description: Telemetry dashboards for each mesh node — device health, environment sensors, signal quality, power, traceroute, and position history.

aliases:

• metrics

• telemetry

• device-metrics

• signal

The node detail screen provides comprehensive telemetry and metrics for each node on your mesh.

Basic operating information reported by each node:

Device metrics are displayed as individual cards with trend sparklines showing battery level, voltage, channel utilization, airtime, and uptime over time.

│ 💡 Tip: Tap any metric card to expand it into a full chart with historical data points. Pinch to

│ zoom the time axis.

Environmental sensor data (requires compatible hardware):

Environment metrics are charted over time for easy trend analysis — temperature, humidity, and pressure each get their own line chart with the measurement unit displayed on the Y axis.

│ 💡 Tip: Environment metrics require a sensor connected to the remote node. Not all nodes report

│ environmental data. See Telemetry & │ Sensors

│ for a full list of supported sensors.

Radio signal quality information:

Power management telemetry (requires INA sensor or compatible hardware):

Traceroute shows the path a message takes through the mesh:

1. From the node detail screen, tap Traceroute.

2. The app sends a traceroute request to the target node.

3. Results show each hop with SNR/RSSI values.

T282828

Each hop represents a relay node that forwarded the message.

Historical position data for nodes that share their location:

• GPS coordinates

• Altitude

• Speed (if moving)

• Timestamp for each position report

Shows which nodes a given node can directly hear, useful for understanding mesh topology.

1. Navigate to Nodes.

2. Tap the node you want to inspect.

3. Select the metric category from the detail tabs.

The position tab shows location data for nodes that share GPS:

│ ⚠️ Note: Metrics are only available when they have been reported by the remote node. Metrics

│ update at intervals configured on each node's telemetry settings.

• Nodes — node list, filtering, and sorting

• Telemetry & Sensors — supported sensors and configuration

• Signal Meter — how signal quality is calculated from SNR and RSSI

• Discovery — traceroute details and neighbor info

• Units & Locale — temperature, distance, and speed display formats
