DEVICE OVERVIEW

The i-ALERT2 Equipment Health Monitor is a compact, battery-operated monitoring device that continuously measures the
vibration and temperature of a piece of rotating equipment. The i-ALERT2 Equipment Health Monitor uses blinking red LED
and wireless notification to alert operators when the equipment exceeds vibration and temperature limits. This allows the
operator to make changes to the process or the equipment before catastrophic failure occurs. The Equipment Health
Monitor is also equipped with a single green LED to indicate when it is operational and has sufficient battery life.
The i-ALERT2 Equipment Health Monitor also contains a Bluetooth radio that communicates to certain Bluetooth 4.0
equipped devices through a mobile application. Data is shared between the i-ALERT2 Equipment Health Monitor, the
mobile application, phone, and the data servers.
The i-ALERT2 Equipment Health Monitor will communicate sensor related data (such as vibration, temperature, runtime
information, and device statistics) stored in the device to the mobile application. The mobile application will send
commands to the device.
The Mobile application will back up device data as well as app usage information on the data servers.
The data servers will send the mobile application equipment technical data. For full details about data storage and rights
please review the Privacy Policy.
The i-Alert2 may use Version 1 or Version 2 firmware. To determine which version you have, in the App go to "Equipment
Info, i-ALERT Information" where the device version number will be shown., Alternatively, for the Version 2 units, the
sticker on the back of the device will have a manufacturing date after 8/22/2016.
Alarm mode
The i-ALERT2 Equipment Health Monitor enters alarm mode when either vibration or temperature limits are exceeded over
two consecutive readings within a 10 minute period. Alarm mode is indicated with 1 (one) red flashing LED within 2 (two)
second intervals.
