BlueSentry AD is a complete wireless enabled data acquisition and output control unit powered by any 5-25V DC source.

BlueSentry AD is a complete wireless enabled data acquisition and output control unit powered by any 5-25V DC source BlueSentry can acquire up to eight 0-5V inputs at high (16bit) resolution and send this information to Bluetooth-enabled clients, LANs or anywhere on the Internet

The device can also be wirelessly linked to a paired output module, BlueSentry-DA, to replicate four analogue channels at a distance up to 100m.

Typical applications for the device include process control monitoring, motion detection, temperature/humidity sensing, stress and strain gauges, fluid and gas metering, and scores of other applications where physical cabling is not possible or desirable.

"We have a wireless application where we are using the BlueSentry sensor adapter to record pressure and supply an excitation voltage to our pressure transducer", said Shabbir Ezzi, a software and project engineer at Koehler Instruments.

"We have a battery power source, so the "sleep" feature allows us to monitor for a longer period of time without replacing batteries.
