System configurator

Build your monitoring system

Tell us what to measure, at how many points, and how the data should get back. What comes out is a parts list with quantities — not a product listing.

1/5

Where will the system be installed?

Sets the starting point and goes into the quote. Skip it if unsure.

Ready-made packages

These eight packages are produced by the same engine the wizard uses. If one is close to your site, start there.

What the wizard asks

Five questions, in the order an engineer asks them when scoping a job.

  1. 01

    Where will the system be installed?

    Sets the starting point and goes into the quote. Skip it if unsure.

  2. 02

    What has to be measured or watched?

    Pick as many as you need.

  3. 03

    How should readings reach the central unit?

    Choose between cabling, a LoRa radio, and the network you already have.

  4. 04

    How many points per quantity?

    Point count decides sensor quantity and how much central capacity you need.

  5. 05

    What should the system do with the data?

    Pick as many as you need.

Quantities covered

  • Temperature

    Cold storage, kilns, server rooms, warehouses

  • Humidity

    Shares a probe with temperature

  • Pressure

    Compressed air, pipelines, filters

  • Water leak

    Server-room floors, under chillers, plant rooms

  • Dust

    Cleanrooms, production lines, mines

  • Shock & vibration

    Motors, pumps, freight

  • AC current

    Motor draw, panel feeders

  • DC current

    Battery rooms, solar, UPS

  • AC voltage level

    Reads the value, not just presence

  • DC voltage level

    Battery and charger voltage

  • Analog input 4-20 mA

    When you already own the transmitter and need an input

  • Analog input 0-10 V

    Same as above, for a voltage-output transmitter

  • Dry contact

    On/off, door open, equipment fault

  • AC voltage presence

    Phase loss, feeder state

  • DC voltage presence

    DC supply loss, charger state

This page works over 76 published Fidar products.

Ways to connect

  • Wired CANopen

    Cabling is possible, up to a few hundred metres. Cheapest and most reliable.

  • Wireless LoRa

    Cabling is impractical or the points are scattered. Needs a gateway.

  • Networked (Ethernet)

    LAN already reaches the sensor. Suits server rooms and offices.

What the system does

  • Live status only — Local display and built-in web page
  • Platform SMS — The alert goes out through the platform. No extra hardware.
  • GSM SMS — Adds the FWN0260-01 dual-SIM modem.
  • Control output — Switches fans, pumps and heaters over relays
  • Logging & reports — History for audits and analysis
  • Remote access — Mobile app and cloud panel

Frequently asked questions

How does the tool work out the quantities?
From the point counts you enter and the channel count of each product. Ten dry-contact points are covered by three 3-channel detectors and one single, not four 3-channel units. Central unit capacity and gateway node counts come from the datasheets the same way.
Are prices shown?
No. These products are priced per project, against quantity, site and installation conditions. What this page produces is an exact parts list, so that your enquiry is specific.
How much can the recommendation be relied on?
Every package is labelled. If the combination is one Fidar already installs as a packaged system, the page says so. If it was worked out from the specifications, the page says that too and asks for an engineer's confirmation before you order.
What if cabling is not possible?
Choose the LoRa wireless option. Wireless sensors and a gateway sized to the node count are then added: FWL1600-01 covers up to sixteen nodes.

Your combination is not here?

Fidar's catalogue is larger than any wizard can ask about. Send us your requirement and an engineer will settle the configuration with you.
