There are two main alarm types with the iMonitor Monitoring Solution - Instant and Delayed

Alarm Profiles

Immediate Alarm

Immediate (Instant) - Above or Below a threshold.

This is generally set at the absolute extreme of acceptable temperature and is used as a "last resort" alarm.

Delayed Alarm

Delayed - Above or Below a threshold for a certain amount of time. 

  • Designed to account for service time fluctuations and defrost cycles 

  • Reduce the amount of false alarms – We are targeting zero false alarms

  • “Your (clients) time is valuable, you need to trust that the system will not give you false alarms, so you can get on with you day”.
