CLEVELAND - Oct. 10, 2024 - PRLog -- How to Set Alarms in Radionode 365

This Radionode Tips topic covers how the alarm function can be set in RADIONODE365 as well as how to configure those alarms.

Where Can I Set Up The Alarm?

Radionode365 offers various features to support your data monitoring. The alarm function is one of them and is also a core feature of Radionode365. Therefore, utilizing the alarm function effectively can be considered effective using Radionode365.

If you click the [Add Alarms] button, you can configure the detailed settings of the alarm. Additionally, existing alarms can be modified using the [Modify] button.

Now, let's go ahead and click the [Add Alarms] button.

When you click the [Add Alarms] button, the Data Channel selection window will appear first. Select the channel you want to apply the alarm to, enter the name of the alarm, and then you can proceed to the next step.

The next page is the [Condition] settings. Here, you can make four different settings for the alarm.

If you hover your mouse cursor over the blue Help box, explanations for each setting option will appear. Here are more detailed explanations:

Normal Range (Min~Max): specifies the normal data range where an alarm won't be triggered. If the monitored data value goes beyond this range, an alarm will be triggered.

The "Don't Notify Initially" feature prevents alarms from triggering for a set time after a data value deviates from the Normal Range, reducing unnecessary alerts during routine activities like opening a refrigerator.

Don't Notify again for (Snooze): Prevents consecutive duplicate alarms from being triggered for a specific period after an alarm has occurred. This helps to avoid continuous alarms while the person in charge is addressing the issue after the initial alarm trigger.

Don't Notify Between: Allows you to set a period during which alarms will not be triggered. This can be useful in environments where temperature deviations occur regularly at specific times, such as during scheduled warehouse restocking, to prevent unnecessary repeated alarms.

The Notification tab allows for selecting alarm methods like SMS, phone calls, or email, and customizing alerts with Text-to-Speech in six languages for clear communication of deviations
