support and mobile phone Short Message Service (SMS) support.

Basic Features

  • Communication between a light and  the regional monitoring and control centre. Communication over  the LANof a light with up to 21 nodes
  • Regular polling of the LAN nodes (other equipment units of a light ) in every 15 minutes
  • Programmable time scheduling of regular  communication sessions  and immediate sending of the emergency messages to the control centre
  • Responding to the commands and inquiries from  the regional  monitoring and control centre
  • Measurement and recording of  5 analogue input signals in every 15 minutes, the last 256 records are accessible. Checking  of contact sensors (tampering, fire, ect.)  and  sending  of  the emergency messages to the control and monitoring centre
  • Recording of statistical data about the quality, time and  results of last 32 communication sessions
  • Programmable scheduling of mobile phone standby mode in order to save energy


GPS features

  • Reception and periodical recording of the GPS signals with the period  specified by the user.
