Pushing limits

The most powerful monitoring and control systems in the world!

OS Linux

v.6.2

Processors

720 MHz, 2 Cores

Maximum sensors

130 physical sensors

Maximum elements

1000 virtual elements

Built-in web interface

All Vutlan monitoring devices have a built-in multilingual web interface for monitoring and managing the device.

Here you can configure notifications and alerts, logic schemes, user access rights, sensors and elements.

You can also view sensor graphs, logs and camera images.

Add more analog sensors using VT408 extension unit.

Each VT408 extension unit connected to the Vutlan monitoring device via the CAN bus adds the ability to connect 8 analog sensors to the system.

Sensors connected to the unit are automatically displayed in the system.

Add more Dry contacts using VT440

The VT440 / Dry Contacts extension unit increases the number of Dry contacts that can be connected to any Vutlan monitoring device.

Each VT440 device adds 32 dry contacts. Each VT440 + VT32 expansion module adds 64 dry contacts. 

A tab for monitoring and configuring dry contacts is available in the Vutlan device interface.

Connecting CAN sensors

You can connect multiple CAN devices to a CAN bus chain.

Each VT408 unit in the CAN bus chain adds 8 analog sensors. Each VT440 unit adds 32 or 64 dry contact inputs to the system.

An additional CAN12V-1A power supply is only required if the number of CAN devices in the CAN bus chain exceeds 12 pieces.

Centralized Infrastructure Management Software using SNMP protocol

No matter how complex your IT infrastructure is, you can manage all assets using DCIM SNMP software, infrastructure management software.

Vutlan supports SNMP v1, SNMP v2c, SNMP v3. Hence the data from Vutlan monitoring units can be monitored from any SNMP managemnt software package.
