A complete telemetry solution for automatic utility meter reading. Available in both wired and wireless configurations, AMR integrates seamlessly with Modbus meters, pulse meters, SCADA, BMS, and Digital Twin platforms. Rugged enclosures, backup power, and modular expansion make AMR the ideal choice for large-scale building, campus, and industrial metering projects.
Key Features
Flexible Deployment Options
Choose between wired or wireless expansion, or mix both to match your site requirements.
Scalable Meter Networks
Up to 320 meters with wired RIM modules (Modbus RS-485); up to 400 meters with wireless WTX modules.
Seamless SCADA & BMS Integration
Interfaces with building management and enterprise systems via Modbus/TCP, DNP3, FTP, or email reports.
All-in-One Outdoor-Ready Solution
Supplied in a weatherproof enclosure with internal battery backup and charger, for reliable long-term operation.
Automatic Data Reporting
Generate CSV usage reports and deliver them by email or FTP. Schedule by interval or event for proactive monitoring.
Alarm & Control Functions

Web-browser configuration - no proprietary software, licenses, or ongoing fees required.
How It Works
Deploy & Install
Deploy the AMR unit in its outdoor enclosure with mains or solar backup.
Connect your meters
Choose Wired (RIM modules) or Wireless (WTX modules) to integrate pulse or Modbus meters.
Automate Logging & Alerts
Use the built-in web interface to set schedules, alarms, and reporting intervals.
Monitor & Integrate
Access reports directly or feed data into SCADA, BMS, or Digital Twins for enterprise-wide insights.
Applications
Automated sub-metering for commercial buildings, shopping centres, and campuses. Integrates with BMS and Digital Twin platforms via Modbus/TCP.
Monitor water, gas, and electricity consumption across irrigation systems and agricultural sites with automated reporting and alarm notifications.
Utility-grade metering for councils, water authorities, and regulators with DNP3 SCADA integration and full audit trail reporting.
