Remote Monitoring Units



Global Monitoring has reintroduced its GMU 8100 Remote Monitor under the Messenger brand name. The Messenger remote monitoring units are designed to track and react to conditions at remote, unattended or inaccessible locations.

Offering dial-up communications, the Messenger 8100 Remote Monitors are land-line based, using common telephone lines that are ideal for use in applications where Wifi, ZigBee or other communications networks are not readily available or as part of a current facility infrastructure such as remote, unattended facilities. The Messenger also supports OEM vendors needing to monitor their third-part services at customer locations without taping into their customer communication networks.

Configurable to a variety of sensor types and expandable to 16 inputs, the Messenger 8100 Remote Monitors track conditions such as such temperature, humidity, voltage, air quality, sound level, occupancy, vibration, level and flow to perform various remote control tasks. The (RMUs) deliver information to computer, phone or fax and communicate via standard phone-line interface, optional cellular data or Ethernet interfaces.

"With land-line based communications, the Messenger 8100 Remote Monitor reduces or eliminates ongoing communications costs as it shares existing phone or fax lines," said a company spokesperson. "While competitive systems may require ongoing use of proprietary and costly monitoring services or communications network, the Messenger 8100 RMU operates autonomously and does not require the expertise of a computer tech or IT professional for set-up or maintenance."

Global Monitoring is expanding its Messenger Remote Monitor offering with an 8200 Series that works with cellular communications and an 8300 Series Remote Monitor with satellite communications.

Messenger brand remote monitoring units were originally introduced by Dancer Communications more then 20 years prior to its acquisition.
