Product Description
AV-00-SABRE-RANGER Wideye Sabre Ranger BGAN M2M
The Wideye SABRE™ Ranger is a class 3 BGAN terminal built for long term fixed location outdoor operation.
Performs like any BGAN terminal, but also maintains a continuous, always available network/Internet connection.
Supports devices such as SCADA sensors, and is perfectly suited as a manned or unmanned communications link
All BGAN terminals (except the Ranger, the Hughes 9201 M2M and the Hughes 9502 M2M) will close a connection if it becomes idle after a few minutes and reconnecting those terminals would require human interaction.
Industry Uses Of The Wideye Ranger BGAN Terminal
Consider the Wideye Ranger as a low-power, Ethernet port in remote locations. Industry uses are:
►Utility Smart Grid – Realtime control with less about 1200 millisecond latency.
►Weather, environmental, seismic warning sensors over a wide (global) area.
►Pump/Valve monitoring and control – Access remote devices, screens, parameters.
►Asset Monitoring – Trigger Switches, Door open, motion detector, alarm send information.
►Remote Video Surveillance – 448 Kbps speeds allow for fast refresh-rate of images real-time.
►Credit Card Processing – low power, small profile, make it an alternative to satellite dishes.
►Low or High-Bandwidth SCADA or M2M devices.
►Any remote device that communicates over a standard TCP-IP Internet connection.

IOTA APPLICATION FOR M2M & SCADA
Addvalue has an intelligent and programmable “Machine to Machine” (M2M) application enabler device called the IOTA™.
The IOTA™ together with the SABRE™ Ranger terminal forms a unique equipment suite suitable for SCADA applications. This suite combination supports unmanned SCADA applications in remote, hard-to-access or hazardous locations. The IOTA™ is specially designed to control both the SABRE™ Ranger and to interface with various types of SCADA equipment.
Addvalue’s Wideye™ IOTA™ supports WinCE programming. Clients can development their software applications on this platform. These applications can be tailored for command and control of their particular SCADA equipment and the SABRE™ Ranger. The entire equipment suite – SABRE™ Ranger, IOTA™ and the SCADA equipment – can then be remotely accessed from the user’s headquarter via the Inmarsat BGAN network. In the setup depicted below, the SABRE™ Ranger is used as a BGAN communication terminal for transmitting SCADA data to the Monitoring and Control Centre (MCC) that typically is located far away from the remote SCADA location.
In this application, the IOTA™ is acting as a controller to manage between the SCADA equipment and the SABRE™ Ranger. It controls the SCADA equipment for data collection and at the same time manages the transmission, whether periodically or continuously, over BGAN via the SABRE™ Ranger terminal. The IOTA™ can host applications to run regular diagnostic tests on the SCADA equipment where necessary or act as a gateway for remote access to
perform diagnostic checks. In a typical SCADA application scenario, the IOTA™ will collect and compress data from the SCADA sensors and send them to the MCC. Likewise, the MCC can draw data from the remote SCADA site when necessary. In instances where the MCC needs to perform diagnostic checks on the SCADA sensors, it can do so via the IOTA™.
The IOTA™ also functions as a health-screener on the SABRE™ Ranger terminal. It will periodically poll the health of the SABRE™ Ranger terminal and perform necessary self recovery routine if required. In severe situations where the self recovery routine fails, the IOTA™ can power cycle the SABRE™ Ranger terminal via its internal power relay circuit.
