Web of Issues (IoT) specialist Particle has opened pre-orders for its Monitor One Developer Version, a customizable gateway designed for maintaining a tally of sensor networks, industrial tools, and extra.
“Not like normal IoT gateways available on the market, Monitor One might be completely custom-made to go well with the distinctive necessities of each industrial monitoring use case,” Particle’s Raniz Bordoloi claims of the brand new board. “Clients can now bypass conventional obstacles to entry and acquire quick visibility into their current machines and property, regardless of the place they’re deployed, with none of the event complications and engineering overheads.”

The Developer Version comes with a base-model Monitor One board pre-mounted in an IP67-rated waterproof housing with a versatile mounting plate and two growth playing cards: the I/O Card, which presents CAN, Modbus, and RS-485 connectivity, 0-10V inputs, and a dry contact relay output; and the Prototype Card, a customized perf board for tinkerers to construct their very own add-on {hardware} for the gateway board.
“Optimized for fast analysis,” Bordoloi says, “the Monitor One Developer Version is designed with simplicity in thoughts to allow our clients to create a working proof-of-concept in a day. It options every part a person would possibly want for his or her prototyping wants, together with two add-ons, growth playing cards for customizing I/Os shortly and simply.”

All Monitor One boards embody a system-on-module with mobile modem — LTE CAT-M1, within the case of the North American variant, with help for AT&T and T-Cell networks and Verizon accessible as an possibility for Particle’s Skilled- and Enterprise-tier clients — World Navigation Satellite tv for pc System (GNSS) receiver, and an on-board microcontroller. The system design and firmware can be found beneath an open-source license, Particle has confirmed, for deeper customization.
The Monitor One Developer Version is now accessible to order for $199 from the Particle Retailer, a claimed $90 low cost over the system’s deliberate retail worth; {hardware} is because of ship in November.
