Authorizations
The Authorizations tab shows a list of users outside of your organisation that have access to the job file and can potentially assist with commissioning and maintaining the system.
Users who already have a role within the organisation automatically have access to all project files. |
Users with Owner access can add and remove users from the project and change their access level. Users can have one of the following access levels:
Owner | User | Viewer | |
---|---|---|---|
Assign and manage project users |

Viewers are not able to save job files or make a remote connection. |
Job files
The Job files tab lists the current and previous revisions of the job file. The Modified by column shows the email address of the last user to save the job.
Click the three dots under the Actions column to download a job file to your computer. In the event of an issue with your current job file (e.g. accidentally saving unwanted changes or deleting a device), this enables you to revert SB to a known working version of your job.
Licenses
The Licenses tab shows your valid and expired remote connectivity licenses. Owner and Admin users can request licenses.
To request a new license, click the License Request button. Complete the License Request form and click the Save button.
Dynalite provides a trial 28-day remote connectivity license when you first register a PDDEG-S as a cloud gateway. Contact your Signify sales representative to add or renew your license. |
Areas
The Areas tab allows you to easily check the commissioning status of your project areas and share SB general and area notes for further analysis and investigation.
You can use this tab to keep an organized record of changes to the job file and system hardware, share contact details, and leave warnings or more information for others.
Click the three dots under the Actions column to edit the area status and area notes.
Log files
The log files tab enables you to download the cloud gateway log files by selecting a specified date. Once downloaded, you can open the log file in the System Builder Network Log window.
The gateway contains three types of log file:
-
Network Log
-
Sys Log (Signify System Experts only)
-
MQTT Log (Signify System Experts only)
Log files stored on the gateway are overwritten after 28 days, but the DCP stores a backup of previous log files. Log files are uploaded approximately every 30 minutes. If the cloud gateway is offline for more than 28 days, local log files will be lost. |
End-point scan
The End-point scan tab is a diagnostic tool to check that the cloud gateway can connect to all required services. Results should show as passed, but not all end-points are mandatory.
Total failure indicates a connectivity/firewall issue or a service outage. A single failure is more likely to indicate that an individual end-point server is down.
Note the Scan time stamp at the top of the page. To perform a new scan, click the Refresh button in the top right corner.
Please create a support ticket if any scan results are not passed. |
