The Smart Box Wireless Logger is where all the Smart Box Sensors and Control information is stored locally and the main communications to the Cloud Servers. The types of communications will vary depending on the logger used. Our Engineers are focused on making wireless monitoring and control easier for engineers and give access to sophisticated monitoring and control systems to the individual consumer, hobbyist, inventor and the technology minded, whether you are a start-up, small, medium or large company. Size does not matter. Our Engineers have come up with an ingenious, reliable and cost effective solution for all.
The Wireless Logger communicates with the external or built in co-ordinator and collects the Smart Box Wireless Sensor and Control information; this is then stored locally and transmitted by Wi-Fi, Mobile SIM or Ethernet (LAN) to the internet to the cloud servers. Type of communications will depend on the Logger used.
Smart Tablet/Phone
This is a very cost effective and easy to use Wireless Logger. Tablets are common and it is the next logical step to use it as a Logger for the Smart Box Wireless Sensors. Tablets are extremely reliable and have all the communications needed to collect data and relay it onto the internet through Wi-Fi or built in Mobile SIM. Additionally the screen, ease and familiarity of the software and interface, its own battery supply if mains power fails, makes it an ideal Wireless Logger and child’s play for anybody to build their own monitoring and control system. This is aimed at the general public, enthusiasts, researchers, entrepreneurs, small and medium size businesses, and engineers who want rapid deployment of a mobile and fixed monitoring solution.
Imagine having your Tablet next to you in your home, office or lab showing instantaneous sensor reading of multiple Smart Box Sensors outside, across fields, or scattered inside buildings, across a plant or workshops kilometers away. Imagine being able to setup up a mobile or fixed monitoring and control solution extremely quickly through plug and play, and having access to historical data, backed up to an online server for later analysis. Create thresholds, triggers and alarms to send warning messages and for automation control. All is quick and easy and using the tablet as a logger will save you time and money. You can mount the Tablet on a wall in a work shop, lab, inside a secure cabinet or secure store room. Use a rugged Tablet for portable onsite monitoring and maintenance requirements. It just makes logical sense to use a Tablet as a Logger in the right environment and circumstance and is an ideal replacement for handheld monitoring equipment and has the added benefit of instantaneous Cloud backup. For a more traditional engineering solution see the Smart Logger.
Smart Logger
The Smart Logger is an ideal solution for fixed or unsecure environments where a tablet could be stolen. The Smart Logger provides nearly all the functionality that the tablet does without the Touch Screen interface. The Smart Logger comes with a built in Co-ordinator; unlike the tablet you do not require to purchase a separate Co-ordinator. In addition to the Wi-Fi and Mobile SIM the Smart Logger has an Ethernet Port (LAN) for direct connection. Again, setup and installation is plug and play, just simply power on the wireless Sensors and Control Smart Boxes and they Auto connect with the Smart Logger. When using Wi-Fi and Ethernet (LAN) with secure networks we have provided an LCD display for your network administrator to configure the Smart Logger.
We have two wireless Smart Loggers; The DIN rail version, which is ideal for indoor environments and the IP66 which is ideal for outdoor environments. The indoor Smart Logger uses an industrial housing and mountable using bracket DIN rail Standard. We provide a DIN for users to easily mount it on a wall. Simply fix the small DIN rail to a wall using screws and clip the Smart Logger onto it. Removing is simple; just pull the latch to unclip. The Smart Logger is suitable for Industrial, Commercial, Home and Scientific environments.
Smart Station (Coming Soon)
The Smart Station is for large monitoring and control systems for up to 64,000 Sensors and Control Smart Boxes. We use the same Smart Box just the capacity of the communications is designed to handle thousands of Smart Box Sensors and Control Boxes across a City wide mesh network. We use the same industrial wireless communications technology used in Smart Metering called ZigBee.
