• Tærskler: Confirm that your set temperature/humidity thresholds are appropriate and that the actual readings are exceeding them.
• Internetforbindelse: Ensure your SENTRY device has a stable internet connection (CLOUD LED should be solid).
• Cellular Carrier: For text notifications, ensure your cellular carrier supports EMAIL2Text Gateway (most do).

5.4. Inaccurate Temperature/Humidity Readings

• Sensorplacering: Ensure the sensor is not directly exposed to airflow from vents or placed too close to the appliance walls, which can affect readings.
• Sensorskade: Inspect the sensor and its cable for any visible damage.

5.5. Alarm Sounds Continuously

• Check Conditions: Verify the temperature and humidity readings. If they are outside the set thresholds, address the underlying issue with your appliance.
• Silence Horn: Press the Horn Silence button on the device to temporarily mute the audible alarm.
