Monnit Corporation Launches New Sensors and Monitoring Software Enhancements

Monnit launches new sensors and software

Kaysville, Utah – Dec. 14, 2010 – Monnit Corporation (www.monnit.com) today announced the immediate availability of three new low cost wireless sensors designed for commercial, industrial and consumer applications.  The new sensors compliment Monnit's existing line of low-cost wireless sensors and include the following:

  • The wireless humidity sensor can be used to monitor relative humidity and temperature for critical applications with a low and high threshold setting.
  • The wireless dry contact sensor can be used to detect contact between two wired contact points.  This sensor can be used with an external mechanical switch or a contact plate.
  • The wireless analog sensor allows for integration of external sensors to the Monnit wireless communication protocol.  The system will output raw data from the user's analog sensor.

In addition to the launch of these three new wireless sensors, Monnit has also enhanced its Sensor Monitoring Software to include a sensor mapping tool and an advertisement generation tool.

The sensor mapping tool allows  users to upload a graphic of their facility and graphically tag a sensor graphic on top of the facility image to serve as a visual map of where sensors have been placed.  By clicking on the sensor graphics within this tool you have immediate access to the sensors'  last readings and configuration data.

The advertisement generation tool allows Monnit resellers to create and push advertisements to their customers through sensor triggered events such as a water sensor that creates an on-screen or email advertisement for a local plumber in the event of leaking pipes.

“Sensors are so affordable now and really allow a business or consumer to monitor just about anything they want to,” said Brad Walters, Founder and CEO of Monnit.  “These new sensors are important because they address critical needs but they also help businesses and consumers that have already invested in old or outdated technology to benefit from the strength of our sensors and monitoring software.”

Monnit’s wireless sensors are designed to detect and monitor every function critical to business or personal life, including; the presence of light, water, humidity, temperature, movement and distress.   Monnit’s wireless gateways transmit data between local sensor networks and the MonnitSphere online monitoring and notification system.  Monnit’s software allows for user customization and notification of events via email or text messages.

These three sensors and advanced software features are available immediately by calling (801) 561-5555 or on the Web site, www.monnit.com.
