Welcome to Stat Temp
Invite Users and create Contacts
Some things to consider before you connect to Wi-Fi:
- Does the web connection require users to enter information on any type of captive portal/login page? This can block our devices from successfully authenticating. This will require IT involvement.
- Our Wi-Fi devices only support 2.4GHz networks. These devices will not connect to 5GHz networks. If bandsteering is enabled on your network, you may need to have it disabled.
- Confirm these ports are open:
- TCP Port 8883 outbound (MQTT over SSL), destination address: iot.stattemp.io, IP addresses 54.173.251.106 and 3.221.75.93
- Port 123 (NTP), host: pool.ntp.org
If you haven't taken advantage of our Stat Temp Web Portal yet, fret not! Fill out the form below, and we'll ensure you get set up promptly.

Invite Users and Contacts
It's important to know the distinction between contacts and users when it comes to managing interactions and permissions. Contacts are informed about system issues but cannot engage with the website, while users have the ability to log in and actively participate. Their actions are governed by the user roles they are assigned, which dictate the permissions and features available to each user. This helps ensure that access and control are effectively handled within the system.
To manage existing users or invite new ones, go to the Stat Temp website and click the gear icon at the top right corner. Then select 'Users'.
To invite a new user:
- Click on 'Invite User' at the top right of the Users page.
- In the Invite User panel, enter the new user’s email address.
- Choose their user role and, if you're using groups, assign them accordingly.
- If users will have the same group and roles, you can invite multiple users at once.
- Once you've filled out the correct information, click 'Invite' at the bottom right to send out the invitation.
To Create a new contact:
- Click on 'Create Contact' at the top of the Contacts page.
- In the 'Create Contact' panel enter the contact's first and last name.
- If the contact should receive notifications via text or call, add their phone number.
- Enter the contact’s email address.
- If you’re organizing contacts into groups, assign them as needed.
- Once you’ve entered all the information, hit 'Save' at the bottom right to add your new contact.
If you decide after you have added a contact that they should be moved to a user, you can promote contacts easily from the Contacts data grid.

Notifications
To access the notifications data grid, click the gear shift icon at the top of the Stat Temp website, then click 'Notifications'.
Your Stat Temp system comes with 4 prebuilt notifications and is set up to automatically assign notifications to your new sensors as they come online. sds
All sensors are automatically assigned to the notifications selected in your system settings.
Notification Name | Type | Notification Delay | Create Event? | Snooze | Event Details |
Excursion Event Notification | Sensor | 30 Minutes | Yes | No |
|
Missed Check-in Event Notification | Sensor | 30 Minutes | Yes | No |
|
Monitor Event Notification | Monitor | 5 Minutes | Yes | No |
|
Monitor Message Notification | Monitor | 5 Minutes | No | N/A | N/A |
To start receiving notifications, you will have to go to your notifications page and assign users to notifications.
You can receive notifications and create events for any of the following:
Sensor Notifications:
- Warning: These alerts inform you when the sensor readings are approaching critical thresholds but are not yet in critical condition.
- Critical: These alerts inform you when the sensor readings have exceeded critical thresholds and immediate action is required.
- Missed Check-in: These alerts inform you when the sensor fails to record data for two consecutive check-in intervals, which may indicate a problem with the sensor or network connectivity.
Monitor Notifications:
- Running on Power
- Running on Battery
- Low Battery
- No Battery

Events
If a notification triggers an event, that event may require specific actions to be taken before it can be closed or considered complete.
To stop receiving notifications for an event, you must acknowledge it. This lets the Stat Temp system know that someone is aware of the issue and stops the notification from repeating or proceeding to the next step in the notification chain.
Acknowledge:
Acknowledging the event will stop all notifications for that event from notifying you further.
To acknowledge an event:
- Click the link that is sent with the SMS or Email notification. This link could take you to view the Event, where you can acknowledge it or take other actions, or it could be a link that once you click it, auto-acknowledges the event.
- OR on the specific event page, click 'Acknowledge' on the right.
Acknowledge and Snooze:
During some events, notifications may use the snooze feature. When the notification is acknowledged, it only snoozes until the event either resolves itself or the snooze period ends. Once the snooze ends, the notification re-opens and the notification process starts over.
To snooze an event:
- Click the link that is sent with the SMS or Email notification. This link could take you to view the Event, where you can acknowledge it or take other actions, or it could be a link that once you click it, auto-acknowledges the event.
- OR on the specific event page, click 'Acknowledge' on the right.
- The snooze is tracked in the activities log as well.
Resolve:
You cannot resolve an Event until it has been acknowledged, but you can resolve a snoozed Event. Resolving a snoozed event will not stop it from re-opening once the snooze has ended, if the event is still active.
To resolve an event, click 'Resolve' on the specific event page.
Add Notes:
Once an event has been created, notes can be added at any time. These notes are tracked in the activity log, user, and time stamped.
To add a note to an event, click 'Add Note' on the specific event page.
For more information on Events, click here.
To Organize by Groups
Groups in the Stat Temp system are a powerful way to organize and manage access to sensors, monitors, events, and scheduled reports. By assigning users to specific groups, you ensure that they only access information pertinent to their assigned sensors. Groups can also be used for notifications, instead of adding individual users to a notification, add the whole group to receive emails, texts, or phone calls.
- From the Groups data grid, click the group you need to edit or click 'Create Group'
- In the panel, enter the group name.
- Add users and contacts to the group as needed.
- Select any sensors that need to be added to the group.
- Once you've entered all the information, click 'Save' on the bottom right.
- Invite any new users and assign new contacts to the group.
- When new sensors are added that need to be added to groups, go to the group's page, click on the group, and then select the new sensor.
- Each group will need their own notifications. Create or clone notifications for each group. Then properly assign the notifications.
