Monitor Live Sensor Data Health

In Admin Sensor Configuration, you can view the Sensor Health column to monitor sensor health and you can open a sensor's chart to see its health trend. This allows you to check if a sensor is receiving data as expected.

To view sensor health status:

  1. In Admin Sensor Configuration, make sure the Sensor Health column is enabled in the table.
  2. If it is not, click on Columns and enable it.
  3. You can also enable the Last Reading Date/Time column to see when the last reading was received

To view sensor health trends:

Use the three dots menu () Chart to view the sensor's uptime for the last 1 hour, 8 hours, 24 hours, and 7 days. You can also view a historical chart with the sensor's data points.

Sensor health calculations

Uptime calculations are based on the interval set for each sensor and the data points received in the period (last 1 hour, 8 hours, etc.).

The sensor health status specifically is based on the uptime for the last 24 hours.

Sensor health status is defined as follows:

The uptime % for the last 24 hours is calculated as:

(Count # of received data points in last 24 hours) / ((86400 seconds in 24 hours) / (Sensor interval)) * 100

For example, for a sensor with a sampling interval of 900 seconds and 82 received data points in the last 24 hours:

82 / (86400 / 900) * 100 = 85%
