Wireless DAQ modules

23 January 2013 Test & Measurement

Cabling and installation costs can often exceed the cost of the actual data acquisition and control modules on a distributed site; the disruption of operations can also be costly. Wireless modules make the installation of data acquisition and control systems much quicker and less costly.

Advantech has now released a new series of wireless modules with external power or battery operation and ranges from 110 to 1000 metres, suitable for use in factories, building control systems, parking systems and more. The range includes modules for digital and analog input, temperature and humidity sensors, and includes a router and gateway.

The devices communicate over the 2,4 GHz ISM band and support data rates up to 250 Kbps with star, tree and mesh topologies.
