# CalWin WEB Dashboard

### Introduction

CalWin dashboard is a feature to display traditional CalWin reports as non-interactive dashboards on public display in production, in the office etc. With CalWin WEB Dashboard the same dashboards can be displayed on any modern browser. That can be a smart tv, a computer screen connected to for example Raspberry PI or Chrome Box.

### Installation

CalWin WEB Dashboard is bundled as part of CalWin Server, but the APPX file has to be installed before use. You can do that from `Data/Systemproperties/Application`. Press Install/Update and select the `CalWin Dashboard.appx` file from the appx folder were the CalWin application is installed.

After installation a user has the be added. That can be any user and is not important. The recommendation is to add a specific CalWin user for this purpose. For example named CalWinDashboard.

After adding a user, take a not of the Passphrase - that will needed when setting up the URL in the browser.

### Setting up a browser/display

To use a dashboard you will need a URL with som query parameters. The syntax is:

`https://<URL to CwServer>/dashboard?id=`<mark style="color:orange;">`<DashboardId>`</mark>`&key=`<mark style="color:orange;">`<Passphrase>`</mark>`&trans=`<mark style="color:orange;">`<Transition>`</mark>

The \<passhphrase> is from the users in the application configuration as described in the Installation part.

The \<dashboardid> can be found in CalWin under Data/Reports and Dashboard.

The \<transition> is the transition effect between individual dashboards. The valid values are:

1 = Fade In - Fade Out \
2 = Slide In Left - Slide Out Left\
3 = Zoom In - Zoom Out\
4 = Grow Up -Grow Down\
5 = Bounce In Left - Bounce Out Right

If you omit query parameters, for example <https://cwserver.example.com/dashboard>, you will get a help screen.
