Index >> Products >> Poseidon family
Poseidon 1250 is a device capable of sending e-mail when the sensor’s temperature goes out of safe range or when the contact of a connected relay closes. Besides e-mail and WWW graphical interface, also several M2M protocols are supported (SNMP, XML, Modbus/TCP etc.)
Sensors can be connected to the Poseidon model 1250 unit via two busses or you connect directly senor's contacts. The device measures values of connected sensors, the user can access the data over specialized protocols or web browser.
Poseidon can be integrated into NMS (Network Monitoring System), or used with the PD trigger software which simply alerts of a critical situation by sending an SMS message. As an alarm response, this software can close a relay (via network) that controls e.g. light signaling or alarm horn.
- Industrial bus (RS485): up to 31 sensors, up to 1 000m
- 3 Digital inputs: connect relay dry contact directly
- IT bus (1-Wire): up to 10 low cost probes, RJ11 wiring
- Sensor value out of range: sending Email or SNMP Trap to several recipients.

What Poseidon measures
The Poseidon model 1250 supports up to 42 sensors (probes) for temperature, humidity, air-flow and other value monitoring. Each sensor monitors safe range. It can notify of value out of safe range (Alarm status) via Email or SNMP trap sending.
- Temperature (up to 42 sensors up to 1000 meters, -55 °C to
+640 °C)
- Humidity (up to 25 sensors up to 1000 meters)
- Binary input / contact (up to 3 smoke detectors, shake, movement,
flooding, angle, close/open door, air-flow etc.)
- General input (0 to 10V, 4 to 20mA – using external converters to RS-485)

Basic Features of the Poseidon 1250
Up to 42 sensors and probes can be connected to one Poseidon model 1250 unit
- Notification about an Alarm status via Email sending, SMTP interface or SNMP Trap
- PD trigger program (free) can redirect alarms to SMS (GSM modem)
- Easy configuration in graphic interface (WWW web browser) –screen shot
- Open communication protocols (SNMP, XML, Modbus/TCP a others)
- Poseidon 1250 directly controls two relays
- Large assortment of sensors, from inexpensive for home use to industrial ones with accuracy 0,15 °C and range from -55 to +640 °C. (see Sensors values). The sensors can be connected over a distance of 1000 meters
- Safety protected with a password, IP address range, HW security
For OEM partners option to change device name, design of web pages for orders of 50 pcs and more.
- FirmWare update over WWW or over RS-232

Topology

- WEB (HTML)
Values and state of sensors are presented on WWW page. The page is automatically reloaded every 5 second. There is a link to Flash Setup from main HTML page, update FirmWare and others.
- XML
All sensor's values as well as alarm status information are available in XML files (temper.xml) and any application can log it from XML tags - more information
- SNMP
SNMP is protocol for monitoring of telecommunication devices, network infrastructure and related technology. The Poseidon is fully controllable over SNMP (v1, partially v2) - more information
- Modbus/TCP
Modbus/TCP is industrial standard for input from sensors and output to visualizing and SCADA systems. All values are available over Modbus/TCP - more information
- Alarms
- SNMP Traps
In case of contact switch or exceeding of "Safe Range", the sensor get to the Alarm status. To notify of this a SNMP Trap including alarm status description is sent to configured IP address - more information
- Email
In case of contact switch or exceeding of "Safe Range", the sensor get to the Alarm status. To notify of this a Email including alarm status description is sent to configured email address - more information

HW interface - sensor connecting
Overview of all sensors in our assortment: Sensors and accessories.
- Binary Input (Dry Contact inputs)
3x input to connect door contact or relay output (NO or NC)
- IT Bus (RJ12 1-Wire)
Inexpensive interface to connect up to 10 temperature probes over a total distance of 10 meters or less
- Industrial bus (RS-485)
Industrial interface, up to 31 sensors up to 1 000 meters. The temperature, humidity and other sensors. The converters to current loop (4 to 20 mA) or platinum temperature sensors Pt100, Pt500, Pt1000 (2,3 or 4 conductor).
>> Interface for connecting sensors to the Poseidon units
HW interface - relay output
- 2x relay output
The Poseidon 1250 supports two outputs for two external relay controlling. The outputs can be controlled over network (Flash Setup, XML, SNMP).
- Output – Alarm status link: DTR output can be used for alarm signalization of any sensor. Warn light or horn can separately, independently on other software, signal critical status.
We recommend to use: PowerEgg, P1250 RC (Relay Cable), DIN relay
