To reach all point-of-use locations, it is available with a variety of wireless communications devices, including GSM cellular, CDMA cellular and spread spectrum radios. For landline telephone networks, a PSTN modem is also available.

The device incorporates programmable automation capabilities. IEC 61131-31 ladder diagram, Basic and Microsoft Automation environments expedite configuration of automation tasks and custom calculations for virtually any remote asset or process.
