Adjust Auto-Report Generation Offset
Automatically generated reports from WQData LIVE often need to have their start times offset to accommodate for the upload delay (due to the latency of sensor sample acquisition and data logger telemetry connection processes) on the final data point. If no offsets are entered, reports that are delivered may be missing the most recent data […]

Name changes are entered in the Device Remote Configuration menu on WQData LIVE. To configure custom names: Navigate to the Device Remote Configuration tool within the administrator settings. […]
Choosing Which Parameters Are Transmitted
Following a sensor detection, all diagnostic and sensor parameters are enabled for logging to the on-board micro SD card and transmission to WQData LIVE via the X2’s on-board telemetry. However, disabling transmission of individual parameters is possible. Disabling transmission of un-needed parameters is sometimes desirable to minimize the amount of unnecessary data sent. This is […]

Configuring Event-Based Transmission (G2/iSIC V2 Only)
Cellular G2 and iSIC V2 systems allow configuration of increased transmission frequency when a recorded parameter exceeds a user-defined threshold. This event-based transmission enables the system to upload data infrequently and minimize power and data consumption during normal operation, yet increase the frequency of logging and transmission of data during critical events. To configure event-based […]
Adjusting the Dashboard Map
The WQData LIVE Dashboard Map feature is an aesthetic and informative addition to the Dashboard display. The map gives the user a visual of the area surrounding the data logger, allows GPS-equipped loggers to be tracked, and contains visual updates to indicate triggering of system alarms. Map Features Click anywhere on the map to […]
Managing Quick Alert Notifications
The Quick Alert feature offers a quick method of configuring email/text message* notifications to send when an individual parameter crosses a basic threshold set by the user. While an alert is active, emails will repeatedly send for each uploaded reading that exceeds the parameter threshold. This feature is useful when using the more advanced Alarm […]
Setting Alarms
