Your Dashboard shows all connected Litter Robots at a glance:
- Robot Status — Current state (Ready, Cycling, Error, etc.)
- Waste Drawer Level — Visual indicator of how full the drawer is
- Online/Offline — Connection status to Whisker's servers
- Monitoring Status — Whether auto-fix is enabled
Click on any robot card to see detailed information and settings.
Step 4: Configure Monitoring
On your robot's detail page, you can:
- Enable/Disable Monitoring — Toggle automatic issue detection and fixes
- Set Drawer Notifications — Get alerts when the waste drawer reaches a certain level
- View Activity History — See recent status changes and actions taken
What Does Monitoring Do?
When monitoring is enabled, RobotSitter checks your robot every few minutes and automatically:
- Turns it back on if it's unexpectedly off or offline
- Restarts it if stuck in an error state (like CST, Drawer Full, etc.)
- Logs all activity so you can see what happened while you were away
That's it! You're all set.
RobotSitter is now watching your Litter Robot 24/7. If a common error is detected, RobotSitter steps in automatically to get it running again.
