Turn sensor activity monitoring on/off

Sensor activity monitoring (SAM) allows users to view the current status of the system's sensors.

Once SAM is enabled for sensors, sensor activity notifications can be configured to receive direct notifications about a sensor's activity by email, text message, or push notification. For more information about setting up sensor activity notifications, see Create a sensor activity notification.
