A sprinkler system generally consists of a powerful pump – for example, the pump that pumps out the water from a ditch. When the computer indicates that the spray gun has finished with its program, the pump is expected to stop immediately.
This is done with the help of an Aquarius transmitter and an Aquarius receiver.
Aquarius M2M system
The Aquarius is programmed as a transmitter that receives a signal from the spray gun and sends it to the pump (at a distance of 700 meters!) which then directly shuts down. All this without human intervention, without the touch of a button.
This solution comes from the demand for a stable communication signal that the user can always trust. Tyro Remotes offers this guarantee with the M2M control systems based on the latest radiographic technology.
Machine-to-machine
The term ‘M2M’ or ‘Machine to Machine’ stands for the communication between machines without any human intervention.
Slurry mixing, pumping, filling-in, and separation (e.g. of stones), all this happens on the farm premises before the pump is disconnected and the slurry tank is taken to the fields. A specialized German machine manufacturer decided to make a filling station for the above-mentioned process.
Automated filling process with radio remote control
The filling station is both stationary and as well as mobile. Due to the help of a wireless M2M remote control, the filling process is fully automated.
Remotely activated slurry pump
The filling station comprises a pump that pumps out the slurry from the pit and a separator that filters it. After filtration, the pump fills the slurry in the tank. When the farmer or the contractor comes with the empty tank to the filling station, he docks the suction arm of the slurry tank to the pump. Thereafter, he activates the slurry pump with the compact hand-held transmitter. The pump starts filling the slurry into the tank.
Communication between the radio control receiver and transmitter
Once the slurry tank is full, a sensor sends an input signal to the M2M transmitter mounted on the slurry tank. This M2M transmitter then automatically with the help of wireless communication sends a signal to the M2M wireless receiver that is mounted on the pump. Once the signal is received, the pump gets turned off automatically.
No maintenance requiring cables
Without cumbersome and fragile cables, the whole filling process is wirelessly managed. This provides the user of the slurry tank the necessary time savings as he need not to monitor the filling process himself. This gives him the flexibility to go away from the pump with complete peace of mind!
Aquarius M2M system
The Aquarius/Aquarius M2M system is especially suitable for this application since the electronics of the receivers are 100% waterproof and are protected against the effects of dirt, moisture, and strong ammonia vapors. It is, therefore, an industrial wireless system that is perfect for this application.

Enhance equipment performance and streamline operations with the power of telemetry. Remote monitoring technology enables businesses to monitor and manage large, dispersed equipment fleets from anywhere. It allows you to remotely track your equipment, measure performance, and receive critical warnings and alerts. The result is maximized equipment uptime and greatly reduced field service labor and overhead costs.
By implementing a remote monitoring system, businesses can benefit from improved visibility into their operations, increased efficiency in maintenance and repair activities, enhanced customer satisfaction through faster response times, lower operational costs, and better asset utilization. Furthermore, a remote monitoring system can reduce downtime by quickly pinpointing problems with equipment before they become more significant.
Selecting the Right Remote Monitoring System
Choosing the ideal telemetry system is pivotal for ensuring seamless integration and optimal results. Consider the following factors when selecting the perfect fit for your business:
- Wireless data network coverage, cost, and longevity
- Ease of device installation and activation
- Hardware power requirements
- Scalability to accommodate future growth
- Availability of customer support resources and responsiveness
- 3rd party access to machine data through software APIs
Additionally, it is important to consider the size of your business and the type of equipment you are looking to monitor.
Implementing Remote Monitoring
Once you have chosen a remote monitoring system for your business, several steps must be taken to set it up and maintain it. Follow these steps to set up and maintain a successful implementation:
- Hardware installation and connectivity assurance
- Configuration of software features such as alarms and notifications
- Comprehensive training for sales and service personnel
- Regular system testing and performance evaluation
- Strategic planning for responding to any issues or triggered alarms
To maximize the remote monitoring system’s potential, consider the following operational tips:
- Real-time equipment performance monitoring with proactive adjustments
- Alert configuration for maintenance and repair needs
- Create user profiles for streamlined equipment data access
- Automate data collection and reporting processes to save time and effort
- Use data analysis software tools to identify operational trends
- Implement predictive maintenance protocols to reduce unplanned downtime
