Ignition Dashboards

🖥️ Ignition Dashboards That Work

A strong Ignition implementation is less about pretty screens and more about building a workflow: see the issue, understand the cause, take action, and verify improvement.

📊 Dashboards That Work

• Shift summary: throughput, downtime, top causes, open issues
  
  
• Pareto + drill-down: top drivers → timeline → event detail
  
  
• Maintenance view: active faults, repeat failures, work-in-progress
  
  
• Network/device health pages that reduce time-to-root-cause
  
  

✅ Quick Start Checklist

• Define KPI math and publish definitions in-app
  
  
• Separate operator vs supervisor views
  
  
• Use consistent colors and status language across pages
  
  
• Validate performance early — tag load, queries, history
  
  

⚠️ Common Pitfalls

• Overly complex dashboards that require training to read
  
  
• No downtime taxonomy — everything becomes Other
  
  
• No ownership: dashboards show problems but nobody acts
