Frequently Asked Questions

Q
What are the most popular remote sensors?
A
Remote Temperature for monitoring "hot" spots and other trouble areas. Water Sensor to check for water leaks. Door Contact Sensor to see if a door is open. Remote temperature / air flow / humidity for ensuring the proper environment. Climate monitoring in remote locations.
Q
What is the difference between analog and digital sensors?
A
Analog sensors connect through the analog inputs. These sensors are either a dry contact or provide a 0 to 5VDC signal. On the Web interface, they show up as "IO" sensors and have a value 0 to 99. Digital sensors connect to digital input ports and communicate through a serial protocol. These are also referred to as Plug-n-Play, Remote, or External sensors. Digital sensors are auto-detected by the climate monitor. Measurements from these devices are graphed and report in the appropriate units.
