Data Destinations 

The default option for data delivery is a 100% online connection to 

Eagle.io

 The Ai1 supports all of the following 

data destinations: 

 

Eagle.io

 

 

LoggerNet call-back

1

 to a hosted LoggerNet system with a fixed IP address 

 

DNP3 or Modbus

2

 call-back to a SCADA or similar control system over the telemetry link 

 

As a Modbus slave or SDI12 sensor over a local serial link 

 

As an FTP client sending data to an FTP server 

 

Email or SMS (on cellular models) data reports and alarms 

 

HTTP web server or using HTTP API call-backs 

 

Local display 

 

Standalone datalogger for manual download

Eagle.io connection 

The Ai1 is optimised for automatic connection to Eagle.io.  At the top of the CRBasic, include the definition of 
DESTINATION as shown below.  The Ai1 will automatically establish the connection to Eagle and use the inbuilt cell 
modem IMEI as the unique identifier.  For reference, the default connection method (renewing Eagle.io connection 
every 15 minutes) results in data usage of approximately 1MB/day.  Higher frequency connection or higher 
frequency data storage may result in higher data transfer.

 A call-back is where the Ai1 initiates a TCP/IP connection to a server on a specific port suitable for the proposed protocol.  The 

server software would then manage the data transfer process

 Supports Modbus ASCII, Modbus RTU and/or Modbus TCP
