Configuration Settings
Excursions
An excursion is defined as any time spent outside of “expected ranges” when monitoring your
products. Excursion thresholds are defined by your specific needs and set by creating upper and
lower limits of temperature.
Options for excursions
Within our excursion settings, you have two options for tracking the excursions recorded by our
Treks:
● Cumulative excursions will sum all of the time your Trek Tab records values outside the
predetermined range, even if those values temporarily enter back into normal range
during the Trek Tab’s journey. Optionally, the Trek Tab can be reset once the alarm has
been breached or the device has been turned off.
● Continuous excursions occur only when the readings from your Trek are outside the
predetermined range, continuously, for a specified amount of time. The timer becomes
reset upon detecting that readings have returned to “normal” or “expected” ranges.
Alerts
The Trek Tab can be configured to display and record varying alert “levels” given certain values
and threshold conditions.
There are three (optional) severity levels that can be customized to your preferred workflow and
procedure requirements:
● Info: normal, or expected recordings for data points logged by the Trek Tab.
● Warning: “concerning” recordings for data points logged by the Trek Tab.
● Alarm: “high-level of concern” recordings for data points logged by the Trek Tab.
Note:
Only alarm and normal conditions are indicated by the LEDs of the TrekTab. Warning
conditions are accessible by means of mobile and web interfaces.
Customizations
Within each alert type, the behavior requested when each severity threshold is met can be
customized to your desire. Settings that are customizable for displaying alarms on the Trek Tab
include:
● Alarm threshold settings
● Logging start delay
Please note that no action is required from the user to ensure uninterrupted use of the device
during electromagnetic disturbance.
