Sentinel SiteWatch is an advanced networking device that provides remote access to any Detcon gas detection system via Ethernet or cellular communication. The Ethernet version provides an IP addressed webpage that can be accessed via any web browser and both the Ethernet and cellular versions instantly provide automated emails for all alarm and fault conditions. The Sentinel SiteWatch connects to the Detcon X40, MCX-32 and Site Sentinel SmartWireless controllers through the RS-485 Modbus interface.
The system allows web browser access to real-time data from the gas detection system that includes: detector type, serial number, location/name, gas concentration, gas type and alarm status. In addition, when used with Detcon SmartWireless systems, the data includes battery life and link quality of all devices in the network.
Sentinel SiteWatch allows convenient and efficient access to remote system data by computer (desktop, portable, tablet) and cellular devices (iPhone, Droid, etc.) – virtually any device that has Ethernet, WiFi or cellular access.
Features
• Automated emails on alarm and fault conditions.
• Automated emails for gas detection alarm and fault conditions on both smart and cellular phones.
• Email message includes data file of last ten minutes of detector’s output prior to going into alarm/fault condition and coming out of alarm/fault condition.
• Web page provides sensor gas readings, identifies alarm and fault conditions, and provides remaining battery life and communication link quality for wireless systems.
