Click Devices and select MX Devices to view a list of all MX Gateways associated with your HOBOlink account, set up MX Gateway alarms, and view a list of MX series logger deployments that have been uploaded to your HOBOlink account from the MX Gateway or HOBOconnect. For details on setting up a gateway or configuring loggers for upload to HOBOlink, see Getting Started.

MX Gateways

• Check the MX Gateways list to see all gateways associated with your HOBOlink account. For each gateway, you can view the name of the gateway as entered in HOBOconnect, the gateway serial number, the current status, and date and time of the last upload to HOBOlink. A status of “Missing” means the gateway has not sent a heartbeat to HOBOlink in at least 15 minutes. Check the gateway to make sure it is plugged in, the network settings are correct in HOBOconnect, and it is within range of the loggers.
• Use the Name and Serial # fields at the top of the columns to refine the list or to search for a particular gateway. Click a column heading to change the sort order of the column.
• Click this icon to unregister a gateway from your account. Any data that had been uploaded via that gateway will remain in HOBOlink.

To set up an alarm for the gateway:

1. Click Devices and select MX Devices.
2. Click Configure Gateway Alarms below the MX Gateways list.
3. Click Add New Alarm.
4. Select the alarms you want to add for the gateway:
   • Missing gateway. A gateway has not sent a heartbeat to HOBOlink for 15 minutes.
   • Missing logger. A logger has not been found by the gateway for 30 minutes.
   • Logger alarm. A logger being monitored by the gateway has tripped or cleared a sensor alarm.
   • Logger low battery. A logger being monitored by the gateway has a low battery.
5. Select whether you want gateway alarm notifications sent via email or text.
6. Enter the email address or country code destination plus cell number.
7. Click Save Alarms. You will receive an email or text whenever the selected alarms trip.

MX Devices

• Check the MX Devices list for all MX series logger deployments that have been uploaded to your HOBOlink account either by a gateway or HOBOconnect. Loggers must be configured in HOBOconnect to upload data to HOBOlink from a gateway or from HOBOconnect. See the HOBOconnect User's Guide for details. When data is uploaded for the first time for a logger deployment, a new entry is added to the list. Otherwise, an existing deployment in the list will be updated if data was previously uploaded for that logger deployment.
• Use the "Show latest deployment only" checkbox to toggle the view between all deployments and the most recent deployments only for each logger. When the checkbox is not selected, an orange dot will be displayed next to the latest deployment(s) as shown in the example.

• Use the Name, Serial #, Model, Group, and Last Data From at the top of the columns to refine the list or to search for a particular deployment. Click a column heading to change the sort order of the column.
• Click this icon to delete an individual deployment or use the checkboxes and then click "Remove Selected Deployments" to delete multiple deployments at a time.

These are the columns in the MX Devices list:

Column Name	Description
Name	The name given to the logger when it was configured. If no name was entered, then the logger serial number is used by default.
Serial #	The logger serial number.
Model	The logger model number.
Group	The group assigned to the logger in HOBOconnect (if applicable).
Last Data From	The source of the uploaded data: either HOBOconnect or the gateway name.
Last Sensor Reading	The date and time of the last reading from the most recently uploaded data.
