Mobile Control Centre E742 is a portable work station for the field installation (configuration) and maintenance of the remote monitoring and control systems for lighthouses,
beacons, and buoys built using ekta™ units. Heart of the E742 is our Control and Monitoring Software, whih is installed on a notebook computer equipped with a suitable communication module, typically, a PC-Card GSM modem.
The E742 allows to configure and monitor the equipment units over two different communication networks. Over the cellular telephone network, all subscribers of the cellular or public switched telephone networks are accessible, and over the RS485 based field network it connects to the local area network (LAN) of an outstation (light system), allowing to set up and re-configure the units connected to LAN as necessary.
Features
Operations over the cellular telephone network:
-
authorized data exchange with any outstation (light system)
integrated into the remote monitoring and control system, regardless of their physical location and assignement to a regional centre. This allows:
to monitor the operation of a light system, the status of the control equipment and energy resources;
to perform the remote modification of the parameters of a light (flashing pattern, etc).
-
data exchange with a regional control
centre, e.g. viewing of daily reports
-
establishing temporary regional control
centres for the purposes of system installation and testing
Operations over the RS485-based field network:
-
connecting to the local area network of
an outstation (lighthouse, beacon, or buoy system)
-
installation of the control system and setting up the parameters of equipment units connected to LAN
-
testing the system operation and retrieving the actual status information of the equipment units and energy resources during maintenance sessions
