Environmental data logger for weather stations, 32 channels

MeteoData-4000

Environmental data logger for weather stations with 16 SE / 8 DIF analog inputs, up to 32 logic channels, 8/16/32 GB eMMC storage, Ethernet, 2.5G/3G/4G, USB and configurable communications.

Introduction

Reliable environmental data starts with a station that can handle many sensor types, process measurements locally and keep operating outdoors. Designed for weather, hydrological, solar and road monitoring systems, this data logger powers connected sensors, reads their signals and stores instantaneous values or statistics for transmission to a data reception center or local SCADA system.
 
Flexible sensor integration helps one platform cover complex monitoring tasks. The unit supports voltage, current, resistance, pulse and smart digital sensors via RS-232, RS-485, SDI-12, Modbus, NMEA and ASCII, with up to 32 logic channels. Two independent logging periods and up to 32 statistical calculations per period can be configured for each channel.
 
Built-in communications and onboard intelligence reduce field effort. Ethernet, 2.5G/3G/4G modem, USB and a configurable communication port support integration with networks and IoT platforms, while eMMC storage provides more than two years of data in typical configurations.

Features

Analog acquisition

 The logger provides 16 single-ended or 8 differential analog inputs, individually configurable for voltage, current or resistance measurement.

Counter and digital I/O

The interface includes one low-power counter, four additional counters, digital inputs and isolated digital output ports for status, pulse and control functions.

Smart sensor ports

Three serial ports can be configured for SDI-12, RS-232, RS-422 or RS-485 sensors, with multiple sensors sharing the same communication bus.

Data storage

Integrated Flash NAND memory stores data, settings and CPU drive information, with optional microSD backup for redundant log and raw data storage.

Communication protocols

Supported protocols include Proprietary Binary Protocol, Modbus RTU, Modbus RTU over TCP/IP, Modbus TCP, HTTP, FTP, NTCIP and MQTT IoT.

Power management

Inputs support solar panel, power grid and battery sources, with integrated MPPT chargers and managed excitation outputs for sensor power optimization.

Software support

GEO-DataView, GEO-DataLink, Webtrans-4K, SCADA via Modbus RTU / TCP and MQTT IoT compatibility support configuration, access and visualization.
