AEH-100, an analog expansion hub from BinMaster, has been designed to ease the setup of a sensor network. It offers an easy solution by connecting analog sensors to a BinCloud gateway which provides access to software via the Cloud.
The AEH-100 can ideally be used to upgrade a prevailing sensor system to a Cloud-based network. It enables scalability when linking analog devices to one BinCloud® gateway. This supports hundreds of hubs linked to a single client or gateway. The AEH-100 is used to accept analog inputs from sensors that can be read by a client through TCP or RS-485.
Applications
- Inventory can be monitored using BinView® software
- An existing system can be upgraded to the Cloud
- Up to 16 analog sensors can be connected to BinCloud® through the BinCloud® gateway
- The AEH-100 can be daisy-chained to the BinCloud® gateway through RS-485
- Costs can be controlled by eliminating hardware and subscription costs
