Mediante el uso de los modems celulares de telefonía móvil externos de Campbell Scientific, los integradores de sistemas, OEMs y usuarios finales, pueden evitar costosas visitas de mantenimiento a equipos remotos en todo el mundo.
Los modems de la serie CELL200 son dispositivos celulares 4G LTE que proporcionan conectividad con las redes de telefonía móvil, vía serie RS232 o por el puerto CS I/O (datalogger Campbell). La red y el operador utilizados por la serie CELL200 vienen determinados por el modelo utilizado y la tarjeta SIM insertada en el dispositivo.
El CELL215 tiene un consumo de energía muy bajo en comparación con otros módems de telefonía móvil: 14 mA en reposo, 39 mA cuando está activo y 300 µA en modo de bajo consumo.
Cuando se combinan con los servicios de datos de Campbell Scientific, estos dispositivos están listos para su uso nada más sacarlos de la caja. No hay necesidad de trabajar con los operadores de telefonía móvil para el aprovisionamiento y tener que experimentar las molestias que ocasiona.
El CELL215 forma parte del rango de modems de la serie CELL200 que incluye:
Nota: el CELL215 no incluye tarjeta SIM.
Leer másThe CELL215 is an industrial 4G LTE cellular module. It requires at least one micro-SIM 3FF card (for six position/contacts interface) supplied by your cellular carrier and a suitable 12 or 24 Vdc nominal power source. The CELL215 has an RS-232 serial port and a CS I/O port that can be used for serial server, serial client, and PPP host services. These ports are commonly connected to a data logger RS-232 serial or CS I/O port. The CELL215 has two antenna connectors to be used for primary and diversity antennas, although the unit can operate with only the primary cellular antenna connected.
The CELL215 provides Internet connectivity to any Campbell Scientific data logger located within range of a compatible cellular network. Armed with Internet connectivity, a data logger can remotely connect to Campbell Scientific software on a PC, mobile device, and the cloud. The CELL215 can also enable many data loggers to communicate using other Internet protocols, such as Modbus, DNP3, email, and web (HTTP).
The CELL215 provides highly reliable connectivity and remote device management independent of the device it is connected to. The numerous embedded services include IP serial server and client.
Campbell Scientific offers low-cost cellular data service plans for the CELL215. Our data service plans include Verizon in the United States and AT&T in North America (US, Mexico, Canada), as well as international access to over 600 carriers in 185 countries. The Konect routing service is included to assure a secure connection with Campbell Scientific data logger support software.
The CELL215 is configured using a web-based configuration tool hosted by the cellular module. It can be accessed using Internet Explorer or Firefox remotely over the cellular WAN (when in serial server mode) or via USB.
The CELL215 can also be configured directly from the data logger when used in PPP mode (default mode) using the Device Configuration Utility or CRBasic instructions.
Data loggers can be connected in a variety of ways to suit the needs of the application. Common methods include the use of serial or CS I/O cables.
Compared to many other industrial cellular modules, the CELL215 has extremely low power consumption. The average current consumption at 12 Vdc is approximately 14 mA when idle, depending on its configuration. Additionally, the CELL215 can be turned on and off easily using a data logger SW12V port or the IPNetPower() instruction (PPP mode for the CR1000X, CR300, and CR6 only). When using the SW12V terminal, the modem can typically be powered with a BP12 battery, a CH150 charging regulator, and an SP10 solar panel.
Campbell Scientific offers three antennas for the CELL215. Our 4G/3G/2G 0 dBd cellular dipole whip antenna (pn 32256) connects directly to the CELL215 (no cable required) and can transmit short distances. Our higher gain omnidirectional (pn 18285) and Yagi (pn 31128) antennas require a cable to connect them to the CELL215. The COAXSMA-L cable connects the antennas directly to the CELL215 cellular antenna connector. The COAXNTN-L cable and a surge protector (pn 31317) are used when the CELL215 is susceptible to lightning or electrostatic buildup or for long cable runs.

To update the CELL200 series operating system:
The update process can take 2 to 4 minutes.
Why Update? This OS resolves network registrations issues. Updated CELL205 to manage AT&T's shut down of its 3G network.
Three example programs as described in the CELL200-Series manual. The Power program shows how to control power to the CELL200 series by using the CRBasic
IPNetPower() instruction. The SetSettings example shows how to set up the cellular module using the SetSetting() instruction. It also illustrates how to retrieve status information from the module in the CRBasic program. The Settings example demonstrates using terminal commands.
