How do sensors, hubs, and equipment allocation work in Safe Food Pro?
In Safe Food Pro, sensors, hubs, and equipment allocation operate based on specific principles and processes. Below is an overview of how these components function and troubleshooting tips for common issues.
Sensor-to-Hub Communication
Autonomous Operation: Sensors in Safe Food Pro broadcast their readings autonomously. Hubs act as receivers that pick up these signals and upload the data to the system. There is no manual assignment of sensors to specific hubs. Instead, the dashboard displays the hub ID of the hub that successfully receives and uploads the sensor’s signal.
Multiple Hubs: Multiple hubs can operate in the same area without requiring individual assignments. Security is maintained by the account to which the sensors are assigned, ensuring that readings are only accessible within the designated account.
Sensor Allocation to Equipment
Required Fields: When allocating a sensor to equipment, ensure that all required fields in the equipment setup are correctly filled. For example, the "Category" field must be set appropriately (e.g., Freezer). If this field is missing or incorrect, the system will block the save. Correct the required fields and try saving again.
Hub Functionality and Security
No Account or Site Assignment: Hubs are not assigned to specific accounts or sites. They function as general receivers for sensor transmissions. The security of the data is enforced by the account to which the sensors are linked, ensuring that only authorized users can view the readings.
Summary
In summary, sensors and hubs in Safe Food Pro operate autonomously, with hubs acting as receivers for sensor data. Sensor allocation to equipment requires careful attention to required fields, and hubs are not tied to specific accounts or sites but maintain security through sensor account assignments. By understanding these principles, users can effectively troubleshoot and manage their Safe Food Pro setup.
