DNP-REMOTE TELEMETRY MODULE RELEASED FOR GENERAL AVAILABLILITY
DNP-RTM Extends Communication Beyond the Substation
Boise, Idaho – June 3,
2002 – Telemetric Corporation, a leading provider
of wireless remote monitoring and control solutions, announced
today that the DNP-Remote Telemetry Module (DNP-RTM) is commercially
available for integration with IEDs (Intelligent Electronic Devices)
such as recloser, capacitor bank and voltage regulator controllers
from all the major manufacturers. Availability comes after the
device underwent successful field testing with a major investor
owned utility.
The DNP-RTM was designed specifically
to cost effectively extend two-way communications beyond the substation
for intelligent devices such as an EnergyLine capacitor control.
Using the existing public cellular network, the DNP-RTM enables
communications to any DNP device in the field and provides access
right within the utility’s SCADA system or from a secure
web application. Dick Martin, Telemetric Product Manager explains,
“This product is much more than just a modem or 900Mhz radio
that lacks DNP capability and requires modem banks or a radio
infrastructure. No other product has the flexibility to communicate
by DNP to such a wide variety of equipment with this extensive
coverage. The DNP-RTM allows utilities to cost justify and widely
deploy communications leading to improved customer service and
protection against revenue loss.”
Integration kits are available for many
IEDs to allow simple installation. For more information on the
devices the DNP-RTM supports visit http://www.telemetric.net/ied/.
