Remote monitoring of your motorhome

MaxMon is a new product that uses a low-cost Android phone to monitor and control valuable remote properties like your motorhome.

It detects intruders or power cuts at your remote property. Check it hasn't gone anywhere, and if it has you can track it. Receive daily reports or immediate alerts about temperature, humidity, motion, doors, windows, liquid levels, battery health.

Define your own alerts and take control. Email yourself remote photos. Remotely switch on and off dehumidifiers, heaters, pumps or lights. Temperature too low? Humidity too high? Basement flooding? Batteries flat? Detect problems immediately and do something about them.

MaxMon's system uses low-cost Android phones running the free MaxMon app as a powerful, but affordable, internet-enabled, remote property monitoring devices.

Leave an Android phone running the free MaxMon app in your remote property and it will monitor power, location, sound and motion using its built-in sensors, and email or text you reports - for example alerting you to a power cut. You can even take remote photos.

There is an accessory called the Quatropus that plugs in between the phone and its charger and seamlessly adds a wide range of additional sensors (which monitor things) and actuators (which control things) to the MaxMon app's remote reporting, alerting and control capabilities.

There are also Quatropus bundles that include everything you need for your application (including cables), for a lower price than buying components. Decide what you want to monitor and control and add the corresponding sensors or actuators to your bundle.

The MaxMon app scans the phone and Quatropus sensors and emails or texts you scheduled reports or immediate alerts, which you can view on any email- or text-capable device - without installing special software or subscribing to a paid online service.

Use MaxMon actuators to switch mains- or battery-powered devices on or off at your remote property: on a daily schedule, automatically in response to sensor alerts or from the comfort of your armchair. A free MaxMon web application enables you to remotely configure and control the remote MaxMon app, from any location.
