Phoenix Contact: App supports signaling system for 4G devices

The TC MOBILE I/O app supports the use of the TC MOBILE I/O X200 alarm and remote control module by enabling SMS commands to be triggered with just a click and displaying the current device status clearly to the user.

The TC MOBILE I/O X200 remote control module

The TC MOBILE I/O X200 device family is ideal for sending simple SMS and e-mail alerts containing digital and analog values as well as for switching relay outputs. This provides an easy and cost-effective way to implement tank fill-level monitoring or pump switching. With the mobile module, which is available as a 24 V DC control cabinet device and as a 230 V AC power supply unit, you can monitor even the most remote substations cost-effectively. Routine inspections of the station in the field are therefore no longer necessary. The module is controlled via SMS commands that can be sent either by the technician out in the field via mobile phone or via a mobile router in the control room.

Convenient operation via the app

The app saves you having to type out an SMS, provides additional information such as the device documentation for startup on site, and clearly indicates the device status in the form of an SMS text. With the new update, the app also supports the 4G versions in the TC MOBILE I/O family which have recently been launched on the market. These offer the latest mobile technology in the form of future-oriented 4G technology (LTE CAT1) with 2G fallback (GSM/GPRS/EDGE).
