Introduction
The Aquana Web Application (Aquana Web) is the primary user interface into the Aquana Platform. It provides the ability to manage, configure, and control devices, setup operating rules, view and manage device alerts, and oversee user administration. This article is meant to provide an introduction to the structure and function of Aquana Web. Links are embedded to more detailed knowledge base articles on specific processes and use cases.
Dashboard
Upon logging in, you will see the main “Dashboard”, which has an overall summary of the devices in your platform account. There is an Alerts summary, and a view into historical device activity that includes Alerts, Commands, and Check-ins. If your platform account includes water meters, the dashboard will also show a water consumption summary. The historical information will also include a list of meter readings.

Devices
Selecting “Devices” brings up a list of device locations within the platform account. Selecting a location will bring you to that location’s Location Dashboard. This dashboard is where all device management functions are located. Devices can be managed individually, or in batches. See knowledge base articles Finding a device in Aquana Web and How to Issue a Batch Command for detailed instructions on executing these tasks.
Map
The Aquana platform supports the process of geolocating devices within your Platform Account. This is an optional configuration activity. If your devices have been geolocated, selecting "Map" brings up the Map of Devices screen which displays a satellite image with device locations superimposed on it. Clicking on a device icon will bring up a mini Location Dashboard. From here you can select a device and go to the Device Details screen to further manage the device functions and access specific data about the device.
Reports
Selecting "Reports" brings up a list of pre-configured reports that will show multiple aspects of device status and activity.
Settings
"Settings" brings you to the core function of Aquana Web where Platform Account setup, device setup and configuration, alert parameters, and user administration are all accomplished. See the Knowledge Base article Aquana Web Settings for specific instructions on how these settings are managed.
