Virtus offers advanced solutions for monitoring environmental parameters. Being equipped with 2 relay outputs, it can be used to control various system components, for example by starting a fan if a set temperature or humidity threshold is exceeded.

Key functions

• Automatically responds to signals from sensors and digital inputs, executing programmed actions, e.g. by controlling outputs or sending notifications.
• Uses the Cron syntax of Linux systems for scheduling time-based actions.
• Features Logic and Lua script language for executing complex logical operations without the need for external controllers.
• Supports popular communication protocols such as HTTP(s), MQTT(s), SNMP, Modbus TCP and RTU, allowing for integration with various devices.
• The device is housed in a 1U metal enclosure designed to mount inside telecommunications and network equipment racks.

Device Overview

• Sensors: Supports a variety of environmental sensors such as temperature, humidity, water flooding, phase loss/power failure, light brightness, air pressure, water pressure, CO/CO₂/NOₓ gases, door opening (reed switch) and others on special request. Thresholds for triggering actions can be customised.
• External device power: +5V and 12V DC voltages are provided to the user (e.g. for powering sensors). The voltages are available no matter which power supply method is used.
• Actions: Configurable functions triggered by events such as temperature changes or input fluctuations, including email alerts or HTTP requests.
• Inputs: Provides digital inputs with pulse counter and noise filter, enabling a variety of functions, such as long-press detection or pulse frequency comparison.
• Outputs: Provides NO/NC relay outputs operating in different modes, such as bistable or timed, with the possibility of assigning them to different sources.
