Argon 100
Hardware User Manual
Rev 1.2
Introduction
The Argon alert and monitoring solution allows the user to pre-set a temperature
range and receive an alert (via SMS, phone call, email or server script) if the
current temperature exceeds the pre-set range. It is also possible to read the
current temperature.
An email/http log is also supported. Temperature logs can be recorded at
predetermined intervals and sent to a valid email address when required.
The Argon software can be controlled in two ways:
1. Via the use of SMS command messages. These are standard text messages
sent from a mobile phone which are formatted in a specific way to configure
the software (i.e. change GPRS settings)
2.
Via a Windows compatible based configuration tool (USB to serial driver and
Microsoft .NET framework required – ensure Windows has latest service pack
installed on your computer).
The Argon software is designed to operate only with Sensormetrix temperature
1-wire sensor(s) in conjunction with Serial RS232 Proton-1 Temperature adapter.
(Included in Argon kit).
