Overview
In order to access objects, click the “Objects” link on the left menu.
Objects section allows you visually draw zones and place loggers on an uploaded sketch image.
Name and description refers to the object you are creating, it is for your identification only. You can also assign an object to a specific organization.
A scheme refers to an image sketch you will use to place your loggers and zones on.
Priority means the order in which the scheme will be presented. It is possible to add more than one scheme per object.
-
Click the “Add new object” button and after seeing a confirmation message click the “Assign Loggers” tab at the top.
Now we will add the loggers on the scheme. First though I would like to give you a quick overview of the visual panel.
Make sure you have selected a right scheme name at the top.
-
In order to draw a zone, first select a zone name.
-
Now select the way you would like to draw the zone on the scheme image (that is as a rectangle or a polygon).
-
Now, draw the zone on the image. Just hold your left mouse button on the sketch and stretch.
-
Release once you are satisifed with the size and position.
Notice that after dragging a logger to a zone, it has been marked as being with the “Blulog demo” badge on the right. The used logger block will also appear a bit greyish on the right signifying that it has already been used.
Also, you will see the number added on the logger block. It signifies to which image scheme it belongs (you can see the image scheme names near the “Assign Loggers” title).
-
You can remove the logger from the image scheme by clicking it first.
-
Click the “trashbin” icon in the window.
-
A new window should pop up. On a new window click the “Confirm” link.
-
Once finished, click the “Add new object” button at the bottom. You can go back to the previous screen by clicking the “left arrow” icon at the top left or “Cancel” button at the bottom.
-
In order to edit an object, first click on the “pen” icon. A new page should appear where you can edit the information.
-
Once you are finished, click the “Save” button.
