Remote monitoring system with cellular gateway

摘要

A method for monitoring at least one ambient condition at a remote site, the method executed at least in part by a computer, configures at least one sensing device at the remote site according to one or more setup instructions transmitted wirelessly from a host processor at a first site, wherein the configuration associates the at least one sensing device with a personal communications device wherein the at least one sensing device is energizable to wirelessly transmit, to the personal communications device, a sensor signal that is indicative of the at least one ambient condition according to the setup instructions. In response to the transmitted sensor signal, information about the at least one ambient condition displays on the personal communications device that is associated with the at least one sensing device.

1. A method for monitoring at least one ambient condition at a remote site, the method executed at least in part by a computer and comprising:
configuring a first sensing device at the remote site according to one or more setup instructions transmitted wirelessly from a host processor at a first site, wherein the configuration associates the first sensing device with a first contact address of a first personal communications device, and wherein the configuration further specifies upper and lower values of a range for a sensed ambient condition, wherein the first sensing device is energizable to wirelessly transmit a sensor signal that indicates a change in the sensed ambient condition, according to the setup instructions; and transmitting an alert message, in response to the transmitted sensor signal, to the first contact address of the first personal communications device that is associated with the first sensing device.
