State

The integer presented here is generated from a single byte of stored data. A byte consists 

of 8 bits of data that we read as Boolean (True (1)/False (0)) fields.

Using a temperature sensor as an example.

If the sensor is using factory calibrations the Calibrate Active field is set True (1) so the bit 

values are 00010000 and it is represented as 16.
If the sensor is outside the Min or Max threshold, the Aware State is set True (1) so the bit 

values are 00000010 and it is represented as 2.

If the customer has calibrated the sensor this field the Calibrate Active field is set False 

(0) AND the sensor is operating inside the Min and Max Thresholds, the bits look like 

00000000 this is represented as 0.
If the sensor is using factory calibrations and it is outside the threshold the bit values are 

00010010 and it is represented as 18 (16 + 2 because both the bit in the 16 value is set 

and the bit in the 2 value is set).
 

Note:

 These two are the only bits that typically observed outside of our testing procedures.

Actions View

Notifications for a single sensor or gateway can be created, deleted, and edited by selecting 

the “Actions” tab in the sensor tab bar. 

You can toggle the Action Trigger on or off by selecting the switch under Current Action 

Triggers.
Actions are essential to the sensor because this is how alerts for the device are set for what 

to do in case of an emergency. See the 

iMonnit User Guide

 for instructions on how to create 

an action.
