# Utilisation Monitoring

## Heatmap <a href="#heatmap" id="heatmap"></a>

Heatmap provides a clear illustration of each stations utilisation across the day or week. Broken down in to windows to show exactly whats happening on the shop floor and where it can be improved.

For stations that are using Downtime Detection Mode > Utilisation Monitoring.

Heatmap windows are 15 mins for Normal Resolution and 5 mins for High Resolution.

These colours represent the Utilisation status of each station in the Heatmap.

* Green - Station has Utilisation greater than 0%
* Red - Station has Utilisation of 0%
* Light Green, Amber and Yellow shades - when set to ‘Normal Resolution - Colour Range’ depending on average Utilisation %
* Purple - Station is not receiving any signal (maybe switched off)
* Blue - Station has a Maintenance Schedule
* Light Grey - Outside of Shift
* Darker Grey - Future Time, when current day or week is selected

A station’s status will only be displayed during shift times.
