Defining the Device Settings

Defines the device settings for motion alert events, motion alert time, and wake on motion settings when using the Web Portal.

Device settings are used to define the parameters for how the motion sensing devices perform and report motion activity in the Web Portal. The configuration for device settings applies to all Nokē devices within the facility.

To define device settings,

1. Log in to the Web Portal and click the 'Settings' tab.
2. From the 'Settings' page, click 'Facility'.
3. Modify the settings as defined below, changes are automatically saved.

Device Settings

Motion Alert Events: The motion sensors in each unit read any thermal changes in a unit. The way they determine whether these changes count as motion is by a combination of this setting and the 'Motion Alert Time' field. A sensor must detect the specified number of thermal changes in a given time frame. This setting controls how many events are needed to count as motion.

In other words, the number of events (Motion Alert Events) in the number of minutes (Motion Alert Time).

Motion Alert Time: The motion sensors in each unit read any thermal changes in a unit. The way they determine whether these changes count as motion is by a combination of this setting and the 'Motion Alert Event' field. A sensor must detect a certain amount of thermal changes in a given time frame defined here. 
In other words, the number of events (Motion Alert Events) in the number of minutes (Motion Alert Time).

Temporary Code: Activate this functionality to include a temporary code that grants access to all keypads within the facility for the day. The code changes on a daily basis and will be displayed on an accessible home page widget once enabled. The code is refreshed every night at midnight, according to the facility's time. This feature is particularly useful for granting access to maintenance workers or individuals who require temporary access to the facility. However, after the designated day, access will no longer be permitted.

See full instructions on the Temporary Code in our Creating a Temporary Access Code article.
