Sensors connected to gateways, like displays or data loggers, require specialized programs to monitor the compressed air system effectively. Air monitoring equipment software is used alongside measurement devices to capture essential metrics such as airflow output and energy consumption.

Some offer a live view of the system, triggering alarms when limit values are reached, generating automatic reports, and aiding users in understanding their system dynamics. There are also software programs capable of analyzing extensive datasets, creating informative graphical representations, and providing real-time values for each sensor. They organize larger systems into manageable groups for easier monitoring.
