Sensorsoft Alert is a standalone network appliance that allows you to protect equipment and products that might be damaged by undesired environmental conditions. Sensorsoft Alert can use the complete series of Sensorsoft devices to monitor temperature, humidity, flooding, power loss and dry contacts. Using built-in Sensorsoft Plug-in technology, Alert can support almost any serial device in the world*. This allows you to monitor a wide range of variables from electrical measurements, to more complex chemical, biological and nuclear threats. Sensorsoft Alert can be managed from a web browser or SNMP management software. It operates as a standalone appliance that collects and displays sensor readings, logs data, and most importantly - alerts your staff when environmental conditions become unacceptable.
