The ADS-260 is a battery-powered Sigfox end node for collecting and transmitting data from analog and SDI-12 or Modbus serial sensors. It offers 1 input which can be configured for 0-1 volt analog, digital or counter signals plus up to 8 SDI-12 or Modbus channels plus sensor excitation. The ADS-260 wireless sensor platform provides a smart end node that sends data via the Sigfox Network. It offers reliable communication and outdoor enclosures to satisfy a variety of needs in agriculture, environmental and weather monitoring, oil/gas and industrial applications. Sigfox, which uses Ultra Narrow Band (UNB) radio technology operating in the license-free ISM radio bands, has the advantage of covering larger areas than other fixed local systems.
ADS-260 is compliant to the SDI-12 Standard Version 1.2 and supports extended commands for sensor configuration, in terminal mode. ADS-260 can collect data from several SDI-12 sensors for a total amount of 8 measurement channels. ADS-260 supports acquisition from sensors with RS-485 interface, using the popular MODBUS protocol (RTU & ASCII). Up to 8 measurement channels from several sensors are supported. The unit provides multiple excitation options for measuring transducers.
