HOTSPOT : The name of a particular location where a wireless network (Wi-Fi technology) is available for use.

ETHERNET : An interconnection structure for local area networks (LAN) - based on the packets shipment. It defines cabling and electrical signals for the

physical layer, in a packet format and protocols for the OSI model’s Media Access Control (MAC) sublayer.

DHCP : Enables a server to automatically distribute different IP addresses to all computers as they submit a request to connect to the network. This distribution of

the IPs is performed at a predefined interval, configured on the server. Whenever one of the machines is disconnected, the IP will be free for use in another.

HDMI : Stands for High-Definition Multimedia Interface, which is a digital audio and video conductive interface, capable of transmitting uncompressed data,

being an improved alternative to analog standards such as radio frequency, VGA, and others.

PROXY : Term used to define the intermediaries between the user and the server. For that reason, it performs the role of connecting the (local) computer to the

external network (Internet). Because local computer addresses are not valid for external access, the proxy is responsible for sending the request from the local

address to the server by, translating and forwarding it to the computer.

OHMS : The electrical resistancel, a unit of measurement recognized by the International System of Units (SI). The OHMs comprise the ratio of the voltage of a

volt to an ampere current.

BROWSER : A software program developed to allow Web browsing, capable of processing several languages, such as HTML, ASP, and PHP. Its interface varies

according to the brand, chosen by the user.

USB : Universal Serial Bus, a type of technology that allows the connection of peripherals without having to turn off the computer, as well as transmitting and

storing data.

2. DESCRIPTION

3. APPLICATIONS

4. TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

The inbox acts as a data server, providing monitoring information with the Pro program (Windows application) and Sitrad Mobile (mobile sitrad Sitrad

application). The inbox is a device capable of managing the data provided by the Full Gauge controllers installed in the communication network, sitrad

being responsible for collecting, storing, monitoring and making information available.

The inbox enables remote access to information from a variety of applications, such as temperature, humidity, pressure and voltage data, from sitrad

anywhere around the world. It is a versatile tool, which can be applied in several segments, such as supermarket chains, refrigerators, restaurants, hotels,

laboratories, among others.

The built-in memory allows users to store controller database and plot graphs. nctionality records the parameter changes made by local or The event log fu

remote computers, smartphones, tablets or directly in the controller. This is just one example - the inbox preserves the renowned operating features Sitrad

of the traditional Sitrad Service.

The device enables direct connection of up to 32 instruments using its RS-485 communication port. It is also possible to collect controller data through the Wi-Fi,

Ethernet and USB converters provided by Full Gauge Controls.

7.1 - Wi-Fi : Wi-Fi converters (TCP-485 Wi-Fi and TCP-485 Wi-Fi Log) can be accessed through the inbox in two ways:

- Hotspot on : Converters can be configured to connect to the Wi-Fi network provided by the inbox (without a Wi-Fi router).Sitrad

- Hotspot off : Converters are configured to connect to an existing Wi-Fi network (with a Wi--Fi router), and the inbox accesses these Sit

converters through the same Wi-Fi network

7.2 - USB : Connect the USB cable to the inbox appropriate input. The other end of the cable should be connected to the CONV32. It can be sitrad

directly connected to up to four USB converters in the inbox , using the CONV32 version 03 or higher. If version 01 or 02of CONV32 is

used only one USB can be connected.

7.3 - Ethernet : Connect the inbox to the router using an Ethernet cable (RJ-45). With another cable (RJ-45), connect the TCP-485 Sitrad

(Ethernet converter) to the same router.

7.4 - RS-485 : Directly connect the first terminal block to inputs A and B of inbox, maintaining the ‘’A-A, B-B’’ connection pattern. One Sitrad

terminal block must be used for each connected controller.

8. REMOTELY CONNECTING THE SITRAD PRO

8.2 - Registering the server

The inbox acts as data server, in which the data collected from the controllers is stored in its internal memory. To view and monitor this data, connect Sitrad

Sitrad Sitrad Sitrad Sitrad Pro to inbox. Firstly, from a computer, install the Pro software, available at www.sitrad.com/sitrad-pro. To connect the inbox

and register the server, proceed as follows:

8.1.2 - Ethernet Mode :

- Connect the inbox to a wired Ethernet network that has a computer with the Pro software installed. If the network being used is in DHCP sitradf sitrafd

mode, please follow steps 8.8 and 8.9 of the section ‘’Registering the Sitrad inbox server’’.

- When the network used is not in DHCP mode, please contact your network administrator and configure the inbox network parameters according to

item 9.4 (Ethernet).

8.2.1 - For the three connection modes (HOTSPOT, WI-FI and ETHERNET), the registration of inbox as server is as follow:Sitrad

8.2.2 - After connecting to the inbox network, open Pro and select the option ‘’ Register new server ’’;

IMPORTANT:

- The Ethernet Mode is independent of the others, and can be used in conjunction with Hotspot Mode or Wi-Fi Mode, but never with both

simultaneously.

- For remote connections, please contact your network administrator for network and external access settings.

8.1.3 - Wi-Fi Mode :

- On the inbox configuration screen, connect to an existing Wi-Fi network. Please check if this network has a computer with the Pro software

installed.

9. SETTING UP THE SITRAD INBOX

9.1 - The inbox settings page can be accessed directly or remotely. It consists of an application for adjusting the system’s general operating sitrad

parameters. It allows users to change date and time, network parameters, data backup and system upgrades, among other features.

It can be accessed in three different ways:

1° - Directly : Using a monitor connected to the HDMI output;

2° - Wi-Fi Connection : Using a computer, tablet or smartphone with a browser (CHROME, MOZILLA FIREFOX, SAFARI, EDGE, etc.);

3° - Ethernet Connection : Using a computer with a browser (CHROME, MOZILLA FIREFOX, SAFARI, EDGE, etc.).

The inbox has the Hotspot mode enabled by default. This mode is Sitrad

required for the first setup.

From a mobile device, access the network settings and connect to

SitradinboxNet using the sitrad001 password (the network name and

password settings can be modified later according to item 9.10).

Open a browser (CHROME, MOZILLA FIREFOX, SAFARI, EDGE, etc.) and

enter 192.168.1.1 in the address bar.

2° Wi-Fi Connection

Connect the inbox to a router using an RJ-45 cable. Using a Sitrad

computer connected to the same network, open a browser (CHROME,

MOZILLA FIREFOX, SAFARI, EDGE, etc.). Enter the IP assigned to the

software in the address bar. To know the IP number, please contact your

network administrator.

3° Ethernet Connection
