Industrial Super-Beacon with plastic 16mm ultrasonic transducers protected by special membranes. The beacon passes the IP56 test similar to that of Super-Beacon: Demo: IP56 testing of Super-Beacon-IPxx.
All essential SW, as well as Marvelmind Dashboard API, are already included in the price of the beacon. Just download the Marvelmind SW pack: https://marvelmind.com/download/ => https://marvelmind.com/pics/marvelmind_SW.zip.
Specs and features:
- Designed for outdoor and industrial applications
- Supports dual-use – the beacon can receive and transmit ultrasound
- It can transmit on only its native ultrasonic frequency (19kHz, 22kHz, 25kHz, 28kHz, 31kHz, 34kHz, 37kHz, or 45kHz), and it can receive any ultrasonic frequency (19kHz-45kHz) or all at the same time
- Supports: IA, NIA, and MF NIA architectures, because it has ultrasonic transducers on the different ultrasonic frequency
- Very solid IP protection of up to IP56 level
- The difference between Industrial Super-Beacon-Metal and Industrial Super-Beacon-Plastic is that the Industrial Super-Beacon-Plastic supports all available TX frequencies. In contrast, the Industrial Super-Beacon-Metal supports only 25kHz. Thus, the Industrial Super-Beacon-Plastic supports both IA and NIA, while Industrial Super-Beacon-Metal is designed for NIA. At the same time, the Industrial Super-Beacon-Metal is even more robust and is even more protected than the Industrial Super-Beacon-Plastic, i.e., Industrial Super-Beacon-Metal is suitable for harsher environments than Industrial Super-Beacon-Plastic
- External bendable antenna with SMA connector for extended radio range
- Currently, it supports a license-free 915MHz ISM band (for example, US, Japan, Korea) and license-free SRD band 868MHz (EU, etc.). Future 433MHz HW variants are available upon request
- Two IP67 external connectors:
- Power:
- +5V (older version supported +12V power supply (works from +6V till +15V)) – the same as Industrial-RX
- Reset pin
- DFU pin
- GND
- Interfaces :
- RS485
- UART 3.3V
- USB (TX+RX)
- GND
- Power:
- Corresponding IP67 connectors (male part) included
- No battery inside by default – external power bank or external power supply (+5V (older hardware version supported +12V). An optional variant with an internal battery is available on request
- Extended working temperature range: -40C…+50C (provided by design – not tested, not certified). No battery inside – for the extended negative temperature range
- Embedded reset switch and DFU switch – magnetic control or external pins on IP67
- Can work with Industrial Beacons, Super-Beacons, Super-Beacons-Outdoor, and Mini-RX beacons in NIA and IA. In all cases, the radio bands must match
- Recommended ultrasonic range – up to 30m – depending on the ultrasound frequency. See more: How to choose ultrasound frequency for beacons
- Radio range to modem – up to a few hundred meters in open space with full-size antennas. See more: Radio connectivity – essential hints
- Optional external IP67 converter ~110/220V to +5V or optional IP67 battery
