On/Off Sensor

The Urban.io On/Off Sensor can be used to detect electrical contact between two wired points, an external mechanical switch, relay, contact plate or low voltage control interface.

Used in conjunction with an Urban.io Gateway the On/Off Sensor will read and transmit the open or closed state of the electrical interface to the Urban.io IoT Cloud Platform on a near real-time basis.

Measured data is securely displayed within the Urban.io Cloud Platform for reporting purposes. Through the use of dynamic profiles, thresholds can be set for each sensor which can trigger alarms that can be sent via email or SMS.

All recorded sensor data, historical summaries and alarms are made available for use within external software platforms via the IoT Data API.

The Urban.io On/Off sensor samples every 30 seconds for electrical contact between the two end points. If there is no change it will report the state as a normal upon the default 10 minute interval.

If a change is detected it will send a priority message through to the cloud platform to indicate the electrical interface has changed state.
