The system is intended for freezer work supervision, which contain valuable biological samples requiring low temperature (-32°C). The analogous systems can supervise work of the devices or rooms, where it is necessary to control such parameters as: temperature, humidity or atmospheric pressure.
Panel LB-707 is a measurement microcomputer, which serves the outside probes of temperature and humidity. The panel can be also equipped with an atmospheric pressure sensor. Built-in the device GSM/GPRS module allows on wireless communication using SMS messages and a GPRS channel. The panel is equipped with an electronic messages memory, LCD display and a keyboard. In this application the panels cooperate with the temperature probes (single and double). For communication with a factory computer, which collects data, an interface RS232 is used, where in a second room additionally a converter is used, which allows on cooperation with a factory LAN network. The panel is seen by the system as a network device. Using a cellular telephony module the panel sends out package data (GPRS) as well as alarm info by SMS. The outside signaling devices are also connected to the panel.

The device serves as a logger (recorder) of the measurement data. The measured results are stored in the internal electronic memory and sent by internet network to a remote server using GPRS service of a cellular telephony operator. In energy saving mode the panel switches itself on periodically to perform registry and after it goes back to standby. A user has a possibility of defining the parameters that get included in the registry as well as defining a record interval, or resolution of the stored results. The registry memory capacity depends on the settings and type of memory installed. As an example for a single temperature probe it is 3936 records (with basic memory size).
For each one of the measured parameters it is possible to set few alarm thresholds: one threshold for the exceeds going up, the other one for the exceeds going down. When the measured value exceeds an alarm threshold the panel sends out SMS message with an adequate information. When value of the measured parameter goes back to an allowed interval, the panel sends out information about the alarm’s end. Additionally, the following situations are signaled as alarms: lack of network power supply, battery exhaustion, equipment errors. The SMS alarms are sent to maximum 5 users entered into the device memory. The alarms can be sent as well by using Internet/GPRS network to a data server. Data transfer from the panel to a LAB-EL server allows on the freezers’ work control from any place using Internet and a PSM system.
