The ConnectPort X2 Gateway for Smart Energy provides a low-cost connection between a Home Area Network (HAN) and remote web applications such as Digi's Smartlee™ application for iPhone and Android, or utility hosted websites designed for customer engagement.
Intended to share the connection of a homeowner's broadband Internet router, the gateway provides near real-time energy data access and control capabilities based on the Smart Energy devices enabled in the customer's home, such as a Programmable Communicating Thermostats (PCTs), In-Home Displays (IHDs), and Smart Energy utility meters.
iDigi Manager Pro is a feature of all Digi cellular gateways, routers, devices and components. iDigi Manager Pro provides a robust suite of network management tools including authentication, configuration management, account management, asynchronous updates and alerts, group and individual software updating, network data storage and gateway programming.
iDigi Manager Pro empowers IT, network operations and customer support organizations to conquer the challenges of managing the vast array of cellular equipment in their device networks. Network managers can remotely configure, upgrade, monitor and troubleshoot remote devices, and create applications that improve productivity, speed and efficiency.
Certified to the ZigBee Alliance Smart Energy Public Application Profile 1.1 and backwards compatible with 1.0, the gateway is interoperable with other certified Smart Energy devices. The gateway's connectivity, configuration and software upgrades are all easily managed by the iDigi Device Cloud service, a subscription supported service hosted by Digi.
Two configurations of the gateway are available for purchase. The Coordinator version is intended for stand-alone Smart Energy networks that do not have smart meters present. The Router version is configured to connect and read the smart metering system which has been installed at the site.
