Remote Monitoring Station
Paired with your existing cloud or the SignalFire Cloud, the RANGER system is the simplest way to access all of your sensor data from one platform. Whether you’re converting an existing system or building a new system, going wireless with SignalFire means you can go live and start accessing your sensor data almost immediately.
GL500-2-1 Data Logger
The GL500-2-1 can monitor two 4-20 mA sensors and features a scalable digital input that accepts switch closure signals and pulses from various external devices. The logger provides switched power to the sensors based on the programmable sample interval and sensor warm up time settings. Two- and three-wire sensors can be quickly connected to the datalogger’s internal terminal strip and calibrated via the included Global Logger II software.
260-RGAI-70 Rain Gauge Analog Interface
The 260-RGAI-70 Rain Gauge Interface converts the signal from a tipping bucket rain gauge into a 4-20 mA current loop signal, ideal for input to a PLC or SCADA system. Each tip of the rain gauge bucket causes the output signal to increase 1% of full scale. Full scale represents 100 tips of the bucket.
