Ares 12 is a GSM remote environment monitoring unit with back-up power. Ares 12 can be used wherever there is GSM coverage. Ares can be used to connect several different sensors, digital inputs and a module with digital relay outputs. Ares 12 includes a battery providing several hours of backup power. Alerts to power failures by email or SMS (up to 5 phone numbers). Ares can be connected to the SensDesk.com online portal.
HWg-Ares12 is a GSM remote monitoring and alarming unit with an internal battery. External sensors are powered from the internal battery back-up, too, so that the environmental monitoring works even during power outages. Connect up to 14 external sensors (temperature, humidity, 4-20mA, light intensity, ...), a relay output module and 2 dry-contact detectors.
When a power outage occurs, up to 5 recipients can be notified by e-mail, SMS (text message), or by dialing preconfigured phone numbers. HWg-Ares 12 can be used as a simple GSM alarm thermometer. Status can be checked via SMS.
The new 2017 model of Ares 12 adds the option to connect a relay output module and the possibility to monitor connected sensors with the SensDesk online portal (service provided free of charge by the manufacturer). The web portal can be used to plot the values, configure the Ares unit remotely, or control its relay outputs. Graphs of values can be also displayed in HWg-PDMS (free software) which retrieves the values by e-mail.
Ares products are ready for large remote installations (hundreds of units). At the same time, it is easy to start with a single HWg-Ares 12 unit and watch the graphs in the SensDesk portal, in the HWg-PDMS software for Windows, or export them via XML to MS Excel.
