Thanks, I am going to take a look at the 408 ControlByWeb unit. It would get us there.

Look at the ControlByWeb products, amusingly their location in Nibley UT is not far from you. I think their X-408 is cost effective at $250 and with 8 digital inputs and e-mail notifications etc. probably would serve this case well. There is also the Ethertek RMS-100, RMS-200 OR RMS-300 or the Tycon TPDIN-monitor-web3 series.

But temp and DC voltage monitoring would be handy. Not sure the differences in all his products. Email notification would probably be the best for me.

Just SNMP? If so, you need to figure out if the alarm contact is going to be changing the OID or not. Some software works better in this situation.

So before I purchased a netguardian I though I would ping the borg to see if there is a cheaper or simpler system. We recently discovered that we had a rectifier fault and an inverter fault so our system goes down during a power failure while waiting for the generator to start. I decided that we should probably monitor alarms.

Sometimes a box with built in email client is less of a hassle, I'm sure there are cloud solutions as well.

Not sure what Forrest has. Is SNMP still the defacto NMS comm method or are there better more modern stuff out there we should be looking at?
