4.3. SD-2xOut 4.4. SD-WLD 4.5. SD-4-20mA TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS FOR ALL MODELS MECHANICAL DIMENSIONS ANOTHER PORTAL COMPATIBLE DEVICES BY HW GROUP CHYBA! ZÁLOŽKA NENÍ DEFINOVÁNA. 1.1.1. IoT Monitoring products All SD-xxx devices are IoT Monitoring devices which means they have to be connected to a SensDesk Technology portal.
2. SD-xxx devices product family The SD-xxx Devices is a family of simple easy-to-install remote monitoring products with LAN / WiFi connectivity. All products feature a robust design and seamless integration with portal based SensDesk Technology. 2.1. SD-xxx devices product overview 2.1.1.
2.2. Shared features of the SD-xxx product family Robust metal design, 70×68×34mm d/w/h (without antenna) ▪ Ethernet or WiFi - 802.11 b/g/n (2.4GHz) ▪ Support for simultaneous Ethernet and WiFi operation (for easy setup) ▪ External antenna, SMA connector ▪ Plug&Play –...

2.3.4. Hysteresis/Idle range (sensor value) The Hysteresis setting defines a tolerance range for suppressing alarm alerts. The function prevents multiple alarm alerts (too many emails or SMS from the portal) if the reading oscillates around specified threshold. Hysteresis configured independently for each sensor. The figure demonstrates two cases.

2.3.6. Alarm Delay You can set up a Delay value for each sensor. This means that if the measured value steps out of the sensors defined Safe Range and a Delay is set up, the device (and the user) won’t be notified of the sensors Alarm State until the Delay period ends. This can be useful for example if you have an open door with a Door contact sensor and don’t want to raise an alarm each time someone opens it, but only after it is left open for 3 minutes.
3. Setting up the device 3.1. Connecting the cables Attach the external antenna Connect the device to the Ethernet (with a patch cable to a switch, or a cross- over cable to a PC) Plug the power adapter into a power outlet and connect it to the power connector.

3.2.2. Configure the network parameters Click a MAC address (or double-click somewhere in the row) to open a basic device configuration dialog: • Enable DHCP (this will have the rest of the seetings get configured automatically by your router) • IP address / HTTP port (80 by default) •...
3.3. WWW interface All SD devices have the same graphical WWW interface. They only differ in the logo and the I/O information. 3.3.1. Home General Info • Device Name – identify individual devices in larger installations and on a portal. If needed, device network name can be changed with HWg-Config utility (under device details settings).

3.3.2. 4–20mA Available only in product SD-4-20mA. 4-20mA Settings • Power enable – enables power to the current loop of external sensor (4-20mA). Disabled = 0-20mA Analog Input = no power for external probe. • Internal Value – shows the raw readout from the sensor •...
Page 12
For example a temperature sensor measures from 0° C to 100° C – the minimal internal value of a 4-20 mA sensor is 4 mA and the maximum is 20 mA. For this example, you would put 4 in the FROM column and 0 in the TO column (and °C in the Unit row above). In the next row, you would put 20 in the FROM column and 100 in the TO column.

• HTTP Port – port where the built-in WWW server listens (default 80) • Username / Password – user name and password for securing access to device • Inputs (SD–2xIn only) – Reset Counters – resets the counter value to 0 3.3.4.

3.4. Connecting SD devices to SensDesk.com portal 1. Connect the device to the network and configure the network parameters (see Setting up). 2. Open the device WWW interface 3. At the Portal tab, check the Portal box and click Save 4.
This Team (name) and Team password can be manually entered in the portal settings in the web interface of the device in order to avoid the need to register and sign in: 3.5. Device Migration to another portal When the device is visible in a portal, it can be migrated to another user account on another portal (SensDesk Technology based).
Page 23
Look up your Team login and Team password. You can find them under your user profile on the My team page. Click on Migrate device to another SensDesk technology based portal Fill in the Team login and Team password (of target portal), choose the right SensDesk Technology based portal.
