The difference between Once-only alert and Continuous alert.

  • Once-only alert: Only trigger an alert the first time the alert threshold is crossed.For example, if you set an alert for a temperature greater than 15℃, you will be notified when the detected temperature reaches 15.1℃. If new temperature reading remains higher than 15℃, no new alerts will be triggered. When the temperature falls below 15℃, the alert resets and you will be notified when the temperature next exceeds 15℃.


  • Continuous alert: Trigger an alert every time the alert threshold is crossed. For example, if you set an alert for a temperature greater than 15℃, you will be notified when the detected temperature reaches 15.1℃. Each time the device records a new temperature above 15℃, it will trigger a new notification.
  • Please note, the continuous alert can generate a large amount of redundant alerts that can be annoying to certain users and also may raise concerns of spamming from email, SMS, and push notification gateway providers. Therefore, when a continuous rule is triggered by more than 5 alerts within the last hour, no further alert messages will be received until the next alert is triggered 1 hour later. The report icons in the Sensor Logs page will be displayed in red, illustrating the trigger has not been sent successfully.
