Remote Monitoring Infrastructure

We design and build end-to-end monitoring setups from a single source: field device, communication network and monitoring panel.

Three field devices connecting to a cloud, then to a monitoring screen and a phone

What we do

When you want to see a value remotely, the job does not end with a single device: you need a board that measures or controls something in the field, a communication path that carries that data to a centre, and an interface that makes the data readable. We build all three layers together, so when a value does not appear on the panel, finding out whether the problem is in the sensor, on the line or on the server is not the customer's job.

The scope of an installation follows the need on site: it may be monitoring only, remote control may be added, or a data feed may be provided to an existing system.

Layers

  • Field layer. The measurement and control board: sensor inputs, relay and digital outputs, meter line interface, supply and protection. Board design and firmware are ours.
  • Communication layer. Carrying the data to the centre. Depending on the route this is LoRaWAN, a cellular network, a local wireless network, or collection over RS485.
  • Collection and storage. Validating incoming data, recording it with a timestamp, and filling in records missed while a link was down.
  • Monitoring interface. Live values, historical trends, alerts on threshold crossings, and export.

Choosing the link

Range, power source and data frequency decide this:

  • LoRaWAN works over long distances at low power, which suits nodes that send sparse but regular measurements on batteries or a limited supply. Because of duty cycle limits it is not the choice for work that needs frequent data.
  • Cellular helps at scattered points where building your own infrastructure is not possible; each point carries its own connection.
  • A local wireless network is the shortest route when a network already exists in the building.
  • Wired collection (M-Bus, RS485) is both stable and easy to maintain in buildings where the line has already been installed.

Most installations end up mixed: wired or radio collection inside the building, and a cellular link from the building to the centre.

Examples from the field

  • Boiler automation. An installation in centrally heated buildings where the boiler room is monitored and adjusted remotely; active in around 700 buildings.
  • LoRaWAN infrastructure. Meter reading, boiler automation, pool value monitoring and vehicle identification all run over a LoRaWAN network installed and operating in Istanbul.
  • Addressable RF fire detection. A retrofit installation of 420 wireless detectors, requiring no new cabling, built in 2025 in the Sivas Cumhuriyet Teknokent building.
  • Server room temperature and humidity monitoring. A monitoring arrangement in the same building that raises an alert when a threshold is crossed.

Scope and limits

  • Coverage and range depend on site conditions, and we do not publish distance figures that have not been measured. On large installations a coverage survey comes first.
  • On cellular links, the operator subscription and the data plan stay on the customer's side.
  • Electrical installation, panel wiring work and mechanical mounting are not part of every project; where they are needed, they are defined at the start.
  • Because uninterrupted operation depends on supply, network and access conditions on site, we make no absolute continuity commitment; instead, outage detection and alerting are made part of the installation.
