Telemetry Units

RS330 Cellular or Mesh Telemetry Unit

An advanced telemetry node, data logger, and equipment controller that runs standalone over cellular, or as part of a multi-node RanchMesh™ network for large or cellular-poor properties.

Cellular or Mesh Telemetry Unit

Overview

The RS330 is an advanced telemetry node, data logger, and equipment controller capable of reading data from a variety of sensors and uploading it to the Ranch Cloud™ platform. Configuration is available over a cabled PC connection or the myRanch™ app.

RS330 can function as a standalone unit or as part of a multi-node RanchMesh™ network. The standalone unit includes a cellular modem that communicates directly with Ranch Cloud, so you can place it wherever cellular service is available. A RanchMesh network is the better fit for areas with limited cellular coverage, or for large installations spanning multiple locations.

How RanchMesh™ works

Base station

  • Includes a cellular modem to communicate with Ranch Cloud
  • Includes a local-area mesh modem to communicate with other nodes
  • Every RanchMesh installation requires at least one base station

Router & end nodes

  • Communicate with the base station and each other over the local mesh
  • End nodes can reach the base station directly, or relay through router nodes
  • This multi-hop approach extends range past line-of-sight or terrain limits
