Introduction
Project Introduction

Moxa's W406-CE computers helped a company in Asia quickly build an all-in-one solution for a SCADA monitoring solution that includes wireless communications (GSM/GPRS/EDGE), I/O connections, data computing, and protocol conversion.


System Requirements

? Reliable wireless communications with GSM/GPRS/EDGE support
? Digital input and output channel support
? Easy-to-use platform for system development and integration with the existing DNP 3.0 protocol


Moxa Solution

The customer's existing solution combined I/O servers and industrial computers to monitor devices remotely. However, for scenarios with less demanding I/O requirements, Moxa's W406-CE computers can be deployed for a quick all-in-one solution that includes a wireless communications (GSM/GPRS/EDGE) module, digital input/output channels, data computing, and protocol conversion.

W406-CE computers have a GSM/GPRS/EDGE wireless module built-in and offer reliable data communication over a wireless network. The four digital input and four digital output channels provide a cost-effective I/O solution that fit the requirements of locations with less demanding I/O requirements.

The W406-CE runs on the familiar Windows CE 6.0 platform, which made it easy to integrate the DNP 3.0 protocol with the system. The complete W406-CE package was a convenient, single-device solution that works with less effort and at a lower cost.
