Portal is required 

All IoT Monitoring Devices have to be connected to any SensDesk Technology-based portal (SaaS) in order to work properly.

The SensDesk Technology is a portal solution from the HW group to manage remote sensors and devices (only for HW group products). Portals offer a central overview of all the values and provide a variable combination of features like sending the alarms, reporting, history records, outputs into the Open API, etc.
 

There are several portals available. The manufacturer provides HWg-cloud.com and SensDesk.com, 3^rd party companies provide more than 10 other portals. Users can migrate the device between any available SensDesk Technology portals.

All your sensors are in your pocket 24/7

You can have a display with all your sensor values in your pocket with you 24/7. Check HWg Monitor mobile app. The app can be running on your phone, on the Android TV, or on the Tablet installed on the wall.

 

Alerting

SensDesk.com can immediately alert you by SMS or Voice call to your mobile phone in the case of an Alarm situation. If the time is critical, every second counts. The immediate reaction to an alarming situation can be also responded to by closing/opening a remote relay output, which can for example turn on a siren. Quick alerts lower the risk of costly damages in case of an Alarm. Alerts from the portal can escalate to higher intensity or to another person if the problem persists.

Sensor values in Multigraphs

Multigraphs can display multiple sensor values from different kinds of sensors in one graph. That offers a situation overview of a remote site, significant fluctuance of sensor values is visible at first sight. It is popular for comparing time events. SensDesk.com system is also showing sensor value graphs that alert you when the device is not working or any sensor is out of defined limits. 

For an example of working with charts in SensDesk, see the application note.

PDF reports

You can easily create comprehensible reports with graphical representations of sensor values in one or in a number of locations. You can create reports in PDF (CSV) periodically. Reports can be printed & clicked to the invoice for your customer. Reports for pharmaceutical / other production (HACCP) are possible.

History

Thanks to the history log you can easily compare your historical data.
 

Open API 

You can connect the data from SensDesk.com to any other system. Portal user account (all connected sensors) is accessible by Open API (SNMP, XML).

• A list of all the sensors / current values can be downloaded in XML format (HTTP get). 
• All the values can be read via SNMP v1 / v3 protocol.

The number of Dashboards, Multigraphs and Reports is limited by the subscription plan as well as the length of the history log, check the plans: www.sensdesk.com
