Heartbeat System
Every connected device sends a heartbeat every 60 seconds containing:
- CPU usage — Current processor utilization

- Disk space — Available storage
- Temperature — Device temperature (on supported hardware)
- Wi-Fi signal — Wireless signal strength
- Content sync % — How much content has been downloaded
- Current playlist — What is currently playing

Alerts
GoVista automatically generates alerts for:
- DEVICE_OFFLINE — No heartbeat received for over 5 minutes
- DISK_FULL — Storage space below threshold
- CPU_OVERHEAT — Temperature exceeds safe limits
