The configurable NB-IoT/LTE-M/LoRaWAN device with four RGB buttons for instant message sending when pressed.
Designed for use as an Andon system in production, to call for help, notify for pick up materials or mark finished production.
On the front of the device are four durable buttons with LED indications for immediate feedback to the user. Actions can be marked with a customizable printed enclosure.
You can operate the device in two modes. The first distinguishes between the short and long press and the second works as a state switch.
The device runs from the mains with a backup battery and, immediately after pressing, transfers data over cellular networks (NB-IoT / LTE-M) or public/private LoRaWAN networks.
Use the HARDWARIO Manager iOS/Android app to set the behavior of each input and integrate its data from HARDWARIO Cloud.
You can utilize CHESTER Push as an ANDON system and thus enable your workers to instantly report production line problems.
By using the data acquired from the specific use of the device, you can track the utility of each production or assembly line.
In all the possible applications, CHESTER Push is the key for the significant reduction of the overall production downtime.
