This enables you to access the system from any computer, tablet or phone on your network, only limited by your network security. The webpage displays all measurements and easily allows you to set up alarms for failure conditions such as high or low power or poor antenna VSWR. The unit includes both software and hard contact alarms and can even be configured to send you an email to alert you to an emergency condition. Also standard, is Data Logging, which takes reliability one step further by enabling you to see degraded performance before it becomes an emergency.

Features
