The challenge of remote data logging
The challenge with collecting data has always been that the things we need to monitor are not always where we live. Quite often they are remote to where we live. Some of the things we need to monitor are at our place of work and we are not there 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Collecting and retrieving data from remote locations wherever we happen to be in the world at a time when the data is urgently needed has always posed a challenge and for many years was simply not possible.
Data Acquisition Networks Pty Ltd (DAN) and the products it supplies were born out of an acute understanding of people’s needs for real-time, accurate information that is delivered to wherever they may happen to be. Monitoring units supplied by DAN have many existing and potential applications. DAN units collect data and transmit it routinely to a secure website where it can be accessed by customers from anywhere in the world at any time of the day or night. Instantaneous data can also be delivered to a mobile phone within seconds of an enquiry being made. Alarms are sent by DAN units when ‘things go wrong’ and DAN units are also able to take limited corrective local action where that is appropriate.
