Sentry™ RF Modems

The XBee-PRO RS-232 RF Modem is an IEEE 802.15.4 compliant solution that features an RS-232 or optional USB interface. One of the XBee-Pro RF Modems is installed in the Sentry™ Visibility Sensor main electronics enclosure. It is factory pre-wired for power and RS-232 serial data and fully tested. The 2nd RF Modem is installed at the user’s PC and connects to the PC via a supplied serial RS-232 or USB cable. The modem transfers a standard asynchronous serial data stream between the two devices and is designed for rapid integration into existing data systems. Included is X-CTU software for configuring and testing XBee-PRO radio modems.

The SentryView™ Graphical User Interface, P/N 30025, is a Windows© based software program specially configured for interfacing the Sentry™ Visibility Sensor to the user’s personal computer. SentryView™ polls the sensor, collects, displays, and archives the data on the PC. SentryView™ provides a graphical display interface, report generator, data analysis, & automatic archiving. Data that has been stored in SentryView™ can be downloaded and analyzed using common spreadsheet programs such as Microsoft Excel.
