Description

The Smart Remote Commander System (SRCS) is a wireless automation, control, and monitoring system for use with Windows PCs and laptops. It provides realtime occupancy detection, event notification, and reporting. It is especially ideal for the following uses:

Occupancy detection (motion detectors)
Remote activation (handheld & fob remotes)

The SRCS is well-suited for occupancy detection in these venues:

Reception areas
Lobbies and entrances
Hotel guest occupancy
Stores and retail centers
Hospice and elder care
Daycare centers
School hallways
Community centers
Parking garages
Meeting rooms
Recreation facilities
Secure zones
Storage facilities

The SRCS is also useful in venues where wireless handheld or fob remote activation may be necessary:

Demonstrations
Presentations
Kiosks
Security
Automation
Retail displays
Conference rooms

The SRCS is comprised of these elements:

Wireless handheld remote(s)
Wireless motion detector(s)
RF receiver + antenna
USB-to-RS232 adapter

Wi-Fi Sensor System

Attention OEMs and system integrators:

Are you developing or improving a product for a wireless monitoring application? The Wi-Fi Sensor System (WSS) is compatible with wireless peripherals including motion detectors and door/window sensors. It is a platform independent solution that can be used with PCs, tablets, and smartphones. The WSS uses 802.11 Wi-Fi technology to capture sensor data and transmit it to a client computer on a local network or over the internet.

Event Notifications

One of the strengths of the SRCS software is its ability to issue notifications based on pre-specified motion events. The following notifications are available:

E-mail
WAV sound
Pop-up message
Run application
System action (screen saver, shutdown, etc.)
Relay activation (see note)

(Note: Relay activation allows automatic control of an external device or appliance. This feature is available only with the Wi-Fi option.)

Devices

The SRCS supports a variety of wireless devices including motion sensors and handheld remote controls. These devices are compact, self-contained, and battery powered. No wiring is needed as the devices communicate via wireless RF signals. Each can be configured with a unique device address.

Motion sensor, available in white or black

Device Addressing

Each device may be configured with a unique address consisting of house- and unit-codes.

House codes: 'A' - 'P'
Unit codes: '1' - '16'

Up to 256 addresses are possible, allowing the use of many devices in a single application.

Software

Our SRCS host software for Windows is a tool for data capture and display of sensor data. The application captures and displays device events and also supports logging (premium edition).

One of the strengths of the SRCS software is its ability to issue notifications based on pre-specified events. The following notifications are available:

E-mail
WAV sound
Pop-up message
Run application
System action (screen saver, shutdown, etc.)
Relay activation (see note)

The software is available in two editions: standard and premium. The standard edition has the following primary features:

Wi-Fi Option:

The SRCS supports a Wi-Fi option for applications with remote capture requirements. This option includes a WS-1000 interface controller. The WS-1000 is easily configured for your network (requires specialized USB cable). The following network parameters are applicable:

SSID
Passphrase
Gateway (router) address
Static I.P. address
Port number

The following network authentication modes are supported:

WEP
WPA
WPA-PSK

If desired, custom OEM software may be developed for any client system including PCs, tablets, etc.
Here are the steps your software should perform for establishing a network connection to the WS-1000 controller and receiving data:

Create a TCP socket
Designate host assignment for the WS-1000 server (I.P. address or host name)
Connect to the server via the created socket
Initiate a receive operation and wait for sensor data from the WS-1000

Note: These steps are high-level instructions for informational purposes only. The specific method required will depend on the programming language, libraries, and operating system being used.
