Controlant Support Center

Average of the temperature reading sent from loggers every 10 minutes during a shipment.

Refers to the level of stored potential energy in a device’s battery.

A temperature level and time limit rule, set by the customer. Examples of boundaries are "Upper" and "Lower."

The charger for loggers with low battery levels. The charging station can charge a maximum of five loggers at once. An LED light indicates whether the station is in use or not.

The stop button on the logger has been pressed, and the status changed in the Controlant system.

A method specified in the system. Determines when the logger stops recording data for the shipment. The available methods are Auto (Geofence), Button, Specify time, Geofence OR Button, and Geofence AND Button. Also known as the "Stop method." Both methods are equivalent.

A type of software that is embedded directly in a piece of hardware to make the hardware work as intended. At Controlant, it manages the logger's monitoring and USB upload functions. The Firmware is considered a component of the device itself.

The geofence is the area around the shipping or receiving site where the device is considered at origin or destination. Different geofence radiuses — between 1–15 kilometers — can be selected in the Supply Chain Monitoring (SCM) system.

Global Positioning System.

A configurable period where the logger is instructed not to report the temperature data either at the start or end of a shipment.

Internet of Things. The collective network of connected devices and the technology facilitates communication between devices and the Cloud, as well as between the devices themselves.

The Saga logger has a light sensor positioned below the display. The device measures light intensity every 10 seconds and compares the last measurement value to the current one. It reports a light event if it reaches a certain threshold in change.

Also known as long-term stability. The measured reading of the amount of change at the same pressure and ambient conditions over a given period. LTD is typically quoted as an annual figure.

A severity level used to indicate when temperature is approaching levels which, if reached, impacts product quality. The levels may be low, medium, or high.

A measure of how well the data is transmitted.

The logger is awakened from the Standby Mode by pressing and holding this button. The shipment to which the logger is assigned is started.

The method that is specified in the system which determines when the logger starts recording data for the shipment. The available start methods are Auto (Geofence), Button, Specify time, and Geofence OR Button.

An Event is registered by pressing the Stop button.

The method that is specified in the system determines when the logger stops recording data for the shipment. The available start methods are Auto (Geofence), Button, Specify time, Geofence OR Button, and Geofence AND Button. Also known as the Delivery method. Both methods are equivalent.
