Your Remote Site Management Solution for Alarms, Monitoring & Control

Directly connect analog sensors, status sensors and audio feeds. No extra boards to buy!

Thanks to its flexible input circuits, the Davicom Cortex can connect to almost any type of analog sensor. Sensors with various voltage outputs (0-1, 5, 10 …80V), current outputs (4-20mA), be they bipolar or differential can all be connected.

Audio or AC signals can be connected and levels measured thanks to built-in RMS detection circuits.

Digital inputs are also available for reading logic levels, relay contacts or statuses, with programmable active high or active low settings.

Design Automation Without a Single Line of Code!

With its relay outputs, the Davicom Cortex can command and control other equipment. From remotely switching to a backup transmitter to turning on the generator when a power outage occurs, the Davicom Cortex can take smart decisions to keep your site transmitting.

Davicom Cortex systems also provide automation with decision-making features and commands that go well beyond conventional telemetry systems. Units can for example detect an RF failure; place the standby transmitter on-air to restore the signal, and alert on-call personnel. Engineering staff can then diagnose the problem from the event history log and, using remote measurements, decide on the appropriate course of action.

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)

With their SNMP Agents and built-in SNMP Managers, Davicom's Cortex units are powerful SNMP appliances.

The Agent can convert analog readings or contact closures from legacy equipment into SNMP-compatible OID's that can be sent to, or read by an external SNMP Manager software.

The Davicom Cortex's Manager can take readings, make settings and receive alarms from other, on-site SNMP-compatible devices. Depending on the situation, it can then take action locally, or even concentrate the information from all the devices and pass it along to a remote SNMP Manager at the Networks Operations Center (NOC).

Use network PINGs to debug your network

Today, IP networking has become the nervous system of most organizations, including at remote sites. Davicom's Cortex units can monitor the health of your on-site IP LAN to ensure everything is interconnected and communicating as it should be. The Davicom Cortex's built-in Pings can check on the network status of connected devices as well as validate that remote WAN backhaul connections are operating correctly. By strategically addressing different Ping commands, the Davicom Cortex unit can analyze and determine which specific network branch or device is down. It can then use its virtual logic and built-in relays, or SNMP SET commands to individually, and automatically, reset site equipment, routers, switches or gateways.

Incorporating its own 4-port network switch, the Davicom Cortex360 can easily connect to other IP devices, and keep these connections alive should the site's main utility power fail.
