The Weblog Platform
The data can be accessed from a smartphone with the ICU tech WebLog app (chapter 4) or from a PC via the web browser (chapter 5). The ICU tech WebLog app is available for Android and IOS.
The sensors deliver their measurement data via ICU gateway to the ICU tech WebLog server. This server monitors the data and triggers an alarm via e-mail and SMS in case of a deviation. Each alarm must be signed by a user for traceability. The signature records the cause of each alarm and which user reacted to the alarm. The weblog platform enables a complete traceability of the storage temperature for each stored product.
