Offline expression event rule

Using Offline Expression you can create alerts based on your asset activity, for example, to know if the trackers are connected or not.

This guide describes how to set up an event rule that displays icon alerts for online/offline assets. The icon alert can be shown in the asset list as an additional column.

Additionally, the guide describes how to make a report to know how long those assets have been offline.
