User manual FIREFLY alarm unit About FIREFLY FIREFLY is designed as a simple alarm device according to the term "The local red alarm lamp has become intelligent". FIREFLY is a battery-powered or permanently supplied 3V DC intelligent alarm unit that can replace the existing red alarm lamp, so pump alarms and high-water flow switches are sent directly to the SCADA system via Sigfox communication. FIREFLY comes with 2 digital inputs and 1 analog input 0-10V DC, which can be used to measure the pump current, as well as provide number of starts and running time if a power coil is connected. FIREFLY...

User manual The network structure is therefore in place, which allows you to place your FIREFLY and GEKKO data loggers without having to make any further improvements. FIREFLY communicates, using already installed SigFox gateways, to the Sigfox back-end, from which data can be accessed directly via API or equivalent or via ModBus protocol through AcowaCore software. The coverage of the network may vary from country to country, and it is therefore important to ensure cooperation with the local provider in the individual markets. Information about these can be found at https://www.sigfox.com/en...

Digital inputs are monitored in real time, and changes are reported instantly through the SigFox network. For the measurement of analog input. FIREFLY will record the pump's ON / OFF state in a 5-minute resolution on battery and 1-minute resolution on fixed supply, as well as the latest current measured consumption. Both of these parameters require an electrical coil mounted on AI1. Sealing gasket for sealing between unit and e.g. street cabinet. M12 gland for cable entry. M40 threads and screws for...

User manual ACOWA INSTRUMENTS Registration of change on DI1 and DI2 (30 second scan) At each scan the status of DI1 and DI2 will be registered. If the status on the DI has changed since the last scan, a status telegram with DI status and last measured current is sent immediately. As the SigFox network has a limitation in the number of telegrams which can be sent per day, a new status change on DI1 and DI2 will have a delay of 15 minutes, before sending a change via SIGFOX backend. This is to ensure that you stay within the allowed number of telegrams sent within 1 hour. Status telegram (Every...

User manual Every 15 minutes, an operation log telegram is sent to the SigFox back end. The operation log telegram contains measurements from the last 60-minute period. Which means that if a SigFox back-end telegram is lost, data for that 15-minute period will be included in the next telegram. - If high current is detected, then a "1" is registered in the FIREFLY memory. Each bit represents an entire period of 1 minute. This means that it is only recorded whether a pump has been running or not, not how long it has been running - nor how many starts it has had, during that 1-minute period. If...
