The new PSI-Data/Fax-Modem/RS232 modem from Phoenix Contact provides worldwide access to machines and installations for remote data capture, remote diagnostics, remote maintenance and program downloads. Thanks to high-grade three-way isolation, this rail-mounting device is suitable for the tough requirements of industrial remote maintenance. It enables dedicated line and dial-up line connections according to the international V.34 standard.
Comprehensive security features include programmable selective call answering, password-protected dial-up and a call-back function to prevent unauthorised access. The configurable warning and fault input is particularly useful for remote installation monitoring. If the input is activated, the modem will select any predefined telephone number and send a stored text-based message as a fax or text message (SMS). There is an integrated automatic sleep function to save battery life, and the device will function over a broad supply voltage range (10 to 60 V). Plug-&-play and user-friendly configuration software ensure simple setup.
