Monnit’s MOWI Open-Closed Sensor uses an external switch and trigger magnet to detect status—when the magnets meet, a door or window is closed. The sensor can be configured via iMonnit only to send notifications during specific dayparts, such as after-hours. Data also sheds light on access patterns—a boon for the foodservice, healthcare, and hospitality sectors. Ready for restaurant walk-ins, vaccine fridges or ultralow temperature (ULT) freezers, retail, and more.

The Open/Closed Sensor provides information on the status of doors, windows, cabinets, etc. Know if a building or specific area is being accessed when it should not be, or if a door or window has been left open. An integrated 802.11 b/g radio allows the sensor to work with any existing Wi-Fi network. Monnit Wi-Fi sensors can be easily programmed with your Wi-Fi network’s WEP or WPA(2) security via the free MoWi Setup Utility (PC application) and a MoWi USB programming cable.

The Monnit Wi-Fi Open/Closed Sensor uses a wired reed switch to detect the presence or removal of a magnetic source. When the sensor detects that the magnet is removed or returned it sends the information to the iMonnit Online Sensor Monitoring and Notification System. The data is stored in the online system and can be reviewed and exported as a data sheet or graph. Notifications can be set up through the online system to alert the user when a magnetic source is present or not with the ability to only notify within time-of-day parameters.
