Wireless Connectivity Where You Need It
The Wzzard™ intelligent wireless sensor platform creates a complete, quick
and easy connectivity stack between your sensors and application – on your
network or the Internet. The platform uses Wzzard mesh sensor edge nodes
and a wireless 802.15.4e SmartMesh IP network to transmit sensor data to
a SmartSwarm Gateway. The gateway can connect to the Internet via wired
connections or cellular data networks and communicate with application
platforms using the MQTT IoT protocol and JSON data formats.
Wzzard mesh wireless sensor nodes can accommodate virtually any
industry-standard external sensors. Connections can be made via M12
connector or conduit fitting. The nodes provide a wide variety of sensor
interface options, including general purpose analog input, digital input/output
and thermocouple. All nodes contain an internal temperature sensor.
Secure, Reliable and Highly Scalable Wireless Networking
The 802.15.4e Wzzard platform uses mesh networking and timesynchronized channel hopping to provide up to 99.999% connectivity, even
in the most demanding RF environments. New nodes may be added at any
time and the SmartMesh IP network will dynamically self-configure as new
nodes are added or removed.
Easy Configuration and Installation
Configuration of the Wzzard sensor platform is easy via the SmartSwarm
Gateway. Nodes can be configured with scaling information, eng. units,
friendly names, geo-location and other descriptive information.
The platform simplifies physical installation, too. Nodes can be attached to
any surface via mounting ear flanges and screws or the embedded magnetic
base. Magnetic mount is convenient for RF link location determination or
other purposes. (Permanent use of the magnetic mount is not approved for
UL installations.) The IP67 rated, fiber reinforced polyester PBT housing
makes the units deployable in any industrial or commercial environment.
Intelligence at the Network Edge
The Wzzard wireless platform places intelligence at the network edge. The
Wzzard mesh wireless sensor nodes can be configured to communicate data
only when specified threshold or alert levels are exceeded. When reporting,
they can associate useful information like geo-location, device name and
uptime. This eliminates unnecessary network traffic, eases the processing
burden on upstream resources and cuts the cost of cellular data plans when
the gateway is using the cellular data network. Thanks to low-power wireless
technology and programmable time synchronization, the Wzzard mesh
wireless sensor nodes can operate for many years on battery power.
