Nanospark, a monitoring and operating system, is designed to integrate with new or existing systems and machines to economically introduce modern features.
For instance, Nanospark can be utilized as an equipment timer to save energy. Users can wire equipment to any or all of Nanospark's 10 outputs, and then create schedules for running individual machines. Alternatively, an entire system can be put on the same schedule. Users can make as many schedules as needed.
Schedules are created on the Nanospark Controller App running on a tablet. Users work with an actual touchscreen interface and simple, intuitive programming.
"A key feature of Nanospark is remote monitoring and control via text (SMS) message," said a company spokesperson. "Users stay connected, even with older machines, anywhere their phone has a signal, regardless of the type of phone they have. Users can check on the status of a machine or the entire system, or interrupt schedules by remotely turning machines on or off with a text."
Users do not have to initiate the inquiry, however, as the Nanospark Controller App also has configurable alerts. Users set up alerts in the same manner as schedules. Alerts can be configured to notify the appropriate individual(s) with a text message when processes are complete, a certain condition is met, or in the event of an emergency.
Nanospark may also be used for the controls in new machine designs. Nanospark's 5V inputs and outputs connect with the sensors and switches needed to operate the machine. The various components are then controlled through a custom made app.
The app replaces the buttons and switches of an old control panel with a touchscreen human machine interface (HMI), opening the door to add useful logic and connectivity to the machine. With the app, manufacturers can assist their customers by building in features like troubleshooting guides, spare parts lists, maintenance logs and prompts.
