Customers can access remote data securely from any Internet-enabled computer. From password-protected accounts, users can view or download their data over a secure 256-bit encrypted connection. Customers can also change parameters at the remote site such as logging interval and server update rate with an easy-to-use browser-based interface.

Key Advantages

  • Worldwide satellite coverage
  • Plug-and-play compatibility with HOBO Smart Sensors: (see related products below)
  • Weather alerts sent via text or email messages
  • Smart-charging solar technology
  • Automatically transmits data to user accounts at DataGarrison.com
  • Operates on Iridium’s truly global satellite network

Research-grade Dependability

DataGarrison Satellite Stations are solar-powered logging and transmitting devices, compatible with all HOBO Smart Sensors from Onset Computer Corporation. With the push of a button, the DataGarrison station transmits environmental data to secure online user accounts, and alerts users if sensors exceed user-defined alarm conditions. Users can monitor and configure DataGarrison devices remotely with an easy-to-use online interface at www.DataGarrison.com.

All DataGarrison Stations are designed to survive in harsh environments—from -40 to 80 degrees Celsius and at any humidity level. The durable weatherproof enclosure is NEMA 6 rated and includes a GORETM vent to keep moisture out. Mounting hardware is constructed from corrosion-resistant galvanized steel.

Proprietary smart-charging technology automatically compensates for temperature variations, maximizing DataGarrison’s battery life and power storage capacity. Power level is monitored and transmitted with sensor data for continuous monitoring.
