wiSeries Wireless Monitor, Scanner & Controller (Receiver)
|
The radio is a High Power IEEE 802.15.4 compliant transmitter operating at 2.4 GHz designed to transmit over greater distances and through more obstructions than the standard transmitter.
These wireless sensors transmit up to 1000m (3280’)--without obstructions or interferences to a zSeries coordinator or wiSeries meter-controller. The coordinators and controllers connect directly to an Ethernet network and the Internet and serve active Web Pages to display and chart the data.
You can monitor and record Analog Voltage and Current, Temperature, Relative Humidity, and Barometric Pressure over an Ethernet network or the Internet without any special software--just your Web Browser.
You can even set alarms to be notified by email. Alarms can be sent to a single user or to a group distribution list, including text messages to cell phones.
These wiSeries wireless sensors are designed for demanding industrial applications indoors and harsh outdoor environments. The electronics are protected in a rugged weatherproof polycarbonate NEMA4 / IP65 rated housing. The rugged industrial sensors are supplied with ten feet of cable.
|
WIRELESS SENSORS
Wireless sensors are available with external probes appropriate for an almost unlimited variety of industrial and commercial applications.
NEWPORT offers a selection of end devices for a variety of applications. The high power end device supports one external sensor. The external sensors are designed for harsh environments such as outdoor weather, in HVAC ducts, in freezers and refrigerators.

High performance, high power End Devices in NEMA4 enclosures come with two choices:
The AC version (zED-P, zED-LCD) is powered by a 5 Vdc universal AC power adapter that operates on any voltage worldwide (110 to 240 Vac). Should AC power fail, the unit can operate on a 3.6V ultra-long-life lithium back-up battery (included).
A number of completely wireless wireless End Devices are powered by two AA (zED-LCD-AA) or two C-cell (zED-CCELL) alkaline batteries. These End Devices can operate for weeks, months, or years before changing the batteries. Battery life depends on the type of sensor and other user settings such as the frequency of transmission.
ALARM AND EMAIL
The wiSeries wireless sensor system can trigger an alarm if variables go above or below a set point that you determine. Your alarm can be sent by email to a single user or to a group distribution list, including text messages to cell phones and PDA’s.
The NEWPORT "MailNotifier" software is a free and easy program for this application.The meter-controller connects directly to an Ethernet Network or the Internet. Unlike an RS232 or USB device, it does not require a host computer.
EMBEDDED WEBSERVER
The NEWPORT wiSeries wireless sensor system is easy to install, simple to operate, and features NEWPORT
’s award-winning iServer technology with an Embedded Web Server that requires no special software.
|
CHARTS AND GRAPHS
The NEWPORT wiSeries system serves Active Web Pages to display real time readings and charts of temperature, humidity, and barometric pressure. You can also log data in standard data formats for use in a spreadsheet or data acquisition program such as Excel or Visual Basic.
NEWPORToffers a free and easy to use program for logging data to Excel. The virtual chart viewed on the web page is a JAVA™ Applet that records a chart over the LAN or Internet in real time. With the NEWPORT wiSeries system there is no need to invest time and money learning a proprietary software program to log or chart the data.
Chart scales are fully adjustable on the fly. For example, the chart can display one minute, one hour, one day, one week, one month or one year. Temperature and humidity can be charted across the full span (-40 to 125°C, and 0 to 100% RH) or within any narrow range such as (20 to 30°C).
NEWPORToffers an
OPC Server
software ($295) that makes it easy to integrate the wiSeries wireless sensor system with many popular Data Acquisition and Automation programs offered by Omega, Wonderware, iConics, Intellution, Rockwell Automation, and National Instruments, among others.
