05.5 User Manual Chatbot
The SCITIS Manual Chatbot helps users find information from SCITIS manuals and technical documentation more easily.
Instead of manually searching through long PDF manuals or documentation pages, users can ask the chatbot a question in normal language. The chatbot searches the available documentation and gives an answer based on the related manual content.
The chatbot is designed to support users while working with SCITIS documentation. It is not a general chatbot and should only be used for questions related to SCITIS manuals, portal documentation, devices, configuration, safety instructions, and related technical documents.
Where to Find the Chatbot
The chatbot is available inside the SCITIS portal.
Users can open it from the chatbot icon at the bottom-right corner in the portal.
What You Can Ask and what answers can be expected
The chatbot answers based on the available SCITIS documentation. Users can ask questions related to SCITIS manuals, portal usage, technical documentation, devices, configuration, and safety information.
The chatbot can answer questions in English and German, depending on the question and the available documentation.
Example English questions:
- What is CloudPlug Edge?
- What should I do if there is a flue gas smell?
- How can I create a new user?

- How can I configure data collection?
Example German questions:
- Welche Brennstoffe können mit dem PYROT verwendet werden?
- Was soll ich tun, wenn Abgasgeruch auftritt?
- Welche Sicherheitseinrichtungen hat der PYROT Heizkessel?
The chatbot works best when the question is clear and specific.
