Temperature & Humidity Sensors

Get an SMS before a temperature problem becomes a disaster

A server room or cold storage unit can overheat long before anyone notices. Temperature & Humidity sensors let SMSEagle watch the readings on a schedule and send an SMS as soon as a threshold is crossed.

Temperature & Humidity Sensors: Get an SMS before a temperature problem becomes a disaster

Built-in, accurate sensor

Every NXS-line device includes an internal temperature and humidity sensor, accurate to ±0.5°C and ±2% RH, no extra hardware needed to get started.

Add external probes where it matters

NXS-97xx Rev.3 and higher support external 1-Wire sensors, purchased through the online store or a Sales Partner, with multiple probes supported in parallel.

Readings in the web interface, by SMS or via SNMP

Check readings in the web interface, trigger SMS alerts to one or many recipients, or pull current values via SNMP for your existing monitoring tools.

Temperature & Humidity Sensors: Scan for sensors automatically

Start by finding what is connected

Scan for sensors automatically

After attaching an external probe, click Scan for new sensors in Monitoring > Temp & Humidity > Sensor settings, and SMSEagle detects it automatically.

Temperature & Humidity Sensors: Name each sensor for its location

See straight away where the problem is

Name each sensor for its location

Rename a generic sensor ID to something like ‘Server Room A’, so every alert is instantly clear.

Temperature & Humidity Sensors: Set the reading interval and units

Reading frequency and units

Set the reading interval and units

Configure how sensors are read, whether from the built-in sensor or an external 1-Wire probe.

Temperature & Humidity Sensors: Create an alarm rule with your own thresholds

Define exactly when to alert

Create an alarm rule with your own thresholds

Set a temperature or humidity threshold (higher than or lower than) that should trigger an SMS, and write the message that gets sent.

Review the full history

Check readings and generate reports

Look back at temperature and humidity trends over time, not just the moment an alert fired.

Temperature & Humidity Sensors: FAQ

Every NXS-line device includes a built-in sensor; NXS-97xx Rev.3 and higher also support external 1-Wire probes. Readings can trigger an SMS alert to one or many recipients when a threshold is crossed.

No, not for basic monitoring. Every NXS-line device has a built-in internal sensor. External probes are optional, for NXS-97xx Rev.3 and higher, available through the online store or a Sales Partner.

±0.5°C for temperature and ±2% RH for humidity.

Yes. Multiple external sensors are supported and can be attached in parallel.

Yes. Current temperature and humidity values can also be read via SNMP, using the SMSEagle SNMP agent.

Internal sensors are built into all NXS-line devices; external 1-Wire probes require NXS-97xx Rev.3 or higher.
