Datastream

DataStream – Networked Energy Data Logger

The Synetica DataStream is an Internet connected device for the collection, storage and transmission of data for energy management.

Built in Ethernet provides high speed, real time access to meter data via the internet or corporate IT network with the benefit of no ongoing communication charges. For remote sites, a GSM/GPRS option is also available.

Powered by a high speed ARM® processor the DataStream has the capacity to acquire, process, record, present and stream data from multiple energy meters and environmental sensors.

Energy Metering

The DataStream has pulse inputs, Modbus communications, analogue current transformer (CT) and wireless connectivity providing the ultimate flexibility for monitoring energy consumption. Energy usage is recorded at selectable intervals, typically 1/2 hourly. This data is stored on the DataStream and automatically sent to a central server, such as enVision, a third party Monitoring and Targeting package or a spreadsheet such as Microsoft® Excel® for further analysis.

Data is sent via 3G/4G cellular connection, or via Ethernet to the cloud

Visualise and analyse your data using enVision on desktop or mobile devices
