A Farmer Protected His $7,000 Worth of Meat in Farm With MOCREO A Real-Time Monitoring System

Jim Jenca is a farmer with over $7,000 worth of meat stored in three freezers, each containing more than $2,000 worth of inventory. After previously losing his valuable meat due to a breakdown in the compressor and evaporator of one freezer, Jim knew he needed a reliable system to alert him if the temperature in any of his freezers rose unexpectedly. Despite repairs, the loss of his inventory was a heavy blow, and he wanted to ensure it never happened again.

That’s when Jim discovered MOCREO. 

– The MOCREO Solution –

Jim was attracted to MOCREO because of its 24/7 real-time temperature monitoring system. This solution allowed him to monitor his freezers remotely and receive instant alerts if temperatures exceeded the set thresholds. MOCREO’s system is designed to send push notifications, emails, and even trigger an alarm through the MOCREO Hub. This meant Jim could be notified in multiple ways, ensuring that no temperature issue would go unnoticed.

Since Jim’s freezers are housed in a cabin 35 feet away from his main house, he placed the MOCREO Hub in his bedroom. This would allow the Hub’s beep alarm to wake him if the temperature in any of the freezers rose overnight. While MOCREO supports push notifications and email alerts, Jim knew his phone would be in sleep mode at night, so the Hub’s alarm was his best defense against losing more meat.

– Addressing a Signal Issue –

There was one challenge: the distance between Jim’s bedroom and the cabin where the freezers were located weakened the signal from the sensors. To solve this, MOCREO recommended installing an additional Hub in the cabin. This extra Hub would boost the signal strength, ensuring the sensors could still communicate effectively with the system.

However, Jim still needed to ensure that he could hear the Hub’s beep alarm in his bedroom if a problem occurred during the night.

– A Simple but Effective Fix –

MOCREO’s system provided a simple and effective solution: Jim could assign the beeping alarm to a specific Hub. He configured the system so that the Hub in the cabin guaranteed strong communication between the sensors and the system, while the Hub in his bedroom would sound the alarm if the temperature exceeded the set threshold. This way, Jim could rest assured that any issues with his freezers would trigger a beep alarm in his bedroom, waking him in time to address the problem.

With MOCREO’s  24/7 temperature monitoring, remote alerts (push notifications and emails), and customized Hub alarms, Jim no longer has to worry about unexpected freezer malfunctions costing him his inventory. The combination of real-time monitoring and the ability to boost signal strength with additional Hubs has given Jim the peace of mind that his investment is protected, day and night. For Jim, MOCREO is more than a monitoring system—it’s a safeguard for his livelihood.
