Connectivity / platform access is activated by first message

From now, we apply the same mechanism as Sigfox – once you register a new device, we store information about the acquired connectivity product but without start-end range. The subscription will stay inactive, you will not see any dates in shopping cart or in connectivity details. Once we receive the first message, we activate your subscription and update start-end range accordingly.

You can now register large number of devices in one batch and the subscription clock will start ticking only after the first message is received, so you will not loose any time from acquired subscription in case there is a delay between device registration and device installation on site.

RSSI tester

You can send yourself a notification with current RSSI data received from Data advanced callback like this:

How-to setup the RSSI notification:

1) Make sure you have enabled “duplicates” on your Sigfox contract as a part of data advanced callback

2) Setup the new notification rule like this:

This part is a little bit tricky because you need to setup conditions in a way that data payload CANNOT pass the rule but data advanced payload WILL PASS. In such a way, the notification on short press (= data payload) will wait for the following data advanced message that is delayed by nature of Sigfox network.


3) Set message template like this:

New tracing dashboard

We have refactored the tracing dashboard from the scratch with the goal of better scaling for large number of devices (you can render up to 1.000 devices without a paging now) and with better message detail. New or imprived features:

  1. Optimised for display of large number of devices
  2. Show/hide devices based on movement activity, the last choice is stored in browser cache:
    1. Active = device updated its position in last 60 minutes
    2. Recent = device updated its position in last 24 hours (but it is not active now)
    3. Inactive = device has not updated its position in last 24h
  3. Filter devices based on Tag
  4. Message list includes messages without location data
  5. Expandable message detail – same details as on main dashboard
  6. Zoom to specific marker from the list of messages
  7. Highlight the marker on mouse over the message in message list
  8. Detail information about stopped time – calculated based on the param in Preferences
  9. Choose between roadmap and hybrid map view, the last choice is stored in browser cache
  10. Colour of movement trajectory changes based on map type

The list of messages now includes all messages, event the messages without the position. Red message = device was not moving, Blue message = device changed the location based on the preferences:

You can see a message detail, same data and structure like on the main dashboard:

Pin your favourite group

Working with multiple groups? Add them to favourites!

  1. Add the group to favourites by clicking on pin icon in Group manager:

2. Access favourite groups from top menu:

Connected FlexSense support

Added support for FlexSense from Connected Inventions.

New custom view options

  1. Tracing history right on device card:

2. Default zoom level – very handful for indoor tracing

3. Selected data to be displayed, e.g. Access Point Name instead of default event name (action):

All these settings could be done in device Settings > Custom view:

Unified battery level

All devices manage the battery status in different ways. Some are sending 3 levels, some are sending only the low battery status, some are sending volts, some mV… We are introducing unified battery level that will enable to map all device specific statuses into one battery level status with clear business meaning. There will be 4 statuses: Full, Normal, Low, Critical.

From now, the unified battery level is added to Ayga and all new SimpleHW devices using API 6. We will add to other devices once we collect the mapping data from device manufactures.

In the first phase, you will see an unified battery level right beside Sigfox LQI indicator and you will be able to use the indicator in the definition of notification rules, later you will be able to search devices by battery status.

Added Indoor Air Quality index to Airwits devices

We have implemented an indoor air quality index based on this this model.
It is being currently applied to Airwits devices but more will follow. You can also upload 2D plan of the building, multiple levels supported, and see the current level of air quality like this:

No user levels

Since we have added a support for user permissions, user levels started to be confusing…so they are gone 🙂

History of downlinks

If you need to check the downlinks the server sent to specific device, you can now search an audit log for “Sending downlink” records like this:
