Viewing device information
After logging in to your Cloud account, when you select
View Devices»On The Cloud
in the main software
screen, the
My Devices
page opens in a browser and displays all WiFi-500 Sensor Series devices on the Cloud.
To manage the data received from your device efficiently, the Cloud divides data into sessions. A device begins
a session when it begins logging. If changes are made to the device configuration – such as sample rate or alarm
level change, the Cloud closes and archives the current session, and creates a new session for the device.
The number of devices you can connect to the Cloud depends on the type of Cloud account you have (Free,
Personal, or Professional). Click on the
Upgrade
link for more information on account types and features.
