OPTIMIZE YOUR PROCESS WITH LTE-M1 CELLULAR WIRELESS
SignalFire’s cellular solution integrates the latest in wireless technology, allowing direct connectivity from a sensor to a cloud platform. Using LTE-M (short for LTE CAT-M1) this technology is for Internet of Things devices to connect directly to a 4G network, without a gateway, using the built-in batteries or external solar panel. Find out if there is LTE-M coverage in your area.
With the family of RANGER products & cloud interface, we offer a platform to easily and quickly deploy measurements where you need them with the least amount of hardware. We created a solution that brings sensor data right into an easy-to-use and mobile friendly cloud interface. The Ranger can be connected to your existing sensors with analog or digital outputs for monitoring parameters such as pressures, levels, flow meters, and temperatures. The Ranger comes complete with the web and mobile-friendly SignalFire Cloud interface to monitor, trend, and get alarms either by text or email.

LTE-M1 CELLULAR WIRELESS FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What's The Difference Between The Ranger & Other SignalFire Products?
The Ranger utilizes LTE M1 cellular technology to send/receive messages directly to the internet. No Gateway is required. Other SignalFire products utilize 900MHz radios for local sensor data aggregation.
What Does Cellular Connectivity Mean?
This means that the Ranger communicates directly with the cellular network to the internet. No additional field equipment is necessary.
How Do I Set-up & Configure The Ranger?
Simply log into the SignalFire Cloud and enter the devices IMEI number (serial number) to link a device with your account. All configuration changes can then be made directly from the website.
What Are The Rangers Inputs?
The Ranger has one analog input (4-20mA/1-5V) which provides power to the attached sensor. There are two discrete inputs that report input state (open/closed), total counts and input frequency.
Which Cell Tower Will This Connect to?
The Ranger utilizes LTE-M1 technology which has been rolled out in the US by Verizon, AT&T and Sprint. The Ranger will support all carriers, but will be certified for Verizon at launch.
How Do You Receive Alerts?
Alerts and delivered via text message email and are fully configurable using the SignalFire Cloud.
How Do I View My Data?
