# Telemetry

> Read live robot state from the Event log, Joints, and Subsystem Health panels.

Once the robot is running, telemetry flows into three panels across the settings page and cockpit.

## Event log

Timestamped stream of everything the robot reports: connection state, firmware messages, alert-rule fires, and errors. Each entry shows a timestamp, message, and source; severity is color-coded (info, warn, error).

Use it as the first stop when something looks off — a dropped session, an unresponsive joint, or an alert you didn't expect will all leave a line here.

## Joints

Per-joint table with three columns:

| Column | Unit | Notes |
| - | - | - |
| Position | rad | Current joint angle |
| Current | A | Actuator current draw |
| Temperature | °C | Turns red above 70°C |

Click the bell icon on any row to create an alert rule for that joint. When a reading crosses your threshold, the rule fires a browser notification and writes a line to the event log.

## Subsystem Health

One status dot per on-robot subsystem:

| Subsystem | Covers |
| - | - |
| FW Link | Firmware link to the actuator controllers |
| Speaker | On-board speaker |
| Camera | On-board camera |
| Mic | On-board microphone |
| BLE Radio | Bluetooth-LE radio |
| Cloud | Cloud connectivity |

The **Alerts badge** next to the robot name summarizes this panel — `NO ALERTS` when everything is green, `NN ALERTS` with an unread dot when a subsystem is reporting an error. Click the badge for a popover listing each failure.

> [!NOTE]

> Subsystem Health only reports real values for physical Asimov robots. Platform UI support for physical robots is coming soon — until then, the panel renders as a layout preview.
