1. What do I need to buy?
a. 1 or more OmniSense sensors - a sensor periodically collects the data you are interested in. Most sensors are battery powered, some are wall powered. Sensors are wireless and send data to an OmniSense gateway
b. 1 or more OmniSense gateways - A gateway receives data from the wireless OmniSense sensors and relays that data over the internet to the OmniSense cloud server. Gateways need an internet connection which can be either cellular, WiFi or wired Ethernet
i. We provide Verizon service for the USA, Telia Service for Scandinavia, and Telus service for Canada
c. A OmniSense monitoring account - this is where you manage and view your data. Your data is organized by "job site" or project.
2. How do I configure my equipment?
a. OmniSense hardware is "zero config". Or "plug and play". Or however you prefer to communicate there is no set up or configuration required.
b. Plug in the gateway to power and, if you did not purchase the cellular option, an Ethernet port on your router. If you use WiFi you will have to configure the WiFi client connection, ie the SSID and password.
3. Create your account - create your OmniSense monitoring account and follow the prompts to create your first job site.
4. View your data
a. Click on "Jobs Sites" then click on the "Sensors" button
b. Sensors typically send data every 5 minutes so you may need to wait up to 5 minutes to see the first sensor readings.
c. Click on any reading to see a graph of data for that reading. Make sure to allow popups from omnisense.com on your browser.
d. Have fun exploring:)
