Alert Tuner
Select which alerts you want to receive and customize alert settings for each field
The Alert Tuner gives you full control over which alerts you want to see, how sensitive they should be, and how Carbonleap notifies you. Every alert can be enabled, disabled, or customized individually on a field-by-field basis.
The settings you configure here directly determine how the alert engine evaluates conditions and when alerts are generated.
Why Use the Alert Tuner?
Different farms and crops have different tolerances and management styles. The Alert Tuner allows you to:
Enable or disable specific alerts
Adjust thresholds to match your local conditions
Choose notification methods
Set how often alerts should re-fire
Personalize messaging for your team
Prioritize alerts based on severity
This ensures Carbonleap’s alerts are aligned with your unique operational needs.
Overview of the Alert Tuner Screen
At the top of the page, you see the crop, variety, location, field name, and acreage you are configuring. This confirms the alert settings apply only to the selected field.
You can also:
Search alerts using the Search alerts… bar
Scroll through all available alerts
Expand an alert to adjust its settings
Configuring Individual Alerts
Each alert displays:
1. Alert Name
For example:
Good Spray Window Alert
Water Deficit Alert
These are descriptive and tied to specific agronomic conditions.
2. Alert Summary
A short explanation of why the alert matters.
Examples:
Forecasts for wind, temperature, and precipitation indicate an ideal spray window.
Low canopy moisture (NDMI) combined with high evaporative demand indicates vines are running a water deficit.
This helps users understand what is being detected at a glance.
3. Priority Level
Each alert includes a priority label such as:
Low
Medium
High
This reflects the potential impact on crop performance or operations.
4. Enable / Disable Alert
The toggle labeled Use Setting allows you to:
Turn the alert Active
Or disable it entirely
If disabled, the alert engine will not generate this alert for the selected field.
Customizing Alert Parameters
Each alert provides field-specific tuning parameters.
Example: Good Spray Window Alert
Settings you can adjust:
Max Wind Speed (mph) Maximum wind allowed for a safe spray window.
Min Spray Temp (°F) Minimum temperature acceptable for spraying.
Max Spray Temp (°F) Maximum temperature before spray efficiency or safety is compromised.
Max Rainfall (in) Maximum precipitation allowed within the window.
Alert Reissue Delay (days) Minimum number of days before the same alert can re-trigger.
Notification Method Currently: Dashboard (More options coming in future releases).
Custom Message Add your own message to display alongside the alert.
Example: Water Deficit Alert
Settings include:
NDMI Percentile Threshold (1–50) Defines how low canopy moisture must fall compared to historical patterns.
ET0 Percentile Threshold (50–99) Defines how high evaporative demand must be before it becomes concerning.
Alert Reissue Delay (days) Controls how frequently this alert can fire again.
Notification Method Currently: Dashboard
Custom Message Add your own field-specific guidance or SOP reminders.
Notification Methods
Today, alerts can appear on the Dashboard. Future updates will include:
Email notifications
Mobile push notifications
SMS alerts
Task auto-creation
When additional methods launch, they will appear as selectable options within each alert.
Custom Messages
Every alert includes a field where you can write your own instructions or reminders.
Examples:
“Coordinate with irrigation team before acting.”
“Check block 1 first—historically dries out faster.”
“Use SOP 3.2 for spray conditions.”
This is especially useful for:
Farm managers guiding teams
Consultants documenting recommendations
Standardizing workflow across workers
Save or Cancel Changes
Save Changes applies all adjustments
Cancel discards modifications
Changes take effect immediately and influence:
How alerts are calculated
When alerts fire
What appears in Monitor Farm
How sensitive the field is to environmental changes
When to Update Alert Settings
You may want to revise tuning when:
Seasonal weather patterns shift
Spraying windows differ from default assumptions
Irrigation strategy changes
Field-specific thresholds need refinement
You want to reduce noise or increase sensitivity
You start seeing alerts too frequently or not frequently enough
Alert tuning ensures Carbonleap adapts to your exact management style.
Summary
The Alert Tuner provides:
Complete control over alert activation
Adjustable thresholds for precision
Custom messaging for team coordination
Notification preferences
Field-level customization
This makes Carbonleap’s alerting system flexible, personalized, and deeply aligned with your crop’s requirements and your operational expectations.
