Manage field equipment from anywhere

The Netbiter Argos IoT cloud enables easy remote management of your field equipment using a Netbiter gateway (via Modbus, EtherNet/IP, or CAN). It securely transmits encrypted data through mobile networks or Ethernet to the Argos data center.

Netbiter Argos allows you to monitor performance, receive alerts, and remotely program your equipment, delivering significant cost savings and enhanced control from day one. Hosted in a professional environment with redundant systems and geographically separate setups, it ensures reliable and secure operations.

What you can do with Netbiter Argos

Stay on top of alarms

The field system can be configured to generate alarms when a certain event occurs or when certain conditions are met. Netbiter Argos can send you alarms whenever your equipment reaches certain levels. You get instant information regarding both current and historical alarms.

Access field equipment (PLC or machine)

Netbiter Remote Access Mode opens up a secure tunnel to a PLC or machine. This enables configuration, programming or debugging of almost any industrial device from any location. You can use your regular PLC configuration software just as you would if you were on site.

Integrate data (Argos API)

The Argos API enables custom web interfaces for users, prioritizing their experience as Netbiter Argos gathers data from on-site equipment. Additionally, the API allows data integration with external systems, facilitating data refinement and combination. You can also craft a personalized layout using the Netbiter Argos API for a tailored solution.

Control systems & users

As an account administrator, Netbiter Argos gives you an instant overview of all your systems and users, anytime, anyplace. It provides a comprehensive project management feature that lets you easily specify different projects and the functions you require the system to have. In short, you get full control of your systems & users.

Analyze trends & reports

Learn how your equipment performs in the field: The log graph widget easily allows you to add and display device parameters in the form of a visualized trend graph. After defining your parameters, you are then able to utilize the built-in graph settings for displaying your data. Settings such as description, default-time period, navigation controls etc. can all be adjusted so you can extract the exact data from your devices for which you want to visualize in the trend graph.

Create visualized dashboards

Netbiter Argos features graphical dashboards which present data from the Netbiter communication gateways in the field. This powerful feature enables users to easily create a graphical layout of their remote installation. Add images such as analog and digital graphical components (gauges, meters, indicators, etc.) to display a visual layout that is easy to understand.
