LCT Rules are pre-configured IoT smart rules specifically designed for the capabilities of the Low-Cost Tracker (LCT) devices.
Key LCT Rules and Their Functions
| Rule Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Battery Level Rule | Triggers an alert when the battery level falls below a defined threshold. |
| Geofence Rule | Notifies when the device enters or exits a predefined geographic area. |
| Increase Severity Rule | Escalates alerts if a critical event remains unresolved for a specified duration. |
| Multiple Threshold Rule | Allows users to define multiple sensor-based thresholds (e.g., temperature, acceleration). |
| Missing Measurement Rule | Sends an alert if the device fails to report data within a set time frame. |
Use Cases
Industrial Equipment Monitoring
Rule: Battery Level Rule
Scenario: An LCT is attached to a remote industrial sensor monitoring tank levels. If the battery drops below 15%, a warning is sent to the maintenance team, ensuring preventive action before data transmission is lost.
Smart Logistics and Supply Chain
Rule: Geofence Rule
Scenario: A logistics company uses LCT devices inside shipment containers. When a package reaches a distribution center, the system automatically updates the tracking status and sends a notification to the recipient.
Safety and Security Monitoring
Rule: Increase Severity Rule
Scenario: An LCT is installed in a chemical storage facility to detect abnormal temperature spikes. If an initial alert is ignored for 10 minutes, the system escalates the alert to a higher severity, notifying emergency responders.
Agricultural Monitoring
Rule: Multiple Threshold Rule
Scenario: A farm uses LCTs to monitor soil temperature and moisture levels. The rule is configured to send an alert if:
- Temperature exceeds 35°C 🔥
- Soil moisture drops below 20% 🌱
- Both conditions are met simultaneously (indicating a high risk of crop damage).
This triggers automated irrigation to prevent soil dryness.
IoT Device Health Monitoring
Rule: Missing Measurement Rule
Scenario: A Telecom company deploys LCTs to track signal strength in remote towers. If a device stops sending data for more than 2 hours, the maintenance team is alerted to check for hardware issues.
