Overview
The Watchdog 100 provides remote environmental monitoring and alarming capability
needed to detect climate conditions in critical environments. The Watchdog 100 has a
built-in sensor to monitor temperature, humidity and dew point, as well as two ports
for adding remote sensors. The Watchdog 100 also has four I/O ports for connecting
additional external 5Vdc sensors such as Flood and Door Sensors. Additionally, the
Watchdog 100 provides one output relay that can be operated remotely or set to
automatically open or close based on alarm conditions. The Watchdog 100 supports
Power-Over-Ethernet (PoE).
All internal and external sensors are measured every 5 seconds. Sensor data
collected by Watchdog 100 units provides useful trend analysis data. While all values
are not absolute in relation to a known unit, trend analysis of the data allows users to
view changes and draw useful conclusions about what is happening over time in the
monitored environment.
