Asset Health

Monitor IoT sensor alerts across your equipment, triage critical readings, and keep an audit trail of who acknowledged what.

What is Asset Health?

Asset Health is the IoT alert feed for your equipment — every reading that crosses a configured threshold (temperature, vibration, pressure, and similar sensor metrics) appears here as an alert with a severity level. Alerts can also be logged manually for equipment without a connected sensor.

Live Alert Feed

Every IoT alert for every asset in one table, newest first, with severity, reading value, threshold, and timestamp.

Severity Tiers

Critical, Warning, and Info levels, each with its own badge color so the most urgent alerts stand out immediately.

Acknowledgement Trail

Every acknowledged alert records who acknowledged it, so nothing gets silently dismissed without accountability.

CSV Export

Export the currently filtered alert list for offline analysis or sharing with a maintenance vendor.

Alert Fields

Field Required Description
Asset Tag / NameYesThe equipment the alert was raised for
Alert TypeYesFree-text description of the reading, e.g. "High Temperature", "Vibration Spike"
SeverityYesCritical / Warning / Info
Value / UnitNoThe reading itself, e.g. 92°C, 4.2mm/s
ThresholdNoThe configured limit the reading exceeded, shown next to the value for comparison
TimestampYesWhen the alert was recorded
AcknowledgedYesWhether the alert has been reviewed, and by whom

Severity Tabs & Stats

The tab bar above the table filters by severity (All / Critical / Warning / Info / Acknowledged), each showing a live count. Three stat tiles above the filters summarize the current state at a glance:

StatMeaning
Total AlertsAll alerts currently in the system
CriticalAlerts at the highest severity, regardless of acknowledgement
UnacknowledgedAlerts still awaiting review by any technician

Logging a manual alert

Use "Add Alert" to log a reading from equipment that isn't wired to a sensor yet — enter the asset tag, alert type, severity, value/unit, and threshold, and it appears in the feed exactly like an automated IoT alert.

Bulk Selection & Actions

Each row in the Asset Health table has a selection checkbox, and the table header includes a "select all" checkbox for the currently visible/filtered list. Once one or more alerts are selected, a bulk action bar appears above the table:

Bulk Acknowledge

Acknowledge every selected, still-pending alert at once — already-acknowledged alerts in the selection are skipped.

Clear Selection

Deselect all alerts and dismiss the bulk action bar.

Checkbox style follows your Settings

The shape of the selection checkbox (circle or square) and whether a checkmark icon is shown inside a selected checkbox are controlled from Settings → Appearance → List View, and apply consistently across every multi-select table in TotalApp, including this screen.

AI Assistant

An AI Assistant panel can be opened from the tab on the right edge of the screen. It reads the alert list — or, if you've selected specific rows, just that selection — as context and answers questions in a chat interface.

Critical Triage

Identifies unacknowledged critical alerts that need immediate attention.

Anomaly Patterns

Flags assets generating repeated or escalating alerts over time.

Threshold Review

Highlights readings far beyond their configured threshold, suggesting urgency.

Acknowledgement Backlog

Summarizes how many alerts are pending vs. acknowledged, and by whom.

Selection becomes the AI's context

Select a subset of rows before opening the assistant to scope its analysis — for example, select only alerts for one asset and ask it to summarize just that group.

Save as Report

Any assistant reply can be saved as a report with one click — it's added to My Reports with a title derived from your question and the current month/year, so recurring triage summaries stay easy to find later.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can an acknowledged alert be un-acknowledged?
Not directly from this screen — acknowledgement is treated as a permanent audit record of who reviewed the alert. If the alert needs further action, open a work order referencing it instead.
Where do the sensor readings come from?
Alerts are pushed in from whatever IoT/sensor integration is configured for your tenant. Equipment without a connected sensor can still be tracked here using the "Add Alert" manual entry form.
Can I acknowledge alerts for multiple assets at once?
Yes. Select any combination of rows across assets — regardless of severity or filter — and use "Bulk Acknowledge" in the toolbar that appears above the table.
Which Writer Engine does the AI Assistant use?
The assistant follows your Settings → Agentic Writer Engine choice. Ollama, Local LLM, and In-Browser (Web LLM) models run entirely on your own machine/browser; API and Local CLI route through the server using your configured Anthropic key or the Claude CLI.
