D2O VCP Product Manual - 1
The Zepiro® D
2
O® (Direct-To-Orbit) VCP is a satellite telemetry solution that
takes periodic measurements from devices that can provide an appropriate
voltage, current or pulse signal. It is ideally suited to use in remote or difficult
to access areas and can transmit from virtually any surface location globally.
It is a low-power device designed for endurance, maintenance-free monitoring
applications with the included battery capable of providing power for up to
four years.
Once setup, the D2O VCP efficiently packages the data messages from the
connected device(s), and sends them via a low-earth orbit satellite network
back to a terrestrial ground station. From there Zepiro’s servers securely
recompile the data packets to readable formats and forwards the data to the
end user for analysis.
1.1 THE ZEPIRO D2O VCP
• Integrated satellite transceiver
• Integrated GPS receiver
• Low power micro processor for data acquisition
• Multiple modes of operation to suit a variety of scenarios and devices
• Internal non-rechargeable battery pack (serviceable)
• Single protected M12 8-Pin Interface connector to device
• Separate USB interface to allow for “as installed” commissioning and
validation via Serial Terminal software
• Self-contained in rugged housing to suit harsh environments (Pending IP67
testing)
1.2 KEY FEATURES
The VCP can operate in a range of different modes to suit the application at
hand. These preconfigured modes can be assigned during the setup process
using the Serial Terminal software and Command Line Interface (CLI). This
process is explained further in the Serial Commands section of this Product
Manual.
An overview of the modes of operation are provided below:
1.3 MODES OF OPERATION
MODE DESCRIPTION
Analogue Takes hourly measurements of the selected 10V, 5V or 20mA input
Pulse Takes hourly measurements of the pulse counter input and reports the running pulse counter total every 8 hours
Combined Takes measurements every 2 hours from both the selected analogue 10V, 5V or 20mA input and the pulse counter
input. It also reports the running pulse counter total every 8 hours
Analogue with
Pulse Totals
Takes hourly measurements of the selected 10V, 5V or 20mA input as well as reporting the running pulse counter total
every 8 hours
