Keep Equipment Running While Working From Home

EdgeScout 60 Day Remote Monitoring Trial with Power/mation

How can you keep your equipment or production lines running at maximum efficiency when you can’t be on location?

EdgeScout by RRAMAC can collect data from your equipment and provide detailed information on production totals, downtime, efficiency, and more. Installation is easy, and your system can be up and running in a matter of days. Information from your equipment will be readily accessible via a secure web browser, mobile app, and email/text alerts.

  1. Schedule a Free Phone Consultation
    • This is typically a 30 minute call, but can be shorter or longer depending on the complexity of your application. Simply complete the form to your right and a dedicated representative from Power/mation and RRAMAC will contact you!
  2. Recommendations Provided
    • After the initial consultation with Power/mation and RRAMAC, they will provide a recommended solution including the hardware items you would need.  If you already have a method of pushing data from your site, we will try to use your existing equipment. Otherwise we will propose an edge node to collect data from your automated equipment, or an edge node with wireless sensors to collect the data.
  3. Install Equipment
    • Installation does not require in depth knowledge of the equipment.  A typical installation will require someone to install a din rail mounted device next to your PLC, provide 24VDC power, and connect an Ethernet cable to the PLC.  The edge node may communicate to the internet via a LAN, WiFi, or cellular connection. RRAMAC will provide the cellular data plan as part of the 60 day trial if using an Edge Scout Edge Node with a built-in cellular modem
  4. Complete 60 Day Trial & Free Evaluation
    • RRAMAC will provide you a free account to monitor your equipment on the EdgeScout server for 60 days. After the 60 day trial, we will request a follow -up meeting to discuss what worked well, what could be improved and next steps.
  • This field is for validation purposes and should be left unchanged.

A $500 configuration fee would apply if you want RRAMAC to pre-configure your application for you to start with a fully configured working system. You would still be able to make changes yourself if desired.

Additional configuration fees would apply if you need a custom data communications  map, other drivers, or downtime/OEE dashboards.

If you already have hardware that we can connect to, there is no additional cost. Pricing for the EdgeScout edge node can be found here.
