Description
The
Picogate,
G200
, is a compact cellular gateway targeted at low cost data collection applications. This device
was designed to take advantage of the latest trends in wireless technology to achieve an easily deployed, low
power sensor network.
The
Piconode,
SN400
work endpoint capable of supporting both
sensing and control functions. The Piconode is designed to interface with several types of digital sensor devices, as
well as analog sensor devices. This allows for maximum flexibility with sensor selection.
The hardware is deployed in a “star network” configuration as shown in the diagram below.

G200 Cellular Gateway Information
The G200 cellular gateway provides two local wireless data networks to allow sensor data to flow from sensors, to a web-
based server database. The web server database is where sensor data is stored for later retrieval and analysis by the web
portal.
Wireless data network 1, is based on ISM band 915 MHz wireless technology. This network type is very
low power, while still providing good range and robustness. This wireless network is used by the sensor
node and gateway to transfer sensor data information.
Wireless data network 2, is based on cellular LTE data service. This network has higher performance, and
internet connectivity. The gateway forwards sensor data received from the sensor nodes using an LTE link
to an internet database.
All antennas on the G200 are located internally to the enclosure. This provides protection from damage and provides for a
more robust installation in exposed or mobile applications. In order to use the internal GPS function, direct visibility to the
sky (GPS satellites) is likely required. Usually, location near a window is sufficient for GPS operation.
The G200 includes a Bluetooth Low Energy Interface (2.4GHz). This interface can be used to access the G200’s diagnostic,
status and configuration data.
The G200 can be provisioned with an RS232 port. This will require an optional cable assembly and PCB variant, available
from the factory.
