My battery data is not displaying or has a low voltage. Why is this, and is it affecting my data?

My battery data is not displaying or has a low voltage. Why is this, and is it affecting my data?

Dashboards pull only data that is available in the selected time period. 

When you see no battery voltage on the voltage gauge, it is likely that your selected time range is smaller than your selected heartbeat period, and because of this, you will not see battery data points. To see battery values, widen your time range to contain at least one heartbeat (this is often every few hours).

In the top right corner of the dashboard, you can select or search for a particular time range.
