RT LIVE Industrial - Online Data Logger With Telemetry

Product Datasheet

 

RT LIVE Industrial gives full remote access to vehicle data over a wireless mobile data network internet connection. Data files stored on the unit can be accessed over the internet, and all inputs to the device can also be monitored in real time over the internet using any web browser (including Apple and Android products) as well as on a PC. Housed in a die cast enclosure with industry standard 25 way d-type for easy connection, the RT LIVE Industrial is ideal for general purpose data collection and remote monitoring in the field.

RT LIVE Industrial is ideal for applications where data logging or monitoring is required, but the vehicle is inaccessible. Typical examples would be mileage accumulation vehicles, customer vehicles, climatic testing or field trials. In addition, it also simplifies data handling, and allows office based engineers to access test data as it is being collected at the test track.

The RT LIVE unit can be used for simple applications as a standalone unit, just requiring an external 12v power feed.

The built-in inputs include:

  • Standard accuracy 10Hz GPS and GLONASS (20Hz with BeiDou and Galileo, RTK, both optional)
  • CAN data input port
  • 8 channel analogue inputs - Switcahable range: 0-5V or 0-25V ranges
  • RPM input

 

RT LIVE is a new type of data logger, which logs directly to a secure cloud storage using a wireless mobile internet connection. Data logged by the unit can be accessed over the internet, and all inputs to the device can also be monitored in real time over the internet using any web browser (including Microsoft, Apple and Android products), or using our PC software.

RT LIVE is ideal for applications where data logging or monitoring is required, but the vehicle is inaccessible. Typical examples would be mileage accumulation vehicles, customer vehicles, climatic testing or field trials. In addition, it also simplifies data handling, and allows office based engineers to access test data as it is being collected at the test track.

 

As well as sending the data to the cloud storage for later download and review, all data is also simultaneously available as a live telemetry feed. Summary telemetry can be viewed on the RT Cloud website. Or more detailed telemetry is available on the “Live Monitor” application. Virtual dashboards can be used and configured to graphically show the telemetry data.

The RT LIVE unit can be used as part of a system of Race Technology equipment including SPEEDBOX, thermocouple, analogue modules and DASH4PRO display. The RT LIVE Industrial is perfect as a stand-alone web based data logger. For applications where web based data logging and remote telemetry and required, in addition to local data logging, the RT CONNECT may offer a more suitable option.

 

When a mobile data connection is not available the data is automatically buffered in the RT LIVE internal memory and uploaded to the storage facility the next time a connection is available. All data is stored on the cloud as standard format Race Technology data (RUN) files which are compatible with all Race Technology’s software, including the comprehensive data analysis package. Alternatively the raw data can be very easily converted to other formats including Excel and Matlab. The cloud service is a commercial service provided by Amazon EC2, the data is held securely and fully backed up with redundancy.

Each RT LIVE unit is registered on the RT Cloud website before first use. Multiple units can be registered to an acount together for easy management of a vehicle test fleet. The SIM card in the RT LIVE is user accessible, so the SIM card can be changed to suit the testing location.

The RT LIVE Industrial offers a range of positional accuracy options up to 2cm accuracy RTK Differential (dual frequency and positional corrections) allowing the unit to be tailored to the testing requirements. For more information view the unit options.

 

There are ongoing charges for the RT LIVE, they are provided as an all inclusive package, with the first year being free. Extensions to this subscription can be charged either annually or five yearly. SIM cards are user supplied.
