Guides

Learn how to set up Pulsar for your plant and use it every day, on your computer, your phone and the TV on the floor.

Pulsar detects when your machines run and when they stop. Your team tells it why they stopped, who operated them and what they produced. These guides show you how to set that up once, and how to use it every day.
