Advantages of the CoCo Remote Monitoring Solution

Previously, it has been necessary to construct such a remote monitoring solution based on a PC architecture with add-on cards. There are many problems associated with the PC-based solution. It is expensive, personal computers typically are not rugged tend to fail in the outdoor temperature and humidity environment, and such as system consumes too much power. CoCo is an Ethernet based integrated solution, small and lightweight, designed for industrial use, more reliable, and consumes only a fraction of the power of a PC-based instrument.

The keypad and LCD of CoCo also come handy when the operator wants to look at the real-time data on-site. When the instrument is setup and used for on-site test, the user interface of CoCo can provide a great deal of information. When it is set in the remote monitoring mode, LCD will be turned off to save the power and its life.

In summary, the remote monitoring system can be constructed by using following elements:
