1. An ostomy system comprising:
a base plate configured to be placed on a skin surface of a user, the base plate comprising:
a plurality of sensing zones, comprising:
a first sensing zone defined by at least a first electrode of a plurality of electrodes; and
a second sensing zone defined by at least a second electrode of the plurality of electrodes; and
a monitor interface configured to operably couple the plurality of electrodes to a monitor device of the ostomy system; and
the monitor device, comprising:
a communication interface for communicating with an external device;
a processor; and
a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the processor of the monitor device, perform a set of operations, the set of operations comprising:
obtaining, via the monitor interface of the base plate, ostomy data from the plurality of electrodes;
processing the ostomy data to generate monitor data indicative of an operating state of the base plate, wherein the operating state;
is indicative of a leakage state of one or more sensing zones of the plurality sensing zones; and
is one of a plurality of operating states, comprising a default operating state, a first operating state indicating presence of a fluid in a sensing zone of the plurality of sensing zones, and a second operating state indicating a greater presence of fluid than the first operating state; and
providing, via the communication interface, the monitor data to the external device, wherein the monitor data correspond to a representation of the operating state of the base plate for display by the external device, wherein the representation comprises an indication of the leakage state of one or more sensing zones of the plurality of sensing zones.
