Monitoring Temperatures
Anyone authorized to log into the OnSite can view graphical displays of temperature readings taken from three embedded temperature sensors. Users can also modify graph display settings, create graph profiles, and apply a stored profile to the current graph.
The temperature sensors are located at the following locations within the OnSite:
The following figure shows an example graph.
Temperature Sensor Graph
The graph displays new readings at a specified interval. The interval between temperature readings is shown in each graph’s heading.
The following table shows graph features that can be saved in reusable profiles.
Allowed Values
-30˚F/
-5˚C
-196.6˚F/-127˚C
 
150˚F/50˚C
260.6˚F/127˚C
Specify a different temperature to use as a basis for comparing the actual temperature.
In line graphs, the Mean Temp is indicated by a red, horizontal line. In bar graphs, the colors of the bars indicate the following:
Blue – Less than mean temperature.
Red – Greater than mean temperature.
Black – Equal to the mean temperature.
75˚F/
25˚C
-196.6˚F/-127˚C
to 260.6˚F/127˚C

You can create one or more profiles that store a set of display parameters you specify, so that you can apply the same profile later. Clicking “Save Profile.” brings up the “Enter Filename to Save Profile” dialog box shown in the following figure.
In the “File Name” field, you can enter a name for a profile. When you click OK, the profile is saved in a list of profiles that appears when you click the “Set Profile from File” button.
For how the OnSite administrative and regular users can monitor temperatures, go to To Monitor the OnSite’s Temperature.
