GSM-PRO2 | The Solution

The GSM-PRO2 offers the possibility to monitor and control sensors and actuators remotely, without being depending on your local IT network infrastructure. The GSM-PRO2 uses 4G, 3G and 2G frequency bands from random providers with a subscription or prepaid SIM card. The GSM-PRO2 operates as standalone solution in existing processes. For example parallel to a PLC.

The GSM-PRO2 module can communicate in multiple ways with the user(s). For the real-time experience the CONTA-SUPERVISON IoT portal is a must.

Conta-Supervision

CONTA-SUPERVISION

The CONTA-SUPERVISION portal is available in web browser and App version. The Apps can be downloaded in the Google play or Apple store. The CONTA-SUPERVISION IoT portal synchronises via the cloud. Therefore the devices where CONTA-SUPERVISION IoT portal will be used require a data connection. This is also required for the GSM-PRO2 I/O communication module. Synchronisation can be set real-time or within a certain period of time. Realtime experience could be important when analogue inputs are in use for example for liquid levels, weight or temperature measurements. Either way the CONTA-SUPERVISION will synchronise each time when the upper or lower threshold level is exceed. The same is for digital inputs when flank changes from rise and falling levels.

GSM-PRO2 APP

Besides the new CONTA-SUPERVISION App the current GSM-PRO2 App for the moment keeps active. The GSM-PRO2 App only synchronise when threshold values exceed or when you refresh the App manually. If you operate an output at the backend the App sends a SMS to the GSM-PRO2 I/O communication module and via the cloud the GSM-PRO2 will synchronise the GSM-PRO2 App. Therefore the GSM-PRO2 module needs to have a data connection.

Parallel to the CONTA-SUPERVISION IoT Portal/App and GSM-PRO2 App it’s still possible to control the GSM-PRO2 via SMS commands and receive SMS and email to the selected users in chase of changes (digital) or exceeding thresholds (analogue).

GSM-PRO2 app

Per SMS

No need to manage a GSM-PRO2 via the IoT portal or App? No worries, also without the IoT portal and App it’s possible to use the GSM-PRO2 I/O communication module. Chose a logic SMS command for yourself to control an output to switch on or off with these commands. The module is able to respond with SMS (or email) to inform the user that the action is accomplished. Outputs can be set in a way that only selected users are allowed to control. To prevent abuse.

Per SMS

Useful applications for every solution!

Storingsmelding

Warning message

If a machine goes in malfunctioning, then a message can be send to the maintenance engineer or team to minimize down time. The GSM-PRO2 is able to send a SMS or email or for additional attention it can do phone call to selected user(s). The GSM-PRO2 doesn’t generate any cost,  because the connection will be broken before the receiver will pick up the phone. The module has the option per input to start a message cycles and this will not stop bevor someone responds with the right “stop” command or the maximum cycles are achieved.

In case that maintenance engineer needs to decide to switch off the machine, then this is possible with the GSM-PRO2 output for non-critical processes.

SIGNALING | MONITORING

Irrigation installation are often in service at the end of the day or during the night. By integrating the GSM-PRO2 into the electrical installation it’s possible to detect when the sprinkler is finished. As soon as the job is done the GSM-PRO2 can send a SMS, email or make a phone call to acknowledge the farmer that it’s finished. This way the famer can enjoy maximum sleep. During day time the farmer can prepare the irrigation installation and in the evening he can easily switchs on the complete installation. This is time saving.

Signalering | Bewaking
Schakelkast

Switchgear cabinet

In a switchgear a variety of signal are coming together. Current and voltage controlled signals, analogue and digital signals. One signal  more important than the other. If an GSM-PRO2 I/O communication module as insufficient in- and or outputs then it can be flexibly extended with extensions. These signal can be connected to the GSM-PRO2 I/O communication module and transfers these into messages when threshold values are exceeded or when raising or failing flank changes. When a faulty reading is detected or the operate switch of the machine with emergency button, then the GSM-PRO2 is able to send a message to the maintenance engineer to minimize down times.
