Connecting a Storm data logger to Storm
Central is as easy as pressing a button—
literally. However, prior to pressing that
button, the modem and cellular service
need to first be configured and verified
by following these steps:
Collect data with Storm Central
Storm Central was created specifically for communicating with the Storm data logger. As such,
the following section focuses on connecting a Storm data logger to Storm Central using a
cellular modem. Other data loggers can also send their data to Storm Central, though their
implementation will not be covered below. Please contact WaterLOG Sales about your data logger
for further options on connecting it to Storm Central.
First, the modem should be configured
and tested. This can be done within the
Modem Setup page of the Storm data
logger.
Both GSM modems (GPRS, 3G, 4G, etc)
and CDMA modems (1x), require Modem
Settings to be specified. GSM modems
also require the Service Provider, Access
Point Name (APN), and possible APN
Username and APN Password, provided
by the cellular Service Provider.
