Your workflow just got easier
At METER, we think you should spend less time installing
and troubleshooting, and more time on your research. That's why we
invented a tiny powerhouse called the ZSC.
Readings on your smartphone-yes, you heard right
During sensor installations, the ZSC lets you monitor a
sensor reading as it is installed. Get real-time, wireless readings
via Bluetooth on your smartphone with the push of a single button.
Readout values are displayed in ZENTRA Utility Mobile to help you
detect installation problems (poor sensor-to-soil contact, air
pockets, rocks etc.) before you
repack the hole or trench. The ZSC is often used to spot-check soil
moisture, but it can also instantaneously read any other
environmental sensor and it's powered by only two AA
alkaline batteries.
SDI-12 headaches-solved
SDI-12 sensor networks using a common data line are like
Christmas tree lights. One shorted sensor interferes with
communications over the entire network. It's imperative to find
that sensor and get it off the data line. With the ZSC, there's no
more unplugging every sensor, hoping the network will fire up. Use
it to find out exactly where problem sensors are. Plus the ZSC
allows the user to assign SDI-12 addresses to digital
sensors for easier SDI-12 programming.
Less wasted time-more of what you love
If you're planning a sensor network, plan on using the
economical ZSC. It's just one more way the
ZENTRA system saves you an incredible amount
of time, hassle and expense before, during and after installation.
You'll find this tiny tool indispensable when it comes to keeping
your network running and getting you the data you need.
Features
