Current productsNews from the field of electromechanics
Cables, connectors etc. are the backbone of every factory. The "smarter" the latter becomes, the higher the demands on the passive elements for signal and energy transmission. Computer&AUTOMATION has compiled the latest products from the field of electromechanics.
The NHL network monitoring device from Patlite enables the functional monitoring of up to 16 network components per signal tower. Used as a PING device monitor, it checks whether all components of a network are connected to it. To do this, the device initiates PING interactions and warns the administrator with a light/sound signal if a PING response fails. The tower also displays the SNMP TRAP messages generated by routers, printers or switches in the event of a malfunction as a light/sound signal. The signal tower can also be implemented to monitor important background applications. If desired, it can send an e-mail to the network monitor as soon as a certain event occurs in the network system. Depending on the event, the e-mail title and text can be programmed in advance. The tower is controlled using RSH commands in conjunction with standard management software. The user sets up the signal tower via a web browser using its IP address. The associated 'Signal Tower' app enables remote control and acknowledgement of the system status via iPhone.
