Overnight Monitoring

In a manufacturing plant that operates from Monday through Friday, the finished products are stored overnight in a room that must maintain a certain temperature before shipping. The temperature of the room is monitored Monday through Friday between 8:00 p.m. through 7:00 a.m. If there is any major change in the temperature then the trigger action runs.
