Why eight points in one house?

House temperature is not uniform: the two ends, the area near the fans and the area near the heaters all differ. Several points down the house show the real spread; a single point hides it behind an average.

How quickly does an alert arrive?

The sampling interval is configurable and the controller samples as often as every seven seconds. How fast the SMS itself arrives depends on the mobile network.

What happens if the house loses power?

The controller is installed on a UPS so that the outage itself is texted as a critical event — usually the single most important alert on a poultry site.

The central unit is the main data logger.

Central unit

1×FIDAQUIRE FCD6455-01 Industrial Data Logger
FCD6455-01
The datasheet states no device ceiling; this configuration carries 8.

Sensors

8×Temperature and Humidity Sensor
FTA3070-01
8 Temperature and Humidity points; 1 channel(s) per device, so 8.

Control outputs

2×2-Channel Relay Module
FDR0102-01
3 outputs remain; 2 × 2-channel relay module.

Notes on this configuration

Temperature and Humidity share one probe — the sensors are not counted twice.
This unit also takes 5 I/O cards at 8 channels each; if you would rather wire straight into the chassis, an engineer can quote the card-based build.
1 of the 4 control outputs come off the unit's own relays.
This is a combination Fidar already installs as a packaged system.
