First, select your Room Alert Monitor from the Select A Device drop-down list.
Once you’ve chosen your Room Alert, you’ll then see a drop-down list with all of the unit’s individual sensors. Select the specific sensor you wish to alert on.
Once you’ve selected a sensor, you’ll see a drop-down list of the channels associated with that sensor. Select the channel you wish to alert on.
Next, set the threshold for your sensor. The fields that appear depend on the sensor and channel you’ve chosen. In our example, we have a comparison and value field.
