FOCUS+ GSM/GPRS Smart Modems
Designed for a rapidly changing gas industry, the Focus+ is a key product of AMR solutions for Itron commercial and industrial (C&I) gas electronic devices. This smart modem provides transparent communication between data collection software tools and devices in the field, using either GSM or GPRS communication networks. Thanks to an intuitive, user-friendly interface, the Focus+ is both easy to install and easy to operate. Focus+ offers gas network monitoring capabilities with up to four digital inputs that can be used for alarm retransmission by SMS. The Focus+ platform is available in two variants: Focus+ and Focus+ ATEX; Focus+ ATEX can be installed directly in hazardous zone 1 areas.
KEY BENEFITS
APPLICATIONS
DESCRIPTION
C&I gas applications
Focus+ family of modems includes Focus+ and Focus+ ATEX that can be used with smart C&I meters (Dattus), volume converter (Corus) or SCV measurer (ANGus).
Focus+ can be main or solar powered, which means that the modem can be active permanently.
FEATURES »» User-friendly interface for simplified commissioning and handling »» Can be installed in hazardous areas (Focus+ ATEX only)) »» Ultimate communications flexibility from quad-band GSM and GPRS technologies (for both dynamic and fixed IP addresses)
Both are GSM/GPRS modem, share a common architecture, common human/ machine interface and most operational features. The main difference between the two models is the installation area.
»» Five year battery life with daily communication (via GPRS)
Focus+ is approved as associated device, thus it must be installed in safe area.
»» External power supply input (Focus+ only)
Focus+ ATEX is approved for installation in hazardous area (zone 1), ideal for reducing installation costs and risks of vandalism.
»» Alarm notifications delivered by SMS »» Compatible with Itron C&I electronic gas devices including Corus, Dattus and Angus
SPECIFICATIONS
»» Greater operational efficiency with remote data collection »» Reduced truck rolls , associated costs and CO2 emissions »» Manage usage and resources with accurate, timely data »» Flexible operation with battery, mains or solar powered »» Proactive operations with meter alarms »» Simplified installation through large GSM/GPRS network coverage
Both Focus+ and Focus+ ATEX are able to use Inbound connection in GPRS modem to predifined IP address in order to overcome private and dynamic IP addresses provided to modem from usual GSM/GPRS Data subcriptions. Focus+ family is able to provide gas network monitoring with their digital inputs and cantransmit their alarms, but also those from Corus volume converter, through SMS to a central system or field technicians cellular phone.
Focus+ ATEX is only battery powered, thus the GSM modem must be activated for a limited period of the day to transmit data and achieve maximal energy efficiency.
