NetPing IO R401

The device is not intended for domestic use.

NetPing IO R401 is a remote monitoring device with the ability to connect executive devices. A device has got no case and is packed into the heat-shrinkable tubing. NetPing IO R401 is the cheapest device in our model line. Connected to it, door opening sensors, motion detectors, shock sensors, light and noise sirens will warn of unauthorized access. Leakage sensors will allow  to receive timely notifications about emergencies, and 220V detection sensors will allow to receive timely notifications about disappearing and appearing of power in a monitored electrical network.

NetPing IO R401 device is shipped without a power unit. For its operation, it is possible to use any external power unit with a voltage 12 V and a current more than 0,4А or purchase appropriate power unit from us: power unit 12V 0,5А.

Usually, NetPing IO R401 is used to:

• Monitor and restrict access to cabinets with equipment 

• Load control via power relay and NetPing AC/DIN socket;

• Notify persons in charge about emergencies.

Pluggable Sensors and Monitoring Functions of NetPing IO R401:

Email,  SNMP TRAP, Syslog notifications about sensors triggering

When sensors, connected to a device, are triggered, the device can send the next notifications:

• Email - a device can send Email messages directly through an SMTP server. Both notifications about sensors triggering and periodical reports about sensors status are sent via Email.

• SNMP TRAP - is convenient to use for integration with monitoring systems as well as for fulfilling automatic actions on a PC (for example, start playing an alarm) with the help of specific software.

• Syslog - with the help of specific software installed on a PC (a syslog server), all messages from sensors can be stored in a text file for a following analysis.

Supply Voltage Sensor

This sensor allows to detect a presence or an absence of supply voltage sensor in a power supply socket, to which a sensor is connected. A common use of this sensor is to receive notifications when a voltage in the electrical network disappears. At the same time, the device must be powered by UPS or a battery, or a backup power line.

A Door Opening/Closing Sensor

It performs security and monitoring functions. It helps to track opening/closing of a door into a server room or the same of a door to a switch cabinet with equipment.

A Leakage Sensor

Allows to determine a water on a floor of a server room or on a bottom of a wiring closet. In a case of flooding (a breakage in a water or heating system) this sensor allows to give advance notice to a responsible employee about a contingency. Also this sensor can be useful to control leakage in a conditioner condensing system.

Smoke detector

Allows to detect any smoke content in a room. With NetPing devices, it is usually used as a backup sensor for monitoring. To implement the functions of security and fire systems, you must use appropriate equipment!

A Shock Sensor

Registers shocks and vibration of a box with an equipment or a server rack. It is commonly used for anti-vandal purposes, to send timely notifications about an attempt of unauthorized opening of an equipment box. A shock sensor can be used as well to control a vibration absence for a vibration-sensitive equipment. 

Motion Sensor

It is an infrared motion sensor which detects presence and absence of a human. It helps to track a fact of unauthorized access into a server room.

Alarm Siren

An alarm siren is designed for sound alerting about a certain event. It can be controlled through the web or via an SNMP interface of a device.

Ease of Use, Simple Integration into Existing Systems, Reliability:

Works 24 hours/ 7 Days a Week, with No Hang-ups

A device is designed for an uninterrupted operation in an unattended room in 24/7 mode. A built-in power supply supervisor protects a device from hang-ups when there are voltage fluctuations. We do not use operating systems when developing software. The entire code is written by us on a C language completely, and the code is highly optimized for the provided functionality.

An Embedded Web Server

A device is managed and configured through a browser. Specific software is not needed. Operates in any OS (Windows, Linux, Mac). 

Connecting to an Ethernet Network, a Static IP Address 

A device is connected to a common office Ethernet network, into any available port of an Ethernet switch. Having published an IP address of a device in the Internet, it is possible to manage device sockets from anywhere in the world.

2 Ethernet Ports on a Body of a Device

They allow using one port to connect a device to an Ethernet switch, and the second one as a common Ethernet port to plug any Ethernet devices, including other NetPing devices, in a chain. This can be extremely useful when all ports of a switch are already occupied: NetPing can be plugged into a switch, and a network device can be plugged into an available Ethernet port.

Authorization and Access Restriction

An access to a web interface of a device is protected with a login and password, set by a user. There is a need to authorize to get to a web interface of a device. Besides, it is possible to restrict an access to a device, having left an access from a specified IP subnetwork only. 

SNMP Support

An SNMP protocol is widely used in data collection systems for network equipment. A device supports management commands as well as receives information from sensors via an SNMP protocol. A device is easily integrated with network monitoring systems, such as Zabbix, PRTG Network Monitor, OpenNMS, Nagios, Cacti, The Dude, Monit and similar ones, which receive data on a status of sensors, connected to a device through an SNMP protocol.

Syslog Support

This protocol together with dedicated server software can be used for collecting text log files of different devices operation in a network, including NetPing devices. This can be very useful for collecting and analyzing statistics. 

URL-encoded Commands Support

A device supports sockets management and receiving information from sensors with the help of specific HTTP com
