Getting Started in OWS

OWS Alerts work by defining Rules for system Events. Each time a recorder loses connection or a sensor is triggered, it is registered as an event in the server software. These events are transmitted to the cloud as part of their lightweight connection to OWS. There, the events are compared against the Alert Rules defined by the user, and, if they meet the conditions of the rule, an Alert is generated.
