applied to areas such that all equipment underneath that area uses the same schedule. Schedule groups can be defined for added flexibility.

Alarm Management
i-Vu’s powerful alarming capabilities allow you to see alarm events in your entire system from a single screen. View, acknowledge, print, or delete alarms with ease. Search for specific alarms based on time and date. Send an e-mail, print, play an audio file, or pop-up a message when an alarm occurs. Alarms are easily sorted by date, type, or incident, allowing you to respond quickly to critical alarms while filtering out nuisance alarms. A system-wide alarms button is always present and changes color based on severity of alarms in the system.

Historical Trending
i-Vu’s automatic trending capabilities mean that a history of your equipment’s operation is being saved every 20 minutes without any special setup. Trends can be easily modified to sample at a different interval or on change of value instead. Trends are automatically stored for the last 7 days. Generate trend graphs for individual points, or view multiple points on one graph. Create a comparison trend graph that allows you to display up to four different trend graphs on the same page. Use arrow keys to pan the trend graph in different directions, or the Page Up/Down keys to zoom in and out on specific data. Copy trend data from the graph and paste it into Excel. With i-Vu’s extensive trend capabilities, troubleshooting your system has never been easier.
