Connecting your field devices to the cloud has never been easier with the FGS2402, an industrial-grade loT GSM-GPRS gateway. This device simplifies data connectivity and alert notifications via GPRS and SMS, using the Modbus protocol over RS-485.
Configured via PC software, the FGS2402 can send SMS alerts and transfer data directly to the cloud. Data from each station is uploaded to an internet server, where it is stored in an SQL database. This server is maintained by professional service providers with multiple backups and an uptime of around 99%.
The data, protected by password access, can be viewed from anywhere in the world. With the prevalence of smartphones and tablets, online access to process plant data is increasingly valuable.
Internet connectivity is provided through a GPRS SIM card with a data plan. If Wifi is available, FGS2402-wifi version can be ordered optionally. A pre-loaded website facilitates immediate data logging with minimal hassle, and a new website with pre-loaded software is also available if needed.
For cases where only alerts are required, the FGS2402 can be configured to send SMS alerts to up to 10 programmable mobile numbers at specified intervals, without cloud connectivity.
