ROOM ALERT MANAGER 2.0 – ADVANCED SENSOR DATA AND REPORTING

Since the launch of Room Alert Manager in 2020, our team has continued to invest
significant engineering efforts into adding features that help users further
prevent costly environmental downtime. Room Alert Manager is the most
user-friendly and highly secure tool for the management of Room Alert monitors,
sensors and accessories. Now with sensor data and reporting, we’re taking
proactive environmental monitoring to the next level.


REPORTS VS SENSOR DATA AND REPORTING

Previously in Room Alert Manager, users had access to a “Reports” tab. Under the
“Reports” tab, users could easily graph the data being collected by their Room
Alert sensors in order to see an organized overview of the conditions in their
facilities. Our reporting features have always been well-received by customers,
so we decided to enhance it with additional resources. This tab is now called
“Sensor Data and Reporting” and has the subcategories “Explore” and “Data
Groups”. On this page, you can   

 * Easily browse a list of all your sensors in one place  
 * View each sensor’s current readings & alarm status  
 * View a list of alerts associated with each sensor, and quickly configure new
   alerts  
 * Graph historic sensor data to visually track trends in your environment.  

Sensor Data and Reporting features have significantly enhanced the ability for
Room Alert Manager to provide even more comprehensive environment monitoring
capabilities.


GRAPHED DATA



When users first open “Sensor Data and Reporting”, an “Explore Data” page will
appear. In the “Graphed Data” section of this tab, you’ll be able to create
graphs, just like before, however you’ll also be able to explore extensive
information regarding all of your Room Alert sensors. 

To populate your graph, you can add sensors from the “Explore Sensor Data”
section at the bottom of the page. This is where you will find a complete list
of all of the sensors that Room Alert has recorded. By clicking the + next to
the sensor name, it will get pushed up the page and reflect on the graph above.
To filter the information in your list of sensors, you can click the Gear icon.
Here you can customize and organize the details displayed such as number of
alerts associated with that channel, device type, serial number, MAC address and
more. You can also change the Y axis on your graph, making graphing fully
customizable to meet your exact needs.  

Once you configure your graph to include as many sensors as you’d like, you can
utilize a lot of the reporting features we previously had in reporting such as
hovering over a sensor to get a quick reading, zooming in and moving in a zoomed
view, and downloading graphs as a CSV file. Now, users can also change the size
of their graph to best suit their sensor data.


EXPLORE SENSOR DATA

At the bottom of this page is a comprehensive list of all of your sensors that
Room Alert knows about, regardless of the device it is connected to. Any sensors
that are presently in a triggered alarm state will appear in red and be pushed
to the top of the list. Otherwise, the list will be organized alphabetically by
default.  

In your list of sensors, you’ll notice critical pieces of information about each
sensor. This includes the sensor’s last reading, a timestamp of when that
reading came from, the number of configured alerts associated with each sensor
and more. You can click the Gear icon on the right hand size to customize the
information you want visible.  

The best part about the new “Sensor Data and Reporting” tab is how easy it is to
find specific sensors. You can search your entire list of sensors by certain
criteria such as sensor name, device or channel type. For example, if you’re
trying to find a Digital Temperature & Humidity Sensor but you aren’t sure where
it is, you can search “Humidity” under channel type. Or say you’re trying to
find a sensor that is connected to a Room Alert 32S, you can search by the type
of device. Or maybe you aren’t sure of the type of sensor or device it is
connected to, but you do know it is named after a freezer location. You can
search by sensor name by typing keywords such as “Freezer”. These search bars
work both independently and together to help you search through even the longest
of sensor lists and easily find whatever sensor you are looking for, without
having to scroll through hundreds or even thousands of sensors manually.


CREATE ALERTS FROM GRAPHED CHANNELS & DATA GROUPS



There are two options for saving graphed data. Users can “Create an alert from
all graphed channels” or “Save as a Data Group”. If you click “Create an alert
from all graphed channels” then you will be brought to a form to create an
alert. This form will automatically be partially filled out based on all of the
data in your graph. You will just have to input the exact condition(s) you want
to alert to, such as a specific temperature. If you only want to create an alert
on one channel on your graph, then you can click the 3 dots next to that
particular sensor and it will automatically populate the alert form for that
single sensor. Our team designed this feature in direct response to feedback
from customers. With the new “Create an alert from all graphed channels” option,
customers are able to save a lot of time if they are trying to create multiple
thresholds on an alert without having to manually fill out the entire alert
form.   

If you click “Save as a Data Group” then you are redirected to a “Data Groups”
tab where you can see a quick view of all of your data groups. If any of your
data groups are associated with a sensor that is in a triggered state, the name
of the data group will be in red and pushed to the top of the list. In this
default view, users can see a quick preview of each data group in a 24 hour
view. Data groups can also be viewed in a list-view if you prefer to not see a
quick view of your graphs. For additional information, you can click on any
specific data group. There you can customize the title for that saved group.
Under “Explore Sensor Data” you can review your comprehensive list of sensors
and add any more sensors you’d like.

We are so excited to continue delivering advanced and secure features in Room
Alert Manager. With the release of Sensor Data and Reporting, users will be able
to use Room Alert Manager with more ease than ever before. From small businesses
to larger scale facilities, Sensor Data and Reporting will allow customers to
seamlessly manage their Room Alert hardware, whether they have just a few
sensors and monitors or hundreds of thousands of units.


Room Alert is Made in the USA, ships the same day, and has been protecting
facilities in over 185 countries since 1988.
