HW group Ares 10 LTE

A cost-effective LTE thermometer for remote monitoring and alerting for locations without LAN access. Connect up to 3 external sensors and 2 dry contact detectors


Ares 10 LTE is a cost-effective GSM and LTE thermometer for remote monitoring and alerting over GSM for locations without LAN access. Connect up to 3 external sensors and 2 dry contact detectors.

Ares 10 LTE monitors the readings of connected sensors. When a value reaches the alarm threshold, the device sends an e-mail or a text message (SMS), or dials specified numbers. Use the free SensDesk portal to view measured data in a complex dashboard.

Ares 10 LTE products are ready for remote mass deployment using FOTA (Firmware Over The Air).



Applications and usage:

• Electricity distribution networks (transformer stations, lines)
• Water source monitoring, including technical equipment status
• Agricultural premises (greenhouses, granaries, etc.)
• Road, highway, or railroad technology
• Temperature and thermal expansion of structures
• Diesel generators – environment and status monitoring

Ares 10 LTE: features for IoT projects

• Data transfer over the GSM / GPRS mobile network
• Quick view to current data on SensDesk web portal
• Mobile application, desktop apps
• Sending data by e-mail, custom SW or third-party cloud applications
• LTE version in 3Q 2018

Ares 10 LTE units allow connecting to the Internet via an LTE/ GSM/ GPRS network. Data is transmitted via the HWg-Push protocol to the SensDesk public portal or HWg-PDMS software. Data can be emailed to PDMS, and the software downloads it from the POP3 mailbox or its secured POP3S variant.

The SensDesk IoT portal provides a quick view of current values on the mobile phone as well. It can display graphs of measured values up to 3 months back. It also includes the ability to set alarm messages via e-mail or SMS (with own HWg-SMS-GW3 gateway) in a cloud-like web page.

IoT PDMS software allows to collect all measured data and convert it to Excel format. It can then perform its own analysis. Excel reports from PDMS can be used to document environmental values for control bodies, for example, in pharmacies and the food industry.

The Ares 10 LTE is ideal for outdoor or mobile IoT applications because it has wide signal coverage thanks to GSM communications. Switching between BTS (base station - network cell) is up to 180 km / h automatic and without loss of communication.
