Wireless Data Collection Systems – An Overview

Current data collection systems allow users to collect data wirelessly, easily, reliably, and in a cost-effective manner.
Systems can be either fully automated (RSTAR) or semi-automated (DT Link).
Data collection systems can be configured to suit user preference, layout of the instrumentation, and access to the project site.

Accurate Data for Improved Asset Management

Wireless data collection systems can be programmed to warn engineers of changing parameters in real-time. As a result, employee safety is improved, and costly production disruptions are minimized.

The Path to Success – Core Data Collection Components

Typical wireless data collection systems are comprised of sensors (instruments) connected to data loggers (DT Series). These pairings are known as nodes.
RST’s “DT Series” Data Loggers accommodate the RSTAR and DT Link Wireless Systems and are powered by a single lithium cell which provides years of battery life.
Compatible sensor types include:
- Vibrating Wire,
- Thermistors,
- Digitally Bussed Sensors,
- 4-20 mA Sensors,
- MEMS Tilt Sensors,
- Potentiometers, and
- Strain Gauge (full bridge) Sensors.

RSTAR

Fully automated collection.
Ideal for remote site locations or where frequent data collection is required.
Nodes use radio telemetry to connect to a central data logger (RSTAR Hub), which acts as the main access point.
Hub has its own data logger, antenna, and power.
Range from the node to Hub is up to 14 km.

DT Link

Semi-automated collection.
Ideal for on-site data collection where the data logger is within line of sight of the user.
Nodes connect wirelessly to a hand-held portable hub with USB laptop connection and host software.
Ranges from node to portable hub can be up to 500 m and 800 m.
