ModHopper - Model R9120-3 - Wireless Meter Brochure

MODHOPPER R9120-3 anD R9120-3TThe ModHopper is a breakthrough mesh technology design that makes connecting Modbus and pulse devices simple and cost effective. Our “smart” ModHopper transceivers eliminate the need for costly wiring runs allowing users to capture meter data in the most challenging retrofit and campus environments. Collect meter points in existing buildings with minimum down-time or disruption of day-to-day operations.WHY USE MODHOPPERS FOR WIRELESS METERInGWIRELESS COMMUnICaTIOnObvius developed a wireless Modbus/Pulse transceiver to capture remote meter points. Our high-powered radios allow you to easily collect meter data from multiple buildings over long distances. Our unique “mesh” technology provides optimized routing of communications with no pc or software configuration, meaning the ModHopper works immediately “out of the box.” This self-managed mesh network means that the system will function with high reliability where other wireless systems fail due to short- or long-term interference. ModHoppers can be used with any Modbus Master or gateway making them an ideal solution for any project. Ask us about options for 256Bit AES encryption, international frequencies and extended range models.COMPaTIbILITYThe ModHopper is compatible with virtually any PLC or Modbus RTU device, allowing customers the flexibility to use the ModHopper in existing Modbus applications. The ModHopper is a “smart” device, which requires no programming. If used with the Obvius AcquiSuite, users can take advantage of numerous diagnostic tools, including a graphical display of the wireless mesh network.PaRTnERSObvius’ outstanding integration and software partners supplement our products and services to ensure you receive the very best energy monitoring solution.aPPLICaTIOnSHEaDqUaRTERSTualatin, OregonCOnTaCT USsales@obvius.com abOUT ObvIUSObvius manufactures data acquisition and wireless connectivity products specifically for energy management.
