The platform now features an advanced alert system, designed to efficiently notify users of specific data-related conditions on their devices. These alerts facilitate monitoring and timely responses, and are integrated into the dashboard via the "Alerts" panel. This feature provides users with a rapid, comprehensive view of their device's status, ensuring they are always informed about critical data points.

### a. Alert Rules

There can be two types of Alerts:&#x20;

1. **No Signal Alert:** This alert is triggered when there's an interruption in the data stream from a device for a specified duration.
2. **Signal-based Alert:** This alert type is triggered based on specific conditions set on the data points received from the device.

### b. Alert Notifications

Stay informed with real-time alerts. Choose from SMS, Email, Slack, or Webhook notifications to ensure prompt and efficient updates on your device's performance and activities.

### **Sessions**

The platform's Sessions feature offers a structured representation of a device's operational states or modes. For example, in the context of vehicles, Sessions can distinguish whether a vehicle is in a "running" or "stopped" state. Utilizing conditions, users can precisely define the transitions into or out of a session. Additionally, Sessions augment the dashboard's visualization capabilities, enabling users to swiftly gauge a device's current state and review its historical session data, thereby enhancing overall operational oversight.

### **Compare Dashboards Feature**
