Short answer

How can I check if my silo sensors are working?

Your AI pulls live battery and signal data directly from your hardware. You'll see exactly which sensors are dying or losing connection so you can fix them before data gaps occur. You'll get a clear view of your hardware status.

Hardware status outcomes.

Where your data lands.

The AI organizes hardware status into actionable categories.

CRITICAL

Immediate hardware failures

The AI identifies sensors that have lost signal or power. You get a list of specific silos that need physical inspection right now.

WARNING

Low battery alerts

The AI flags sensors with dwindling power levels. You'll know which units to swap batteries in before they go dark.

STABLE

Healthy sensor networks

The AI confirms which silos have strong signals and full batteries. This gives you confidence that your inventory numbers are accurate.

HUMAN

Manual maintenance tasks

The AI hands off specific repair instructions to you. You decide when to send a technician to a specific silo based on the health report.

The workflow

What your AI does when the status changes.

The AI handles the heavy lifting of scanning your hardware so you don't have to log into multiple dashboards.

  1. Identify your assets

    The AI starts by pulling a full list of your active silo locations.

    get_silos

  2. Check hardware status

    It then pulls the specific battery and signal metrics for every sensor in those silos.

    get_sensor_health

  3. Analyze for issues

    The AI compares the current readings against healthy thresholds to find outliers.

    get_sensor_health

  4. Report findings

    The AI summarizes the health of your entire network or focuses on specific problem silos.

FAQ

How this task behaves.

  • 01

    Can the AI fix a sensor with low battery?

    No. The AI can only report the battery level. You have to physically replace the battery yourself.

  • 02

    Will the AI change my sensor settings?

    No. The tools only allow the AI to read health and location data. It cannot modify hardware configurations.

  • 03

    How often does the AI check the sensor health?

    The AI checks the data whenever you ask it a question or trigger a prompt.

  • 04

    Can I see which specific silo a sensor belongs to?

    Yes. The AI uses silo data to map every sensor to its correct location.

  • 05

    Does the AI report signal strength?

    Yes. It pulls signal strength metrics to help you identify connectivity issues.
