Configuration And Setup Screens
Switch sensors are those that provide real-time status information showing whether a sensor is 'in' or
'out' of an alert state. These sensors have an internal switch that is monitored to see if the switch is open/
closed, on/off, make/break, etc. Sensor status can be logged for historical reference although this type
of sensor does not allow threshold monitoring like digital sensors. Users can still turn the logged status
information into graphs or charts via other applications. The most important benefits here are knowing
what percentage of time a sensor is in an alert stage or what part of the day or year the associated
conditions are most often experienced. Current switch sensors from AVTECH are presented below and
in the following External Sensor Options chapter.
