Layer N Smart Interface Introduction
The Layer N IF-006 Wireless Universal Smart Interface is designed to be used in conjunction with Layer N Smart Probes. The
two elements snap together with a twist of an M12 connector to create a universal solution for any sensor application.
Sensor installations can be further customized using M12 modular extension cables to quickly tailor solutions for any
application. A wide variety of Layer N Smart Probes are available to create a customized wireless solution that fits your
application. Including temperature, humidity, pressure, light, thermocouple, RTD, process, count, pulse, load cell, heat flux,
and more.
The IF-006 is easily paired to the Layer N Gateway with the press of a button and will automatically show up on your Layer N
Cloud account. Local data logging keeps your data secure in the event of a power or network outage. Reports, History, and
E-mail alerts from the Layer N Cloud keep you informed on the status of all your vital processes.
Layer N Smart Probes are fully configurable using your IF-006 unit and our free SYNC configuration software. An integrated
Command Line Interface allows for quick serial configuration of your IF-006 using any standard terminal emulator.
Layer N wireless products are designed with robust AES256 encryption and advanced PKA-EC521bit (NIST) elliptic-curve
cryptography to protect your data. Password protection ensures that access to device data is restricted and only accessible
by authorized users. Device Authentication ensures that Layer N Smart Probes connect to validated Omega devices.
