Bryssels - Ethernet temperature module
Abstract
Bryssels is a raw Ethernet based module that comes in two versions that can be used to
- Type 1: Measure internal temperature and relative humidity.
- Type 2: Measure temperatue.
The module fully adopts to the CAN4VSCP specification and can be powered directly over the bus with a 12-50V DC power source. It has a rich register set for configuration and any information events defined. It also have a decison matrix for easy dynamic event handling.
VSCP Ethernet modules communicate directly over the Ethernet protocol. This means there is no need to set communication parameters such as ip address, mask, gateway etc before it can be used. Just connect the module and attach power and it will be active and working. As with all Ethernet units a cable of 90 meters maximum can be used. Some of our ethernet modules also have TCP/IP. Parameters for TCP/IP can be setup over Ethernet or discoverd using DHCP. TCP/IP devices can route Ethernet VSCP traffic to remote locations as VSCP Ethernet is always will stay behind a router. This is an extra security that prevent unauthorized use of the device from outside of a router.
All VSCP modules contains information of there own setup, manual, hardware version, manufacturer etc. You just ask the module for the information you need and you will get it. When they are started up they have a default functionality that often is all that is needed to get a working setup. If the module have something to report it will send you an event and if it is setup to react on a certain type of event it will do it's work when you send event(s) to it.
