A. The sensor overview section will be above every page. This will consistently display the present reading, signal strength, battery level, and status.
B. The Recent Readings section below the chart shows your most recent data received by the sensor.
C. This graph charts how the sensor fluctuates throughout a set date range. To change the date range displayed in the graph, navigate up to the top of the Readings Chart section on the right-hand corner to change the from and/or to date.
Figure 12
PAGE 8
Readings View
Selecting the ?Readings? tab within the tab bar allows you to view the sensor?s data history as time stamped data.
Figure 13
On the far right of the sensor history data is a cloud icon. Selecting this icon will export an excel file for your sensor into your download folder.
Note: Make sure you have the date range for the data you need input in the ?From? and
?To? text boxes. This will be the most recent week by default. Only the first 2,500 entries in the selected date range will be exported.
The data file will have the following fields:
Message ID: Unique identifier of the message in our database.
Sensor ID: If multiple sensors are exported you can distinguish which reading was from which using this number even if the names for some reason are the same.
Sensor Name: The name you have given the sensor.
Date: The date the message was transmitted from the sensor.
Value: Data presented with transformations applied but without additional labels.
Formatted Value: Data transformed and presented as it is shown in the monitoring portal.
Battery: Estimated life remaining of the battery.
Raw Data: Raw data as it is stored from the sensor.
Sensor State: Binary field represented as an integer containing information about the state or the sensor when the message was transmitted. (See ?Sensor State Explained? below).
Gateway ID: The Identifier of the gateway that relayed the data from the sensor.
Alert Sent: Boolean indicating if this reading triggered a notification to be sent from the system.
Signal Strength: Strength of communication signal between the sensor and the gateway, shown as percentage value.
Voltage: Actual voltage measured at the sensor battery used to calculate battery percentage, similar to Received Signal you can use one or the other or both if they help you.
PAGE 9
State
The integer presented here is generated from a single byte of stored data. A byte consists of 8 bits of data that we read as Boolean (True (1)/False (0)) fields.
Using a temperature sensor as an example.
If the sensor is using factory calibrations the Calibrate Active field is set True (1) so the bit values are 00010000 and it is represented as 16.
If the sensor is outside the Min or Max threshold, the Aware State is set True (1) so the bit values are 00000010 and it is represented as 2.
If the customer has calibrated the sensor this field the Calibrate Active field is set False (0)
AND the sensor is operating inside the Min and Max Thresholds, the bits look like
00000000 this is represented as 0.
If the sensor is using factory calibrations and it is outside the threshold the bit values are
00010010 and it is represented as 18 (16 + 2 because both the bit in the 16 value is set and the bit in the 2 value is set).
Note: These two are the only bits that typically observed outside of our testing procedures.
PAGE 10
Settings View
To edit the operational settings for a sensor, choose the ?Sensor? option in the main navigation menu then select the ?Settings? tab to access the configuration page. The example below is for a Temperature Sensor.
A. Sensor Name is a unique name you give the sensor to easily identify it in a list and in any notifications.

I
G. The Aware State Buffer is a buffer to prevent the sensor from bouncing between
Standard Operation and Aware State when the assessments are very close to a threshold. For example, if a Maximum
Threshold is set to 90° and the buffer is 1°, then once the sensor takes an assessment of
90.1° it will remain in an Aware State until dropping to 89.0°.
H. In small sensor networks the sensors can be set to synchronize their communications.
The default setting off allows the sensors to randomize their communications therefore maximizing communication robustness. Setting this will synchronize the communication of the sensors.
I. Failed transmissions before link mode is the number of transmissions the sensor sends without response from a gateway before it goes to battery saving link mode. In link mode, the sensor will scan for a new gateway and if not found will enter battery saving sleep mode for up to 60 minutes before trying to scan again. A lower number will allow sensors to find new gateways with fewer missed readings. Higher numbers will enable the sensor to remain with its current gateway in a noisy RF environment better. (Zero will cause the sensor to never join another gateway, to find a new gateway the battery will have to be cycled out of the sensor.)
PAGE 11
The default heartbeat interval is 120 minutes or two hours. It is recommended that you do not lower your heartbeat level too much because it will drain the battery.
Finish by selecting the Save button.
Note: Be sure to select the ?Save? button anytime you make a change to any of the sensor parameters. All changes made to the sensor settings will be downloaded to the sensor on the next sensor heartbeat (check-in). Once a change has been made and saved, you will not be able to edit that sensor ?s configuration again until it has downloaded the new setting.
Calibrate View
If a sensor type has readings that need to be reset, the ?Calibrate? tab will be available for selection in the sensor tab bar.
Figure 15
To calibrate a sensor, you will want to ensure that the environment of the sensor and other calibration device is stable. Note the ?Expected Next Check-in? time for the sensor you are calibrating and take a reading from your calibration device a few minutes prior to the sensors next check-in.
Enter the actual (accurate) reading from the calibration device into the text field. If you need to change the unit of measurement you can do that here.
Press Calibrate.
To ensure that the calibration command is received prior to the sensors next check-in, press the control button on the back of the gateway, once, to force communication (Cellular and Ethernet gateways).
After pressing the Calibrate button and choosing the gateway button, the server will send the command to calibrate the specified sensor to the gateway. When the sensor checks-in, it will send the pre-calibration reading to the gateway, then receive the calibration command and update it?s configuration. When the process is completed, it will send a ?Calibration
Successful? message. The server will display the sensor?s last pre-calibrated reading for this check-in, then all future readings from the sensor will be based on the new calibration setting.
It is important to note that after calibrating the sensor, the sensor reading returned to the server is based on pre-calibration settings. The new calibration settings will take effect on the next sensor heartbeat.
Note: If you would like to send the changes to the sensor right away, please remove the battery(s) for a full 60 seconds, then re-insert the battery(s). This forces the communication from the sensor to the gateway and this the message to make a change from the gateway back to the sensor. (If the sensors are industrial sensors, turn the sensor off for a full minute, rather than removing the battery).
Creating a Calibration Certificate
Creating a sensor calibration certificate will mask the calibration tab from those who should not have permissions to adjust these settings. Permissions for self-certifying a calibration must be enabled in user permissions.
Directly below the calibrate button is the selection to Create Calibration Certificate.

Figure 16
When the new certificate is accepted, the Calibration tab will change to a Certificate tab.
Figure 17
You will still be able to edit the certificate by choosing the Certificate Tab and navigating down to Edit Calibration Certificate.
The tab will revert back to "Calibrate" after the period for the certificate ends.
Scale View
If the sensor settings are influenced by temperature, the scale option will be available in the tab bar. To change the temperature unit of measurement from
Fahrenheit to Celsius or vice versa, select the Scale tab.
Choose the text box to trigger a pop-up window allowing you to change the scale. Select the scale you prefer and push ?Set.?
Press the Save button to complete your adjustment.

V. GATEWAY OVERVIEW
HOW GATEWAYS WORK
A gateway is the device that manages communication between your sensors and servers.
On startup, the gateway will periodically transmit a heartbeat, checking in with the servers to make sure it is still receiving an active signal. Sensors also have heartbeats and will relay information to the gateway, which then forwards the data to the server. There are four different types of gateways:
Cellular, International Cellular, Ethernet, USB, and Serial Modbus Gateway. All gateways require an active iMonnit® account in order to be operational. Gateway settings can be accessed on iMonnit or in the offline local interface.
Cellular Gateways: Uses cell towers to facilitate communication between gateways and the monitoring system.
Ethernet Gateways: Requires an Ethernet cable to establish a connection between your gateway and Monnit Servers using an IEEE 802.3 network.
USB Gateways: Uses an existing internet connection on a PC to facilitate communication with the Monnit servers.
Serial Modbus Gateway: Acts as a data concentric for Monnit wireless sensor networks.
Cellular, International Cellular, Ethernet, USB, and Serial Modbus Gateway. All gateways require an active iMonnit® account in order to be operational. Gateway settings can be accessed on iMonnit or in the offline local interface.
In order for your wireless sensors to work optimally, you should orient all antennas for your sensor(s) and gateway(s) the same direction (typically vertical).

Figure 21
A. History ? This will be the first page to display. With a list of data received from previous heartbeats. If there have been any alert states in the past, they will show up here.
B. Events ? This will display a list of all the events you have under this gateway. If you have not assigned any events to this gateway, the page will be blank. For tips on how to set an event, see Getting Started ? Events for more information.
C. Settings ? If you would like to make changes to your gateway network connection, you can do so here under the Settings section.
D. Sensor List ? Here you will see a list of sensors registered to the gateway. If there aren?t sensors registered to the gateway, the list will be blank.
Gateway History View
The first tab to display when entering your gateway will be the History tab, allowing you to view gateway messages as time stamped data.
Figure 22
On the far right of the gateway history data is a cloud icon. Selecting this icon will export an excel file for your sensor into your download folder.
Note: Make sure you have the date range for the data you need input in the ?From? and
?To? text boxes. This will be the most recent week by default. Only the first 2,500 entries in the selected date range will be exported.
PAGE 15
Gateway Action View
All actions assigned to the gateway can be found by selecting the Actions tab. If there are no active actions, none will be listed for the gateway. From here you have the option of selecting an action to edit, pausing notifications, or delaying alerts for one hour. For more on creating and editing action notifications, see the Action section of this guide.
Figure 22
Gateway Settings View
A
Select the Settings tab to enter gateway settings. Depending on the gateway model, there may be a different collection of general settings available for modification.
Ethernet Gateway General Settings
A. The Gateway Name field is where you assign your gateway a unique title. By default, the gateway name will be the type followed by the Device ID.
Figure 23
D
E
B
C
B. The Heartbeat Minutes configures the interval that the gateway checks in with the server. The default is five minutes. So, every five minutes your gateway will report to the server.
C. The Poll Rate Minute setting only applies if you are using Monnit Control or
Monnit Local Alert. Here?s how it works: to conserve cellular data, your gateway has a set heartbeat (meaning it only exchanges data with the iMonnit server once every five minutes by default). If you are using Monnit Control or Monnit Local
Alert, you may want to control equipment or receive local alerts more frequently. If you were to increase your gateway heartbeat, you would increase your data usage substantially.
Setting a poll rate allows your gateway to check for priority incoming messages more frequently ? while using a fraction of the data of a regular message exchange. Your gateway asks the iMonnit server if there are any priority incoming messages, and if there are, they are exchanged immediately. If not, no messages are exchanged until your gateway has its next regular heartbeat.
PAGE 16
G. Force Transmit on Aware means that if the sensors reach an aware state outside of the five minute heartbeat interval, the gateway will immediately relay that data to the server instead of waiting the extra time it would take to reach the next heartbeat minute.

B. The Heartbeat Minutes configures the interval that the gateway checks in with the server. The default is fifteen minutes. So, every fifteen minutes your gateway will report to the server.
C. The IMSI (International Mobile Subscriber
Identity) number as the mode to identify the country, mobile network, and subscriber. It is formatted as MCC-MNC-MSIN. MCC is the
Mobile country Code. MNC is the Mobile
Network Code attached to the cellular network. MSIN is a sequential serial number making the IMSI unique to a subscriber.
D. The ICCID is the nineteen digit unique identification number corresponding to the cellular SIM card. It is possible to change the information contained on a SIM (including the
IMSI), but the identity of the SIM itself remains the same.

E. IMEI (International Mobile Equipment
Identity) is a number exclusive to a Cellular
Gateway to identify the gateway to the cell tower.
F. Force Transmit on Aware means that if the sensors reach an aware state outside of the five minute heartbeat interval, the gateway will immediately relay that data to the server instead of waiting the extra time it would take to reach the next heartbeat minute.
G. Gateway Power Mode is a dropdown menu to select how much power your gateway uses. Choose between Standard, Force High Power, or Force Low Power.
PAGE 17
Network
Choose the Network bullet under the Settings title for an Ethernet Gateway to open up the local area network configuration page. The Local Area Network includes the ability to switch your network IP address from DHCP to Static. DHCP will be the default network
IP address.
Multiple interfaces can be active, but they each need a static IP address on the
Gateway. Internet Service Providers (ISPs) assign IP (Internet Protocol) addresses to a computer so users can access the Internet. An IP address is a unique number typically formatted as 000.000.000.0.
To change your IP address to a Static IP, navigate to the network IP option and switch it from DHCP to Static. Then input your data for the Static IP, Network Mask, Default
Gateway, and Default DNS Server.
Figure 25
Static IP - A static Internet Protocol (IP) address is a numerical sequence assigned to a computer by an Internet Service Provider (ISP). This is different from a Dynamic IP Address in that a Static IP doesn?t periodically change and remains constant.
Network Mask - More commonly known as a ?subnet mask? this number hides the network half of an IP address. The most common Network Mask number is 255.255.255.0.
Default Gateway - This is the forwarding host a computer utilizes to relay data to the
Internet.
Default DNS Server - DNS Servers take alphanumerical data (like a url address) and dial the number for the server containing the information you?re looking for.
PAGE 18
Commands
Choose the bullet for Commands located just under the Settings title to access the commands page.
Figure 26
Selecting the Reform Network command will trigger the gateway to remove all sensors from its internal white-list, and then request a new sensor list from the server. This command will force all sensors to reinitialize their connection with the gateway.
Reforming the network cleans up communication when multiple networks are in range of each other so they are all in sync. This is especially useful if you have move sensors to a new network, and would like to clear these sensors from the gateways internal list.
Reforming the network will place a new list of sensors that will continue to exchange data.
If there are updates available for your gateway firmware, the Update Gateway
Firmware button will appear, giving you the option to select it and install the latest firmware.
Choosing the Reset Gateway to Factory Defaults button will erase all your unique settings and return the gateway to factory default settings.
Interface
There are three additional interfaces available for activation on your Gateway Settings page. To activate them, choose the Interface button. Toggle on each of the interfaces to access their individual settings.
Figure 27
PAGE 19
SNMP Interface ? SNMP (Simple Network
Management Protocol) compiles information from a variety of clients. This is especially helpful if you have multiple gateways for devices that need to communicate with the gateway. Monnit gateways can manage up to four clients. For more on the SNMP
Interface visit the article SNMP Interface
Configuration. Monnit gateways can manage up to four clients. The SNMP settings for a gateway can be adjusted on iMonnit and the offline local interface.
You can continue to use SNMP without the server interface active. The data will not be sent to a server, but you can continue to poll for the data as it is received by the gateway.
SNMP Address ? This is the IP address for the SNMP Client you wish to communicate with the device. The Enterprise Gateway has sensor information @ 40101 - 40116 (100 ? 115 raw address), and every 16 after in the same pattern;
40117 ? 40132.
(116- 131 raw) is the next set of 16. Addresses of
0-15, 16-31, 32-47 refer to sensor slots 1, 2 and 3.
This is the same as the Register Address of
40001-40016, 40017-40032, and 40033-40048.
Port - The number for where the server data from the gateway is received. Ports 80 and 443 are reserved for https traffic. Web browsers use these ports to send requests to web servers.
Figure 28 Trap Active ? A ?Trap? for an SNMP is an alert state sent from your connected device to the gateway which is then relayed to the server. By default, this option is off, but you can turn it on by toggling the switch over into the on position.
Trap Port ? The server port where the trap alert state is sent when active.
Modbus Interface ? Modbus TCP (Transmission
Control Protocol) is the Modbus RTU protocol with a TCP interface that runs on Ethernet. This allows blocks of binary data to be exchanged between computers. TCP is responsible for making sure all data is correctly received. IP (Internet Protocol) is responsible for making sure data is correctly addressed and routed. Monnit provides the
Modbus TCP interface for you to pull gateway and sensor data. You can continue to use Modbus without the server interface active. The data will not be sent to a server, but you can continue to poll for the data as it is received by the gateway.
Figure 29
PAGE 20
Real-time TCP - Real Time TCP (Transmission
Control Protocol) guarantees response within a specific deadline. TCP is responsible for making sure all data is correctly received by the IP address.
A static IP must be set on the gateway.
TCP Timeout Seconds ? The amount of time the gateway waits for a request to be received by the server before the session times out and the connection is refused.
Port ? The number for where the server data from the gateway is received. Ports 80 and 443 are reserved for https traffic. Web browsers use these ports to send requests to web servers.

VI. ACTIONS OVERVIEW
Notifications for a single sensor or gateway can be created, deleted, and edited by selecting the ?Actions? tab in the sensor tab bar.
Figure 32
You can toggle the Action Trigger on or off by selecting the switch under Current Action
Triggers.
CREATING AN ACTION
Actions are triggers or alarms set to let you know when a sensor reading identifies that immediate attention is needed. Types of actions include sensor readings, battery level, device inactivity, and scheduled data. Any one of these can be set to send a notification or trigger an action in the system.
Select ?Actions? in the main navigation menu.
Figure 33
A list of previously created actions will display on the screen. From here, you have the ability to filter, refresh, and add new actions to the list.

From the Actions page, tap ?Add Action? in the left hand corner.
Figure 34
Step 1: What triggers your action?
The dropdown menu will have the following options for Action Types:
Sensor Reading: Set actions based on sensor activity or reading.
Battery Level: This is where you can set to be notified when the battery level drops below a percentage. 15% is the default setting.
Device Inactivity: Actions when the device doesn?t communicate for an extended period of time.
Advanced: Actions based on advanced rules, such as comparing past data points with current ones.
Scheduled: These are actions that fire at a time set basis.
Select Sensor Reading from the dropdown menu.
A second dropdown menu will appear. From here, you will be able to see a list of the different type of sensors registered to your account. Choose Temperature in the
Figure 36 dropdown menu.
Next, you will be asked to input the trigger settings. You have the option of setting this trigger for greater than or less than a temperature reading.
Press the ?Save? button.
If you don?t have a temperature sensor, the option in this example won?t be available, select any variable output sensor and follow along.
Variable output sensors can have multiple event triggers created.
Example: A temperature sensor used in a freezer. You may want to be notified if the temperature goes below 0° or above 30°
Fahrenheit. You would create two events.
- Action 1- Trigger Set for temperatures LESS
THAN 0°F.
- Action 2 - Trigger set for temperatures
GREATER THAN 30° F.
