Managing Sensors

Your Touchstone system supports the following sensors.  Click HERE to view the activation page where you can view guides for individual devices.

  • Door/Window Sensors
  • Motion Sensors
  • Carbon Monoxide Sensors(CO)
  • Water/Flood Sensors

The main page of the Subscriber Portal displays the status of all your sensors:

SPManageSensors

If the sensor icon is green, the sensor is in normal state. If a door/window icon is red, then the door or window is open. Otherwise, the sensor has detected motion, carbon monoxide, or water.

When you hover the mouse over the SPSensorIconicon for any sensor, the recent history for that device appears.  As soon as you move the mouse, the recent history disappears.

On the Main page, in the Sensor Activity Tool, click MANAGE SENSORS or on the Toolbar, click SENSORS>Sensors to display the sensor page.
