Monitors page
We have introduced major enhancements regarding the display of monitor configuration. When double-clicking a row, it expands and reveals all the monitor details. Administrators of Data Core will notice that Monitors in Facit now display each configuration in a familiar and consistent design, akin to the configuration page in Data Core. This allows users to understand the references in monitor calculations, view underlying template details, or access trigger times and settings, all without switching to the remote Data Core configuration interface.
Additionally, this page now properly displays 'Disabled' and 'Pending first calculation' monitors.
Dashboard page
The Dashboard page contains an aggregated view of Alerts. Each row of this table is a Case. Right-click the case and select “View Monitor” to view the monitor that generated the alerts for the Case.
To enhance identification, we've added a new column that displays the type of Alerts each Case row aggregates.
Added new column that displays the Priority of the Case.
All pages
Every page in Facit now allows sorting on columns in ascending or descending order.
The default sorting for following pages is as follows:
- Dashboard: Descending on Time stamp column
- Monitors: Ascending on Name column
- Furthermore, the issue with filtering on multiple column fields has been resolved.
NB. The above updates are for the Facit application only - server-side monitors are not impacted by this release.

Facit Script Tags
Script Tags are the “under the hood” functionality that have always driven the Facit monitors. However, as the variety and sophisticaion of Script Tags has grown, it makes sense for them to be given a prominent appearance in Facit.
You will soon be able to view and configure Script Tags in the Facit UI. To make the relationship between Script Tag and Alert more obvious, the default Alarm Analysis parsing of Facit events will reflect the Script Tag name in full.
For example,
a Script Tag called $$LIC0101.State that raises event High Alert, will be parsed:
Event.Tag: LIC0101.State Event.AlarmId: High Alert
Previously, it was parsed…
Event.Tag: LIC0101 Event.AlarmId: State
Note that Alarm Analysis calculation of duration will be broken for Facit Alerts that straddle the above transition. Also KPI counts will spike for reporting periods straddling the transition since the same alert may appear twice (with a subtly different name).
