Eltek GenII - Model SRV450 -4G-Enabled Receiver Logger for Remote Data Monitoring and Analysis
SRV450 is a new receiver logger from Eltek designed for use with the extensive range of GenII transmitters. It is intended for users who require realtime data, multiple site access and advanced analytical software. Communications from the SRV450 to the remote server is via mobile data providing a truly single box solution.
RS232 to RS485 interface converter
This unit converts the standard RC250 or Squirrel RS232 interface to a RS485 interface; thereby allowing equipment with the RS485 interface to communicate with the receiver/logger.
- Allows much longer cable lengths than RS232 - RC250/Squirrel can be further away from the PC or other connected equipment
- All RC250 units (after serial number T-25194) are compatible with this device
If you require a new logger to work with this interface, please specify at the time of ordering. Existing loggers may need a firmware update to work with the RS485 interface - please contact Eltek for advice.
Squirrels using this interface must be mains powered.
- Compact single box solution: built-in 4G, battery back-up and 250,000 readings fall back logging.
- 24 hour back up battery, should the AC supply fail
- Button panel and LCD for metering, transmitter battery view, system diagnostics and test
- Panel mounted push-push socket to latch/unlatch Standard SIM
- Optimised data packet protocol providing cost effective use of SIM
- Text messaging for channels in alarm
- Supplied with free Gateway software.
- Optional accessories include Moxa Ethernet/internet adaptor
The SRV450 is the hub of the system. Sensor values from transmitters are held in a register that is continuously uploaded to the server, which can be located worldwide. System resilience is introduced by logging measured data in the SRV450 should mobile data connection or remote site IT fail. Used together with Eltek`s Darca software it provides a cost effective, easy to manage and maintain monitoring system, with no annual software maintenance or service charge. SRV450 data can also be viewed over the internet in a web browser using Eltek`s Darca Connect solution. Ideal for a broad spectrum of applications including:
- Remote monitoring of building performance
- Multi site storage facilities audit
- Conservation and collections cluster of buildings
- Historic house refurbishment projects
- No geographical restrictions!
SRV250 "pushes" data to the mobile network whenever a logging takes place. Provided the collection of the data has been setup at some location - either on a cloud server or on a physical PC connected to the internet - then data upload can take place. If the data collection point is unavailable, the SRV250 continues to log, storing data in its internal memory. When the data collection point is reconnected, the SRV250 automatically uploads all stored data and thereafter it returns to uploading data whenever a log takes place.
To allow the user to remotely monitor the system status, additional information such as transmitter battery levels and signal strengths is also uploaded every 24 hours at midnight.
GPRS Gateway
The Eltek Gateway program runs on a host computer under Windows at a fixed public IP. It receives the data pushed by the SRV250 and stores it in a file at a location accessible by the host computer. The file format is selectable as Windows CSV or Eltek DAT. The Gateway is designed to collect data from any number of SRV250 receiver loggers, each giving rise to its own data file. The SRV250 only communicates with the remote Gateway when it has data to send.
