Lists with clickable columns

An effective navigation experience should enable DPS users to access information with a top-down approach, starting from high-level indicators and drilling down into detailed data as needed.
For example, given a list of products displaying various KPIs in each column, the ability to access a detailed view is essential to understand the reasons behind a specific value and to make informed decisions.

Within list-based widgets, you can now specify the path of the sub-page that opens when the DPS user clicks on a row or on a specific column value.

The widgets supporting this feature are: Thing List, Location List, Customer List, Partner List.

Actions manual creation

For a technician, the ability to manually add actions to a maintenance checklist is essential.
This allows them to track specific actions that are required during an intervention based on on-site observations, ensuring that nothing is overlooked and that the maintenance process is comprehensive and adapted to the actual situation.

In the Action List widget, DPS users can now manually create actions by selecting them from a predefined list of available actions.
Additionally, custom actions can be registered directly in DPS without a predefined action definition. This allows technicians to record all actions performed during a maintenance intervention, even if they have not been previously modeled in the Console.

New cumulative sum counter

Machines often include internal counters (e.g. number of pieces produced, material consumed). However, these counters may reset under certain conditions, such as when the machine is powered off.
To help you manage these raw metrics without implementing additional calculation logic like derived metrics, when defining Counter metrics in the console, you can now use a new counter type called Cumulative Sum.

This counter is designed to handle input resets intelligently, and it works by summing only the positive variations of the input metric.
In the event of a reset, it keeps accumulating the deltas, resulting in a continuously growing metric that preserves the total count over time.

Weather data pushing to remote products

Some products can use environmental data to optimize their operation, for example a boiler can calibrate its parameters based on the outside temperature.
Due to a lack of sensors, reading environmental data, especially if external, is not always easy, but thanks to third-party services it is possible to compensate for this lack.

The Open Weather Map plugin now allows you to configure the name of the thing-definition parameters to periodically send the environmental data (e.g. External Temperature, Humidity, Pressure) to the remote products.

Bug fixes (DPS)

• The Time Series Chart widget was not applying big number format into tooltips.

• When panning and zooming on the Time Series Chart, the lines disappeared if the Logarithmic scale was enabled.
