Overview

Find signals, operate automation, and review data in the DARTWIC interface.

The interface is your workspace for a running engine. The top bar identifies the connected node and active project. The left navigation opens resource types; resources open in tabs, and the context panel shows details for the current selection.

Reading live state

The interface receives telemetry asynchronously. A graph’s update interval controls the display subscription; it does not set the device sampling rate or task frequency. A stale value is the last known value whose freshness threshold has expired. A missing value means the channel could not be found. Neither is a new zero measurement.

Engine-side command authority determines whether a control can write. After a command, inspect the command value and the separate hardware feedback signal when the driver provides one.
