Transport Mode

Know what happens in transit

The CracklessEgg sensor travels with your eggs to measure real-world impacts, temperature, and humidity throughout handling and transport. With Transport Mode, measurement continues even when the CracklessEgg sensor is disconnected from the mobile app.
 
Reconnect at any destination, retrieve the data, and continue the same measurement run if the journey continues.

What is Transport Mode?

Transport Mode allows the CracklessEgg sensor to continue collecting data while disconnected from the mobile app. This enables the sensor to travel with the eggs and record impacts throughout the journey without requiring an active phone connection.

What problems does Transport Mode solve?

Transport Mode solves the lack of visibility during egg transport. It allows the sensor to continue collecting impact data without a continuous phone connection, helping identify where damaging events occur between departure and arrival.

Can another user reconnect to the sensor at the destination?

Yes. Once the shipment arrives, another authorized user can reconnect to the same sensor, retrieve the recorded data, upload it to the portal, and continue the run if needed.

Can a transport run be handed off multiple times?

Yes. A single run can be handed off between multiple users and locations. For example, User 1 can start the run, User 2 can reconnect at the next destination, and User 3 can continue it further along the transport chain. There is no limit to the number of sequential handoffs within the same run.

When should I use Transport Mode?

Transport Mode is ideal when eggs are being transported between facilities, hatcheries, farms, or distribution centers and the sensor needs to travel with the shipment while continuing to collect data.

Does the sensor need to stay connected to a phone during transport?

No. Once Transport Handoff is started, the sensor enters Low Power Mode, disconnects from the app, and continues recording data throughout the journey.

Can I add notes, photos, and videos during the journey?

Yes. When you reconnect to the sensor and retrieve the run data, you can add notes, photos, and videos to document conditions or observations at each stop.

Where can I review my Transport Mode data?

After completing the run, upload it from the app to the Customer Portal. There you can review impacts, temperature, humidity, notes, photos, videos, and the complete measurement timeline. Transport Mode portions are shown in gray, while connected Live Mode portions appear in green.

Do I need to update the app and sensor firmware to use Transport Mode?

Yes. Existing customers should make sure they have the latest version of the CracklessEgg app and update their sensor to the latest compatible firmware before using Transport Mode. The firmware can be updated from the sensor settings in the app while connected to the sensor.
