We can provide complete solutions allowing systems to be controlled and monitored from your cell phone, within your local network, or over the internet. Our systems can be integrated with existing legacy systems – we can build customized hardware and software to interface with just about any system.
Number 8 Systems has a number of pre-built solutions to common control problems. These solutions can be used as-is or customized to meet your specific requirements. Some of our solutions are listed below:
The PumpGuru is an advanced self-learning device which controls and protects water pumps. Information learnt about a particular installation is used to allow the PumpGuru to rapidly detect leaks and other faults. A built in GSM link allows the device to log usage information to the internet, and allows remote control and notification direct to your cell phone. Click here for more information.
The FlowLoggerGSM provides a simple solution for bore owners to comply with updated resource consents requiring electronic logging of bore water use. Flexible I/O configuration allows multiple flow meters, rain gauges, pressure and level transmitters to be connected. Digital outputs allow pumps and other devices to be controlled remotely. Ladder logic control software is available in some models. Devices can be re-programmed over the internet.
The DutyMaster is designed to manage duty cycles across several pumps. The advanced software and flexible I/O allow rapid design of sophisticated pump control systems.
The MB2GSM module links standard industrial MODBUS networks to a GSM connection. Ladder logic control software allows sophisticated mappings between multiple MODBUS devices to be logged to a server on the internet, or produce text messages. Control software can be re-programmed over the internet, so once the device is installed it doesn't need to be touched again. Some models provide I/O allowing direct control of remote devices.
