1. Import dashboard

The Dashboard shown below displays all devices by default. set_alarm.json

Each device's threshold are managed separately. Clicking on a device in the device list on the left will display the current device status and preset thresholds/email addresses on the right.

2. Configure profile rules

2.1 Create a condition to trigger an alarm when a threshold is reached.

Click the edit icon to enter edit mode and create a new alarm rule.

2.2 Set a clear condition to clear the alarm when the data returns to normal.

The steps are similar to Create alarm, only the values are set in reverse.

Save after set

3. Configure the threshold input box

3.1 Select the Realtime data key to display

Return to the dashboard and click on the device you want to edit.

4. Configure Notification (only required for initial use)

If this is the first time configuring the email sending function, you also need to configure the Notification to specify the recipient/template/sending rules.

4.1 Configure Recipients

4.2 Configuring Templates

Set Compose

Web

Subjtct:${alarmOriginatorName} ${alarmType}

Message:${alarmOriginatorName} alarmed ${alarmType}

Email

Subjtct:${alarmOriginatorName} ${alarmType}

Message:Hi ${recipientFirstName:capitalize} ${recipientLastName:lowerCase}

5. What if I want to send an email to a specific recipient?

Currently, it supports three recipient types: Platform users, Slack, and Microsoft Teams. You can create a user using the email address you want to receive emails from, and then select the recipient in Platform users -> UserList.

6. How to set up a separate page for each device for easier management?

Suppose we have a batch of AQI sensors and a batch of Tank sensors. How do we display them on two different pages or put them into an existing dashboard?

Here, we will create a blank dashboard for demonstration purposes, and create two States (Pages) to distinguish and display two different types of devices.
