COMPONENTS AND COMMUNICATION

Cloud-based server and Wireless Nodes

The system consists of a proprietary base station and 1 to 500 wireless node switches. Users can dramatically reduce their electrical consumption and costs by precisely controlling the on/off timers of individual devices or groups of devices without rewiring the electrical circuits. Each wireless node can be configured with up to four channels of control and monitoring. This gives each base station the ability to control up to 2000 individual control points. With 120-480 VAC power to each node, net- LiNKTM can take control of the electrical system without running any new circuits.

The netLiNK base station sends and receives commands via a secure cellular connection between the cloud-based server and wireless nodes. The commands are distributed wirelessly to the node switches throughout the property and a secure 900 MHz mesh network. netLiNK monitors the electrical current of the connected devices and sends an alert when a specific device's current goes into an "abnormal" range. Using proprietary algorithms, netLiNK is able to accurately determine whether a lamp or ballast has failed and it notifies the appropriate parties of the alert. That decreases downtime and gives critical information about the devices immediately, or on a scheduled basis, to managers and owners.
