10 Wireless connectivity of DUMO
The wireless connection operates on the proprietary Sintrol Network communication protocol. The protocol
stack takes care of automatically forming the network and routing data within the network via the strongest
available connection possible.
It is recommended to name each Dumo in a wireless network before the installation. In this way, each device
will be easily identified by the given name when the network is otherwise automatically created. Naming is
quite simple:
1. Run Sintrol DustTool or DustLog 8 PC software on the computer.
2. Connect the Dumo to a PC with USB or RS485.
a. Note, when using the USB, no external power is needed. If you wish to use RS485, please
connect power first.
The Dumo will appear automatically in the software once it's connected.
3. Type the name you wish to use in the parameters tab and then press the save button.
4. Disconnect the device
Networking:
In combination with our network router and the DustLog 8 Software, it is also possible to set up wireless,
RS485 networks, or combinations thereof. The wireless network works within the ISM bandwidth and
therefore has no need for licenses or permits.
A complete Sintrol Network-based measurement system consists of up to 254 instruments on a single network
connected either wirelessly or with an RS485 bus to the data collecting and reporting software, DustLog 8. The
basic principle and topology are shown in the figure above.
Sintrol Wireless solution is part of the whole Sintrol Network system. For this reason, the wireless RF
connection can operate transparently with the RS 485 network.
Figure 21: Sintrol Network Example presents one example of the working Sintrol Network. In this illustration,
both wireless and wired connections are used to illustrate the seamless and extraordinarily flexible operation
between both physical communication methods.
DustLog 8 (Optional):
DustLog 8 is Sintrol's data logging system and reporting tool that gives the user greater access to the
monitoring process than ever before. Reports can be generated to see historical trends in the measurement
with the ability to create monthly, daily, or hourly averages charted on meaningful graphs. Additionally, the
easy user interface gives the user full control of the device's parameters so they can be read, sent, or
configured directly from the control room. After installation of the Dumo, almost all access to the Dumo can
be done remotely using the DustLog 8.
This software is not covered by this manual, please read and follow the respective manual.
