What Is Free Remote Monitoring Software?

There are many monitoring systems available to monitor atmospheric conditions in

particular space; monitoring systems such as freezer monitoring, NHS and drug monitoring, to server room monitoring and live stock transportation monitoring systems. However, the sensors and monitors that gather the data are only half the story.

To access the data collected by the sensor system, you need specialised software. This software is installed to a computer and gives the computer user complete visibility of the information collected by the monitoring system; this is what is referred to as remote monitoring. The computer user doesn't have to be in the same room as the sensor system but they can still access the data. This is very convenient if you have multiple monitoring systems that you need to keep track of, or if for example your monitors are in a transit, transporting live stock or food stuff around the country.

Some monitoring systems come complete with free remote monitoring software as part of the package and some don't. So it's a good idea to read what actually comes with your remote monitoring system. If you are buying individual parts and are buying a high volume of sensors and monitoring equipment, you can very often get the remote monitoring software thrown in for free.

Free remote monitoring software is just as good as paid for software. This is because the software itself is relatively simple. It simply communicates with the monitoring system and collaborates the data, to give the user easy to understand information about the conditions that the monitoring system is currently experiencing. All data should be available in real time; that is up to the present moment. The data is usually displayed in a graph or table like style, and can be saved or printed to be kept as a record. It's a good idea to see examples of software screen shots or a working example where at all possible, because some user interfaces may be easier to use than others.

In addition to collaborating the data and making it easier to digest, free remote monitoring software may also offer additional features such as early warning alerts. When there is a dramatic change in the environmental conditions of the monitored area, the remote monitoring software can send out emails or SMS text messages to alert the appropriate people that their may be an issue. These alerts can save a fortune in damage to stock.

So in a nut shell, if you are looking to install a new monitoring system to protect your goods or to provide evidence of how food has been stored, it's worth looking into the software that comes with the system, because free remote monitoring software could be available, and save you a few pounds without compromising the remote monitoring system.
