NTMS4i Specifications

Description

The NTMS4 (Network Telemetry Monitoring System with 4 ports) is a standalone Ethernet network device. It operates with an IP address and a network MAC address or "Networked Robotics Unique ID". The NTMS4 continually collects temperatures and other environmental data types from up to four (4) diverse data sources, each of which is assigned a unique TCP network port address.

Operation

Temperatures and other kinds of environmental data are requested of the NTMS through the network by the Tempurity Server at time intervals defined at the server. The current default Tempurity System network-side data collection period is one minute.

One of the primary functions of the NTMS network hardware is real-time data integration. The NTMS is able to talk to the data communication ports of diverse high-end scientific freezers and incubators. It can also collect data from Networked Robotics' advanced digital sensors. See the Networked Robotics "Network Data Collection Products" page, or the hardware documentation page for a list of our interface and sensor products and their associated hardware manuals.
