Modifying default alert metrics is an easy process with a little guidance. Always bear in mind, our default values are derived from FDA recommendations and our experience in this field.

First, let's get you to where alerts are managed:

• Log into https://app.whisker.io.
• Drill down into your location (either from the map or table view.
• Click on the Tables view and select the device in which you want to modify its alert.
  • This view is broken down into three sections:
    • Current Alerts
    • Last Values
    • Historical Values
• In the Last Values, there are two places where you can access Alerts
  • The gear icon on the speedometer-style widget or the "internal temperature" widget.
    
    
• From the Edit Channel pop-up, click on the "View Alerts For This Channel" option.
  
  
• Dependent on your company and monitored devices/types, you may have one or more alerts configured. Most multi-alert devices are tiered in nature.
• Select the desired alert you wish to modify, then click the "Edit Selected Alert" button.
  
  
• The (3) main options most users want to modify are:
  • Trigger Alert / Minutes: The time designated which must pass in relationship to the triggered threshold temperature.
  • Message: This is the message that will be sent once the alert is triggered. Its message should reflect the metrics set for the alert. NOTE: text between percent signs %xxx% will auto-populate their respective values.
  • Trigger/Threshold: is the temperature (with Trigger Alert/Minutes) the alert must exceed before sending the alert. NOTE: temperature thresholds are currently logged in Celsius (C).
    
    
  • Save your changes once done. Changes take effect immediately.
