6Remote Monitoring Unit

AV-RMU

3.0 AV-RMU

The Remote Monitoring Unit (RMU) is a connectivity device that allows products without internal telemetry hardware

to still be able to transfer data and communicate with an overarching Control and Monitoring or Asset Management

System. As a result, the product is able to be remotely monitored, managed, maintained and controlled by asset own-

ers.

Designed to perfectly integrate and supplement Avlite products, the RMU is able to receive data from a connected

asset (and power supply) and transfer this to a high-level control and monitoring system such as Star2M using its

SATCOM interface connected through Iridium.

When connected with Star2M, the RMU supports bi-directional communication, meaning that commands can also be

sent back to the connected product for control or monitoring purposes. As standard, the RMU supports a minimum

of four discrete IOs via General Purpose Inputs (2) and Outputs (2). The SATCOM interface supports the transmission

of a minimum of two generic alarms which the user can then map to the two General Purpose Inputs via a customised

Alarm Conguration in the Star2M Web Portal.

The RMU is available as a complete, standalone mechanical assembly and supports either a low current or high current

variant.

Note: This installation and service manual must be used in conjunction with the Star2M manual

5.0 Safety Information

Before proceeding with installation or service, make sure the following conditions are met:

• Ensure power lines are not ‘live’ (NO ELECTRICAL HAZARD).

• Avoid touching live circuits!

• Avoid touching any component or any part of the circuitry while the unit is operating. Do not change components

or make adjustments inside the unit with power on.

• When installing, comply with all local electrical code(s).

• Mains power should always be disconnected when work is being done in close proximity to electrical ttings, and

electrical work should only be done by a licensed electrician.

• To ensure that the equipment functions safely and correctly, use cable in compliance with the eective local elec-

trical code.

• Dispose of the product according to the local laws and regulations for your region, for example, at a recycling

centre that accepts electronic devices.

10 Remote Monitoring Unit

AV-RMU

6.0 Operation and Setup

The RMU allows a means of communication between Avlite supplied products and Star2M via its SATCOM interface,

connected via Iridium.

As a result, the RMU is able to provide monitoring of input power, load and solar charge of a connected lantern and

power supply. This information is relayed from the lantern to the RMU via the Serial communication interface in con-

junction with integrated current and voltage sensing circuits. The information is then transmitted to Star2M in the form

of a daily update which includes the following parameters:

• Load Current-Instantaneous

• Charge Current-Instantaneous

• Battery Voltage-Instantaneous

• Maximum Charge Current-24hr

• Total Charge Current-24hr

• Total Load Current-24hr

• Maximum Battery Voltage-24hr

• Minimum Battery Voltage-24hr

The transmission of generic alarms from the lantern to Star2M is also supported via two General Purpose Inputs when

triggered by the lantern or power supply.

Mounting hardware in the form of a bracket is included with the RMU enclosure for pole mounting, although wall

mounting is also suitable (mounting accessories not supplied). A mounting bracket is also provided for the external

SATCOMs Antenna.

Serial Communication is achieved either via serial cable (supplied) or direct wiring.
