Alarms	*		There are two types of alarms in HOBOnode Manager: sensor alarms and system alarms. With sensor alarms, you can set an alarm to trip when a sensor reading is out of a range you specify. With system alarms, you can set an alarm to trip when a node is missing from the network or has a low battery
Plotting & Export Data	*		Using the Plot/Export Wireless Data capability, you can plot data directly in HOBOware or you can export it to a text or .csv file to open in another program for further analysis.

- Processor Speed, Memory and Disk Space

	High End	Mid Range	Low End	Lowest End
CPU	2.9 GHz dual core	2.0 GHz dual core	1.8 GHz single core	1.8 GHz single core
RAM	3 GB	2 GB	1.5 GB	1 GB
Disk Space * see note	100 GB+	50 GB+	20 GB+	300 MB
User Model	4	3	2	1

The User Model row suggests some guidelines for using the Processor Speed and Memory table:

User Model 1 - Using HOBO Data loggers only, no data nodes - traditional desktop user
User Model 2 - Using HOBO Data loggers and up to 5 data nodes, 20 sensors
User Model 3 - Using HOBO Data loggers and up to 50 data nodes, 100 sensors
User Model 4 - Using HOBO Data loggers and up to 100 data nodes, 200 sensors

* Disk Space - Defining the disk space requirements for HOBOware depends on the proposed use. The table above describes the disk space needed for a traditional desktop user, allowing for installation of the program and storage of data files. For users of HOBO data nodes, the space requirements depend on a variety of factors, including the number of nodes, the number of sensors, the frequency of data sampling, the longevity of deployments, and other factors.

Conductivity:

The Conductivity assistant provides easy conversion to specific conductance and salinity and enables start/end-point calibration to compensate for any fouling. Available for free download.

Growing Degree Days:

Growing Degree Days is a measurement of growth potential given historical temperature data. It can be a measure of crop or pest maturity, given the input parameters. Available for free download.

Grains Per Pound:

Also known as Humidity Ratio or Mixing Ratio, Grains Per Pound is a measure of the mass in grains of H2O in otherwise dry air. Available for free download.

Barometric Compensation:

This is useful for third-party sensors that output voltage or current, as well as calibration of leaf wetness and soil moisture sensors. Available for free download.

Pulse Scaling:

Pulse scaling allows you to convert data recorded from a third-party pulse output sensor to the actual measurement units. This is useful for third-party rain gauges, flow meters, etc. Available for free download.

kWh Assistant:

The kWh Assistant uses a pulse series to produce one or more of the following: Energy used per interval (in kWh), Average Power per interval (in kW), and Usage Cost. The assistant requires knowledge of the type of Energy Transducer and Current Transformer (CT) used. Available for free download.
