Building a Perfect Industrial Telemetry System- Seven Key Features of All-in-One GPRS Data Acquisition Solutions

From Moxa Inc.

Telemetric Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems promise tremendous efficiency and reliability advantages for remote industrial operations, but their implementation can seem a daunting challenge. Telemetry and wireless technologies have made monitoring systems possible in applications that were previously too remote or distributed for conventional cabling. However, in building or expanding a wireless system, system integrators must confront new and possibly unfamiliar technologies and challenges. This white paper will examine common obstacles in developing wireless SCADA systems and explain the seven key features of successful, cost-effective, and reliable GPRS data acquisition solutions.

Products & Services
I/O Modules and Instruments
Data acquisition I/O devices have both input and output functionality. Digital or discrete I/O modules include on-off signals used in communication, user interface, or control.
Data Acquisition
Data acquisition is the digitizing and processing of multiple sensor or signal inputs for the purpose of monitoring, analyzing and/or controlling systems and processes. Signal conditioning includes the amplification, filtering, converting, and other processes required to make sensor output suitable for rereading by computer boards.
Data Input Modules
Data input modules accept sensor and other signal output for data acquisition systems. They may include signal conditioning prior to the analog-to-digital conversion stage.
Data Output Modules
Data output modules or cards transfer amplified, conditioned, or digitized signals.
