The Data Inspector is an easy tool that allows you to visualise the data you collect from your assets in real-time and to identify or confirm any abnormalities in a set of comprehensive graphs.

To visualise your telematics data in graphs, log in to your Railnova account, go to Railgenius and click on "Data Inspector". You should see a page similar to this:

To view graphs, you’ll first need to select an asset: use the search and dropdown menu at the top left of the page to do so.

In the time selector, you can easily set a custom date range to view the data you'd like to analyse.

You can show a set of symbols linked to the asset. This list can be edited company-wide by admins in the data configurator by checking the "Show in data inspector" box.

If no symbols are shown, it is because your asset has no fields in the data configuration yet. As an administrator, you can follow the steps described in this article to create a data configuration.
​

If your company is "free plan", you don't have administrator access, and you can't set up or manage live data configurations, but you can still select symbols and create presets as explained below.

To load the graphs and visualise the data, you will need to choose symbols, fault codes and/or Rule Engine alerts from the search menus.

To work faster and more efficiently, you can create presets from frequently used symbols. Presets are predefined sets of symbols that allow you to visualise a set of graphs for a vehicle in a single click.

Choose the symbols that you need by ticking the box next to them, then go to Presets and click on "Save a new preset".

Give it a name and click on the "Create preset" button. The saved preset will be available for future use and will be shared within your company.

If you saved a preset and would like to rename it or delete it, you can do so as a company administrator directly in the admin menu.

Note that this is not available for "free plan" companies. In that case, presets can't be renamed or deleted, so simply create a new preset as needed.

If you are an administrator, go to the administration panel on the Railnova platform, then navigate to "Presets" in the Railgenius section.

Click on "Data inspector presets" to view all presets of your company for the Data inspector page.

By clicking on the blue link (the name of the preset), you can

If you do not have admin rights, please contact a Railnova administrator within your company. Your admin will rename or delete the preset for your company.

Depending on how extensive your remote condition monitoring is, you will be able to display a wide spectrum of data on the graphs.

Ticking the box next to the symbols, fault codes and/or Rule Engine alerts allows you to explore the available data and select the values to display. The new graphs will be displayed below the already visible graphs. You can remove fields by unticking the box next to the field's name.

Once the data has loaded and the graphs are visible, you can also easily zoom in on a time frame on the graph itself. To do so, put your cursor at the starting point of the range you want to zoom in on. Keep the left mouse button clicked, then drag the cursor to the desired endpoint and let go. Afterwards, the graph will only show the data from the selected time frame.

You can always zoom out by using the "Reset zoom" button.

You can also group symbols by clicking on "Group symbols", ticking the box of the desired symbols, and then clicking on "Group the following symbols".

To ungroup, click on the "X" behind the grouped symbols, and the view will return to the state before the grouping was created.
