HMS Industrial Networks releases Anybus Remotecom

Anybus Remotecom from HMS Industrial Networks remotely controls automation devices.

It has a powerful internal web server for remote access of device data, including logged data and trend graphs.

The integrated alarm and status handler automatically notifies remote supervisors via SMS, e-mail or SNMP if pre-defined events are triggered.

Typical applications include remote management and supervision of factory and process automation devices, power generation equipment and heating and ventilation systems.

An optional secure central web server expands the functionality of Anybus Remotecom.

The central server collects and stores logged data in one central location, making it easier to browse through the data from several devices without needing to establish an individual remote connection for each one.

Anybus Remotecom connects locally to any automation device equipped with a standard serial Modbus-RTU interface or an Ethernet Modbus-TCP interface.

It features RS-232 and RS-485 serial ports.

The remote connection is made through the internet/intranet via the integrated Ethernet interface.

An optional GSM/GPRS network interface can also be used.

The Remotecom can be connected to an external GPS receiver for geo-tracking of mobile equipment.

The device is set up through the built-in web interface, which can be accessed from any standard web browser without additional software licences.

Anybus Remotecom devices are available in a Din-rail mountable IP20-rated plastic housing or in a rugged metal housing.

They have a power input range of 9-28V DC.

Analysing data made available by the Remotecom can minimise downtime, predict maintenance requirements, monitor system performance and reduce the cost of service personnel.
