Applications
From small radio networks with battery operated remote units, to
very large solar powered systems supporting in excess of 2000 outputs
and inputs, the Agile radio system is unique.
Examples of typical applications in industrialised agriculture
and water management include:
- New advanced systems
- System upgrades
- Project expansion
- Combined control and data collection
Modular control & monitoring Solution
Agile Remote Terminal Units (RTUs) come in two varieties. Control
RTU and Data Collection Platform (DCP) RTUs.
Control RTU can be configured to control from 1 to 9 valves and
read from 2 to10 water meters.
A DCP RTU can be flexibly configured to provide power to and read
data from more than 10 sensors, while logging date stamped data
for weeks.
Radio coverage problems solved
Any remote control unit is able to act as a store-and-forward (SAF)
intermediary to relay communications to or from other units on the
network.
Thus, straight out of the box, the Agile radio system can be made
to circumvent large geographic obstacles, or cover huge distances.
The Agile radio system can be easily configured for simple flat
networks or to form vast multi layered, multi directional repeater
(SAF) networks covering many tens of kilometers.
Cellular network independent wireless
Never again have your wireless technology solution rendered obsolete
by the continuous upgrade march of cellular mobile technology.
Never again pay fixed and / or variable network charges to cellular
carriers.
Never again face cellular network coverage issues.
The Agile radio system permits you to take full control of your
investment. You buy the system but never pay for its usage.
Interface, configuration, commissioning
and in-field diagnostics ease
The Agile radio system is designed with a variety of interface
options to facilitate connection to new and existing systems.
From direct connection to legacy systems via a parallel interface
supporting direct connection to controllers with no communications
ability, to sophisticated direct-connect communications supporting
Modbus and most major controller protocols.
A PC based Windows configuration utility supports full network
setup and diagnostics. Every aspect of the system is accessible
remotely, from Radio topology to the prevailing temperature or battery
capacity of an individual remote unit.
Built in tools provide extensive support for conducting pre-commissioning
radio channel quality surveys, taking the guess out of system planing
and installation.
All aspects of a working system are monitored and a snapshot overview
is provided on a PC for inspection.
Simply Advanced
With its flexibility, the network's uses extend far beyond the
field of agriculture, into industrial and commercial automation.
Its innovative design means that it is easy to both install and
use, yet powerful. The wide range of functionality results in increased
efficiency.
The Agile radio system is simply a world leader in wireless cost
effective automation and control.
