Let's take a look in our crystal ball to see what the future holds at Monnit

Monnit's development team is hard at work developing new features for iMonnit users. In response to requests from several customers, we are working on scheduled reports from the iMonnit system. Scheduled reports allow users to setup one-time reports or recurring reports to run at set times. Scheduled reports are sent via email to selected users and include a system generated CSV file containing the specified sensor(s) data, which can be analyzed and sorted in any spreadsheet program. While we are still developing this feature, we have made it available as a Beta feature and invite customers to begin using the feature and provide feedback for additional ideas they would like to see incorporated into the reports. If you would like to learn more about this feature please see the Tech Tip section of this newsletter.

Environmental Monitoring for Wood Floor Maintenance

Wood flooring in high humidity areas can absorb moisture when there are excess amounts of it in the air. Humidity fluctuations can result in floor boards swelling and either cupping or crowning, which can make the floor look disjointed and uneven. Damaged floors aren't pretty and can become tripping hazards.

With recent extremes in both temperature and humidity, we have seen a lot of businesses seeking a remote monitoring solution for maintaining their own and/or their customer's wood flooring.

Monnit provides a low-cost, reliable, wireless monitoring solution that allows you to track conditions and receive alerts for the following types of applications:

All Monnit wireless sensors come with free basic online monitoring, allowing you to view sensor information anytime from anywhere. Receive instant notifications via email or SMS text if a set sensor condition is met or exceeded.

Using The New Scheduled Reports in
the iMonnit Online Software

This tech-tip is meant to give instructions for creating and scheduling sensor or network reports in the iMonnit online sensor monitoring software. For product documentation and additional help visit www.monnit.com/support.

Monnit has recently released to Beta a new "Scheduled Reports" feature for our iMonnit online software customers. The scheduled reports function allows users to setup a one time or recurring report to run at a set time. Scheduled reports are sent via email and include a system generated CSV file containing the specified sensor(s) and network(s) data.

To create a new scheduled report, login to your iMonnit account at https://www.imonnit.com.

Clicking on "Reports" in the main navigation will bring you to the reports section of the iMonnit system.

Select "Schedule New" from the left navigation on the Reports page to create a new scheduled report.



Click on "Schedule" next to the type of scheduled report you want to create.

Sensor : 24 hour - Reports data from a specific sensor for the previous 24 hours.

Network : 24 hour - Reports data from all devices in a specific network for the previous 24 hours

Account : 24 hour - Reports data from all devices on the entire account for the previous 24 hours.



Name the report and select the schedule and time of day to run the report, then select all other options that you want to include in the report. When you are finished, click the "Save" button.

You can also choose to send the report immediately by choosing the option under "Report Schedule". Choosing the immediate report option generates a one-time report and sends it to the specified email.

After clicking the "Save" button, you will see a verification page for the report settings. At the bottom of this page you can select user's on the account to receive the report. If you are using the free iMonnit software there will be no other user's on your account. By default the logged in user creating the report is already added. To select additional user's, check the box in front of their name and click the arrow button to move the users to the recipient list.



Any time a recipient is added or deleted, the list is automatically saved and the report remains active.

With the report created you can Activate/Deactivate the notification by clicking on the report icon in the left navigation (1). You can also view the report settings and edit which users will receive the report by clicking on the report name (2), and can make changes to the report settings by clicking the edit icon (3).
