Remote configuration and monitoring

The BeanScape application allows the user to view all the data transmitted by the BeanDevice AX-3D With the OTAC (Over-the-Air configuration) feature, the user can remotely configure the BeanDevice AX-3D. Several data acquisition modes are available on the BeanDevice AX-3D :

OTAC*
OPC Server**

**OPC server is only available on the BeanS-

Low Duty Cycle Data Acquisition mode (LDCDA): the data acquisition is immediately transmitted by radio. The transmission frequency can be configured from 1s to 24h. Alarm Mode : the measured value is transmitted by radio whenever an alarm threshold (fixed by the user) is detected (4 alarm threshold levels High/Low). Survey Mode : operates like the Alarm mode but the device sends frequently a beacon frame informing its current status. Streaming Packet Mode: all measured values are transmitted by packet within a continuous flow at 5000 samples per second maximum Streaming Mode: all measured values are transmitted in real -time within a continuous flow at 100 samples per second maximum

AX-3D
*Over-the-Air Configuration

The BeanScape Premium+ integrates an OPC DA server (Data Access). OPC DA is particularly well suited for real time measurement and data sharing. Each data/measurement can be associated to a tag or its attributes and shared with one or many OPC clients.

Antenna Diversity
While the vast majority of wireless sensors show their limits in harsh industrial environment, the BeanDevice AX-3D integrates an innovative antenna diversity design, boosting the radio link quality in environments subject to random and diverse disturbances. Antenna Diversity improves both the quality and reliability of a wireless link by

Embedded data logger up to 1 000 000 data acquisition records

The BeanDevice AX-3D integrates an embedded Datalogger, which can be used to log data when a Wireless Sensor network can not be easily deployed on your site. All the data acquisition are stored on the embedded flash and then transmitted to the BeanGateway when a Wireless Sensor Network is established. The data logger function is compatible with all the data acquisition mode available on your BeanDevice AX-3D : LowDutyCycle Data Acquisition Alarm Streaming & Streaming packet

Example: Vibration Analysis on windmills blades

The BeanDevice AX-3D is configured with its Datalogger feature. A standalone installation of the BeanDevice AX-3D will be done on the windmills blades, without the necessity to be connected to the BeanGateway. Once the blades starts rotating, each data is recorded on the embedded flash.

When the windmill is for maintenance, a technician working on the site can send a request for a log transmission. Then the BeanDevice AX-3D starts sending all its logs . If all the logs are sucessfully transmitted to the BeanGateway, the flash memory is erased and new logs will be recorded.

For further informations about the Datalogger, please read the following technical note TN_RF_007 BeanDevice DataLogger User Guide
