==Introduction to Smart Ignition Detection functionality==
Smart Ignition detection is a functionality which detects ignition by sudden external voltage jumps instead of manually predefined High and Low voltage thresholds.
Smart Ignition detection is a functionality which detects ignition by sudden external voltage jumps instead of manually predefined High and Low voltage thresholds. This feature is especially beneficial to clients who want to monitor the ignition status of a vehicle based on the voltage of the battery, irregardless of the battery's health.

• Smart Ignition Duration (s) – Time interval used for comparing current external voltage against historical external voltage configured seconds ago.

In case the vehicle has a variable voltage alternator, also known as a smart alternator, an alternative configuration is advised -- taking into account movement detection by accelerometer, in order to monitor the ignition status of the vehicle.
