Wrenching wizards,
I have a part time occupied clients house at 10,000 elevation that does not have: cell service, barely texting capability, & a radio based Century link semi reliable analog phone (as long as the wind is not blowing the radio antenna around). She does have Hughes-net or equivalent satellite internet & a 2 year old Outback power system/Mate III with a 20 KW Kohler generator. During the latest cold snap (-7°) the generator failed to start as it is in an outdoor unheated garage. LP gas backs up the whole scenario. Snowmobile is the only access & if it is a snow storm there is a great chance that you are not getting in or out due to sever drifting. Q In order to send a low power signal (<23.9 VDC?) or generator failure to start distress call from the Outback equipment: What is available to communicate a variety of distress signals via internet? Can the RE Optics interface perform this task? I have a local security/alarm company that can provide via router (this requires AC present though): Low temperature & AC out (but at that point it is too late the house is on a downhill slide), Low DC & or generator failure to start would be preferable. The alarm companys connection to the router can read a closed relay as a command. Suggestions & what have you used? Thanks in advance. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dana Orzel Great Solar Works, Inc - NABCEP # 051112-136 E - [email protected] - Web - solarwork.com O - 970.626.5253 C - 208.721.7003 "Responsible Technologies for Responsible People since 1988" P Please consider the environment before printing this email.
