Simply install the base unit and sensors, plug in the IP address and you immediately begin collecting data. You will get real time data for temperature, video, access & surveillance, power, attendance and much more with Advanced Reporting. Quickly add maps, customize dashboards, assign groups and user-specific access for controlling your environment.
Note: we used to integrate the temperature sensor, but found the heat generated from the base unit affected the readings by 2-4 degrees Fahrenheit. Having the external option only allows for more consistency and accuracy.
