Setting and Editing Notification Settings
People to Notify
Start typing a name into the box and the system will automatically populate the
name of a user within your sensor network. If there are already multiple users on
the network, a drop down list of names will appear. Select the name of the user
for the notification. If the person to be notified does not have an account on the
network, you may quick add them by selecting the “Add Recipient” link and entering
in their contact information.
Notification Parameters
This area allows the user to set notification parameters such as naming the
notification, customizing the notification message and setting sensor conditions that
will trigger the notification.
Assigned Devices
Allows you to tell the system which sensor(s) will trigger the notification being
created. When a notifications is sent from the system, it will automatically include
the sensor name and data that caused the notification to be sent.
A notification can be assigned to multiple sensors. Application specific notifications
(ex. Temperature) can only be assigned to sensors of that application type. General
notifications such as “battery status”, can be assigned to any or all sensors.
5. Exporting Sensor Data
Clicking on the “Export” tab within the sensor data window allows you to export sensor data
to a comma separated value (.csv) file or send the sensor data to an external web source.
To export sensor data you must first select the date range for the data you want to export.
Once the date range is selected, determine whether you want sensor data from the
selected sensor only, from all sensors in the network or all sensors assigned to the account.
When you are finished, click on “Export Data” at the bottom of this window. The data will be
exported to a comma separated value (.csv) file format.
Note:
Only the first 2,500 records within the selected date range will be exported.
You can alternately send your sensors’ incoming data to a 3rd party by clicking on the
“Configure data push” button at the bottom of the window. From this area you can pass
data from your wireless sensor network devices to another service in real time. This is done
by coding the data into a url query then sending the data via http get request at the time
data is received. There is an extensive list of parameters that can be passed, as listed in
the viewed window, that allow you to send detailed information about both the data and the
sensor.
