The user simply accesses the Rilheva web site, inputs a password and views the remote site's data in real time.
Benefiting from Rilheva are operators who need to read, transmit, process and manage, in real time, physical data from remote and fragmented sites even across a large territory.
Using Rilheva, organisations can optimise their resources, dramatically reducing costs that are normally associated with unnecessary on-site intervention.
The list of potential users and applications for Rilheva is vast, encompassing manufacturers, road traffic management, vending machine operators, oil and gas industries, electricity and water boards, production lines, energy production plants, and indeed anyone who needs to remotely monitor a process.
The use of GPRS provides a continuous, real time link that is a low cost form of transmission, thus reducing infrastructure costs.
Rilheva's ability to connect to a CPU/computer via the internet makes for easy connection from different locations.
The system's unique software allows simultaneous monitoring of all installed devices and provides the ability to share data with multiple users.
A large choice of statistics, graphs, forecasts, and alarms are available within the supplied software.
Showing versatility, Vemer's Rilheva from Switchtec has various interfaces including digital and analogue inputs, relay outputs, RS232, RS485, and I2C BUS port connections.
As an M2M solution, Rilheva offers integrated hardware, software and services, enabling the transmission of monitored data and remote control.
