Description

The RX250-AL GEN II Receiver/Logger can be the central component of the GEN II logging system, designed to operate without a continuously connected PC due to its built-in battery backup, which ensures uninterrupted data logging during power outages. This receiver logger is capable of generating alarms, and multiple RX250AL units can be used in one area to cover different groups of transmitters. The RX250AL offers features such as dual RS232 serial ports and connectivity options like GSM, Ethernet, internet, and GPRS, which can allow for SMS alarms.

The RX250-AL can handle up to 250 channels over up to 125 transmitters, with a memory capacity of 247,000 readings, expandable to 2,000,000. It has a backup battery life of approximately 24 hours and operates within an ambient temperature range of -10 to +55°C. The device also includes a display and keypad for on-line metering, and it is compatible with DARCA software for setup, graphing, and data export.
