Highlights

Technical data

Power supply

  • Passive PoE 10-24V DC.

Inputs

  • 1-Wire bus screw terminal,
  • DS18B20 sensor,
  • Measured temperature range: -55°C – 120°C.

Communication

  • Ethernet 10Mbps Half Duplex RJ45 port.

Supported protocols

  • HTTP (GET),
  • SNMP (Trap),
  • Modbus TCP,
  • TCP/UDP (shared protocol),
  • MQTT Inveo.

Communication

Communication with the module is carried out via LAN.

The user can choose from the following methods of temperature reading:

  • built-in web server, using a standard web browser (preferred browsers are Mozilla Firefox, Opera, Google Chrome),
  • MS Windows/Linux command line,
  • Modbus TCP,
  • optionally using your own application (provided TCP protocol).

Nano Temp is equipped with LEDs that indicate operation and the moment of the temperature reading from the sensor.

Alarm

The device has a built-in alarm function. The user can set a low, high and low-high value alarm. After an alarm occurs, a virtual output is enabled. This means that the user can check the current alarm status via HTTP, Modbus TCP or SNMP.

Additionally, the module is equipped with M2M functionality. Nano Temp can cooperate with other products of the Nano and Lantick series. Using M2M connection, the devices create a remote relay activation path (blower, fan, heater) when an alarm condition occurs.

Examples

In the Nano Temp module, there are several resources that can be read using the HTTP GET protocol.

  • status.xml – basic information about the device,
  • temp1.txt – current temperature shown in text form.

Example of the status.xml resource:

<response>
<out>00000000</out>
<on>00000000</on>
<in>00000000</in>
<counter1>0</counter1>
<temp1>34.3</temp1>
<mac>00:00:00:00:00:00</mac>
</response>

The value <on> 00000001 </ on> indicates that the alarm state occurs.

An example of how the MQTT service works:

The Nano Temp sends the current measured temperature value to the Inveo cloud.

Data are sent every 1 minute and after every data change. After installing the appropriate MQTT application, the temperature can be made available for preview directly on your smartphone.

The advantage of using MQTT is that you only need connect the Nano Temp to your router, configure the application on the smartphone and enjoy the remote temperature reading.
