Monitoring the Data Update
In the left hand side menu in VDV select Update Overview for a view screen with the age of all the data in VDV as well the the uptime for the last week/30 days/year, to toggle between the two click on Uptime overview and Update overview.
For the Update Overview the user can see any active data update alarms that are being monitored in red if the data update alarm is triggered and green if not.
