# Understanding Sensors and Telemetry

> Sensors convert telemetry parameters received from a GPS Device into readable values for an Object.

Sensors convert telemetry parameters received from a GPS Device into readable values for an Object.

## What to Check

* The GPS Device must send the source parameter.
* A Sensor maps that parameter to a name and result.
* Conditions can transform raw values into operational states.
* Tracking and related features can only show received data.

## Current Jitra Workflow

Open Settings > Objects, edit an Object, then expand Sensors to review its configured telemetry.

## Reviewing the Result

Confirm the saved or displayed information matches the intended Object, users, period, and Organization workflow.

## If the Issue Continues

Review required fields, access permissions, available data, and Organization limits. Contact an Organization administrator or Jitra support when the required control is unavailable.
