Whats new in TECHBASE

The last couple of weeks have been hard work for us at Techbase. As such, it seems only proper to present some of our work to the outside world. One of the new developments is a firmware update for NPE X1000, which will be avaliable to the public from the 15th of November, this update will include the added option for enabling/disabling autostart for GPRS connections on X1000 units.

Let us also give you a sneak peak into what will be released at the beginning of December:

Support for Wi-Fi communication on X1000
Signaling of X1000 work status via LED’s
Fixing hotplug for ethernet#2 on X1000

Conducting a firmware update is very straightforward on our devices and whole process is reduced just to one, simple command:

softmgr -b x1000beta update firmware

Since last week, unisms software packages have been made available to our users. It allows the sending of SMS messages with special symbols that are specific for certain languages such as Polish “ą”

Furthermore, we are working on the support of a new 3G modem on the X1000, libnpe to include a watchdog application, which will allow the device to automatically restart if it hangs/freezes and improved drivers for RS-485 on X1000 to increase speed of that interface.

If you do not know NPE X1000 and its capabilities, the time has come! Click here.

Or alternatively you are welcome to contact one of our sales consultants today for advise on which system will be ideal for your needs.

Group Entry in the iMod Platform

All you need to do is set an initial entry and register values. The iMod platform provides you with a faster data recording performance and reduces transmission load – it’s simple 🙂

Get familiar with iMod 3G/GPS.

One of the key features of the iMod platform are stability and security.

All iMod tasks are queued. Even if there is a power cut, the queued tasks are stored and executed.

The iMod platform offers a solution which simplifies sharing historical data via Modbus protocol. You just need to define the ARCHIVIST channel, set its size and register values. Every time you can find any historical value, referring to selected parameters.

With iMod sharing historical data via Modbus protocol is simple.

Get familiar with iMod product card

The iMod platform can register data on the device and external database servers at the same time. It allows for:

increased security (several storage spaces)
unlimited storage space (you can scale storage to your needs)
faster database information retrieval
easier data integration with websites (presentation of current and historical data).

Soon the iMod platform will support international characters. Our Clients will receive short messages with operation parameters of an installation in any language, e.g. Chinese or Persian – with iMod you can customize installation management wherever you are.
