Your Grain Bin From Wherever You Are
AGI SureTrack Turns Bin Data Into Remote Visibility
You cannot be standing beside every grain bin all day. AGI SureTrack® gives you a way to see supported BinManager and BinMonitor information from a connected device, so changing conditions do not have to stay hidden until your next trip to the bin.
The Short Answer
AGI SureTrack® is the software side of connected AGI grain-bin monitoring. Compatible hardware measures conditions at the bin and sends information to SureTrack. From there, you can review available temperature and moisture data, system information and alerts through the SureTrack FARM platform and supported mobile access.
What Does AGI SureTrack Actually Do?
SureTrack does not replace the sensors and hardware installed at the bin. Think of SureTrack as the place where information from those components comes together so you can see what the system is reporting without standing at the bin.
Shows Grain Conditions
Review supported temperature and moisture information collected from sensing locations throughout the stored grain.
Brings Multiple Bins Together
Information from connected bins can be organized within one SureTrack account instead of treating every bin as a completely separate monitoring job.
Displays Trends and Detail
SureTrack provides ways to review current and historical system information so changing conditions can be viewed in context rather than as one isolated reading.
Delivers System Alerts
Configured alerts can notify users about conditions or system events that deserve attention, helping bring a changing situation to your attention sooner.
How Does Information Get From the Grain Bin to Your Screen?
The useful part of remote monitoring is the complete path. Sensors and other installed components collect information at the bin. The communications hardware then makes supported information available in SureTrack, where you can review it on connected devices.

What Can You See Remotely?
Exactly what appears depends on the hardware and configuration connected to the bin. A full BinManager automation system can expose more system information and control-related status than a monitoring-only configuration.
01
Temperature
Review available in-grain temperature information across sensing locations in the bin.
02
Moisture
See supported grain-moisture information and how conditions vary throughout monitored grain.
03
Alerts
Receive configured notifications when supported system or grain-condition events deserve attention.
04
Trends
Review changing conditions over time rather than depending only on today's single reading.
05
System Status
Depending on the configuration, SureTrack can make equipment and communication information visible alongside grain data.
06
Multiple Bins
Connected bins can be reviewed through your SureTrack account, which is especially useful when storage is spread across a farm or multiple sites.
What Kind of Alerts Can SureTrack Provide?
Alerts are one of the most useful parts of remote grain-bin monitoring because you do not have to be actively staring at the platform for every condition change. Available alerts depend on the installed equipment and system configuration.
Grain-Condition Alerts
In-grain sensing can identify conditions such as a developing warming trend or a temperature that meets the system's configured hotspot criteria.
Communication Alerts
If a connected system stops reporting normally, a communication alert can help separate a visibility problem from a normal stream of updated readings.
Equipment-Related Alerts
On appropriately equipped systems, SureTrack can surface information associated with fan, heater, pressure or power conditions that require attention.
Account and Service Notices
SureTrack can also provide system-related notifications, including communication and applicable data-service or subscription notices.
An Important Distinction
Remote Visibility Depends on Communication
If an installed system loses its connection to SureTrack, the information you see remotely may stop updating until communication returns. That does not automatically mean the grain itself changed or that every part of the local system stopped working. A stale or missing remote reading should be treated as a communication or system-status question that needs context.
Does SureTrack Mean My Fans Are Automatically Controlled?
Not by itself. This is one of the most important distinctions to understand. SureTrack is the software interface. Physical fan and heater automation depends on the hardware installed at the bin.
Monitoring Configuration
A monitoring system can collect information, report conditions, display data in SureTrack and provide supported alerts without having the physical relay and control hardware required to automatically switch fans or heaters.
BinManager Automation
A properly equipped BinManager adds the control hardware needed to use grain and environmental information when operating connected fans and heaters according to the configured system strategy.
Why Is Remote Grain-Bin Monitoring Useful?
Less Guessing Between Bin Checks
Remote readings give you another way to understand what has been happening between trips to the grain site.
Better Context From Trends
Seeing how a reading has moved over time can be more informative than reacting to one number without knowing what came before it.
Earlier Awareness
Configured alerts can draw attention to changing conditions or system events rather than waiting for the next routine physical check.
Easier Multi-Bin Visibility
Farms with several monitored bins can review available information through one account instead of treating every storage location as a completely separate process.
Remote monitoring gives you information. That information still needs context.
An alert or unusual reading is a reason to look closer, not automatically proof of one specific problem. Compare nearby readings, trends, system status and communication information. If something does not make sense, A&S can help you work through what the system is reporting.
The A&S Difference Is the People Behind the Screen
SureTrack gives you remote information about the system. When the information raises a question, A&S gives you a local team to call. Whether you're trying to understand a reading, an alert or the difference between monitoring and automation, our BinManager team can help you sort through what you're seeing and determine the right next conversation.
AGI SureTrack & Remote Grain Bin Monitoring FAQs
What is AGI SureTrack?
AGI SureTrack is the software platform used with compatible AGI grain-monitoring hardware to display supported bin data, system information and alerts through connected devices.
Can I check my grain bins from my phone?
Compatible SureTrack-connected systems can make supported grain-bin information available through mobile and other internet-connected devices. What you can see depends on the hardware and configuration installed at each bin.
Can SureTrack show grain temperature and moisture?
Yes, when compatible in-grain sensing hardware is installed. SureTrack displays the information collected by the connected monitoring system rather than measuring the grain itself.
Does SureTrack send alerts?
SureTrack supports configurable notifications associated with supported grain-condition and system events. Available alerts depend on system hardware, settings and configuration.
Does SureTrack automatically control my grain-bin fans?
SureTrack alone does not give a bin physical control of fans or heaters. Automatic control requires the appropriate BinManager control hardware and compatible electrical setup at the bin.
What happens if my bin loses communication?
Remote information may stop updating while communication is unavailable. A communication interruption should be evaluated separately from the actual grain condition and local equipment status.
Can I monitor more than one grain bin in SureTrack?
Yes. Supported connected bins can be organized within a SureTrack account, allowing available information from multiple bins to be reviewed through the platform.
