FAQ - Nestlab Advanced Starter Kit

Do I need the online platform?

No. NestLab Monitor runs entirely on a lab computer. The free three-month trial lets you compare it with the cloud platform.

How far can the kit be extended?

The included dongle reaches up to 200 nodes, so the setup grows by adding Advanced Nodes, houses and chargers.

Which houses are included?

Five Mouse Houses and five Angled Houses, plus five Housing Caps for the cages without a node.

The NestLab Advanced Starter Kit is a complete monitored pilot. It contains two sensor nodes, NestLab Monitor software with the dongle that links them to a lab computer, a charger, ten houses and five caps. You can set it up in an afternoon and start recording nest and rodent surface temperatures without handling the animals.

A free three-month NestLab Professional trial is included, so you can also try remote access, dashboards and reports before deciding whether the cloud platform fits your facility.

Why it helps

  • Complete pilot setup in one order, from nodes to software
  • Temperature controlled on the animal's surface, measured by a 32 × 32 IR thermal camera
  • Live data on a lab computer with no internet connection needed
  • Scales to up to 200 nodes on the included dongle by adding Advanced Nodes, houses and chargers
  • Compare offline and cloud monitoring with the free trial
