The first release is for WirelessHART. Zigbee, ISA100 and other IEEE802.15.4 networks will be available in the next year. In addition, a powered Central Controller, using Power over Ethernet, which will operate over MQTT will also be available.
Here are some of the unique features of the IAN Genesis product:
• “ANY” network (WSN) – ISA, ZigBee etc. or GSM/Sat modem for long distance
• No buttons or display on the Instruments
- Instead intuitive visual metaphor for group membership dynamics
- AWS uses an AN (Admin Node – aka your tablet, or phone) for deeper HMI – its designed to be a good HMI !!
• Inherent security
- Every sensor authenticates – no possible counterfeits
- OTP (one time pad – the ONLY encryption proven to be mathematically perfect)
- Digitally signed readings & changes – EVERY time (authentication and integrity)
• Lifetime trace / Lifetime data (LTT / LTD)
- EVERY reading/change is logged in the instrument
• Location services
- Never “lose” a unit’s location
- Images/video of WHERE the unit is situated INTO the unit ITSELF
- Store any tag / GPS into the unit
• Self-contained configuration and documentation
- Works on Installation change it later
- Eliminates processes and paperwork
- Allows Cloning for replacement
• Moves adds and changes INVISIBLE to the existing Wireless Sensor Network (simplicity)
• Foreign ENs – aka cheap BLE sensors – allows these to be used but in fully controllable way, scale to tens of thousands on one Wireless Sensor Network without bogging down the WSN.
• Eight times as many FULL sensors now than the Wireless Sensor Network was designed for – many more Foreign ENs (broadcasters)
• Smart instruments – calculate LOCALLY derived measures – reduce need for BW – use high speed Wi-Fi as needed – lower energy use overall.
•Adaptive Wireless Solutions made a presentation at the ARC Forum in Orlando earlier in the year.
