How RigSentry Works

Your RV keeps watch, even when you’re away.

RigSentry is an RV monitoring system designed to help you keep an eye on your pet and your RV. It monitors conditions inside the rig, watches for loss of shore power and lets you check your RV from your phone.

Simple by design

How does RigSentry work?

Place the RigSentry monitor inside your RV, connect it to power and set it up with the RigSentry mobile app. The monitor measures temperature, humidity and atmospheric pressure, detects whether external shore power is available, and sends monitoring data to the RigSentry cloud over Wi-Fi or optional LTE. From the app, you can check current conditions, review history and configure alerts for conditions you care about.

From box to peace of mind

Five simple steps.

RigSentry is designed to quietly monitor your RV in the background so you can spend less time worrying about what is happening inside.

1

Place it in your RV

Position the RigSentry monitor inside the living space where it can measure the conditions that matter to you and your pet.

2

Connect it

Use the RigSentry app to set up the monitor and connect to Wi-Fi. Optional LTE service provides another way for the device to stay connected while you travel.

3

Monitor your RV

RigSentry tracks temperature, humidity, pressure, shore power, battery status and device connectivity.

4

Set the alerts you want

Configure alerts for conditions such as temperature limits, high humidity, loss of power, low battery or loss of connectivity.

5

Go enjoy your day

Head to the pool, trail, restaurant or store while keeping current RV conditions available from your phone.

One monitor. Multiple safeguards.

What does RigSentry monitor?

Temperature

See how warm or cold it is inside your RV and set limits that matter for pets, cold weather and your belongings.

Humidity

Track humidity inside your RV to help identify conditions that can contribute to mold, mildew and musty odors.

Shore power

Know when external power is no longer available so you can react to a situation that could affect air conditioning, refrigeration or other powered systems.

Device health

Keep track of connectivity, cloud synchronization and backup battery status so you also know whether the monitor itself is operating normally.

Stay Connected

Wi-Fi first. LTE when you need it.

RigSentry is designed to use Wi-Fi as its primary connection. For RV owners who travel beyond reliable campground Wi-Fi, optional LTE service adds cellular connectivity for the monitor.

Common Questions

RigSentry, explained.

What does the RigSentry RV monitor measure?
RigSentry monitors temperature, humidity and atmospheric pressure inside your RV. It also monitors shore power status, internal battery status and device connectivity.
Can RigSentry tell me if my RV loses shore power?
Yes. RigSentry detects whether external shore power is present. That can be especially useful when an air conditioner, refrigerator or other important RV equipment depends on external power.
Does RigSentry work without Wi-Fi?
Wi-Fi is RigSentry's primary network connection. Optional RigSentry LTE service adds cellular connectivity for owners who want the monitor to stay connected in locations where suitable Wi-Fi is not available.
Is RigSentry useful for RV pet safety?
Yes. Pet safety is one of RigSentry's primary uses. You can monitor conditions inside the RV, watch for loss of shore power and configure alerts for temperatures or other conditions that concern you while your pet is inside.
What happens if shore power goes out?
RigSentry includes an internal backup battery. If external power is lost, the monitor can continue operating on battery power while reporting its power status when connectivity is available.
Can more than one person monitor an RV?
Yes. RigSentry supports sharing so an owner can give trusted family members or other people access to view a device and receive monitoring information.
