Room Temperature Alerts
The temperature sensor is designed to warn you if the ambient temperature in the kitchen area is
getting to dangerous levels either too high or too low. This can alert you that maybe the furnace has
quit and the pipes are at risk of freezing or that the air conditioner has failed and the house is too hot
and your loved one needs to be removed from the home immediately.
Set the range that you would like by selecting the low temperature and the high temperature. Keep
in mind that it should have a large enough spread to account for thermostats that lower the
temperature at night and other situations that affect temperature swings in the home.
The sensor is not immediate and could take up to an hour to register a change. Its not designed to
be a constant monitoring item but rather an alert when the temperature gets drastically into an
unacceptable level. It can take many hours for outside temperatures to creep into a home so the
one hour is fine.
The alert will appear on the Home Screen as a Status Icon as well as in the Calendar of Events. If
you go to your Contacts in the Alert section and check off the Temperature Alert checkbox then it
will send that Contact and alert when either extreme is reached.
History – Calendar View
This Calendar view gives you a quick way to see what's been happening with the stove in the last
12 months. This example shows the “
Last 5 Weeks
”. Icons of concern are red or orange and less
important are in blues or other similar colors. Simple “
Power On
” icons are green. There is a
number in brackets beside each event telling the number of times that event occurred that day.
Clicking on a particular day will expand the view so you can review a minute by minute detailed list
of events. Being able to monitor someone's activities with the stove can be a great way to see how
their memory is changing so you can determine if changes in care are needed.
At a glance you can see how if loved ones are even using the stove. This is a simple way to make
sure they are eating hot meals every day.
