LINC Node - IoT Gateway

Introduction

LINC Node is a small, rugged, programmable Internet of Things (IoT) gateway that extracts locally available data from intelligent airfield ground lighting devices and delivers it to your instance of CORTEX Service, ADB SAFEGATE's cloud solution for airside asset management. It enables connectivity of existing infrastructure and initiates your Airside 4.0 journey.

Uses

LINC Node provides an interface for airports to consult intelligent AGL device information from anywhere at any time on any device with internet connectivity (tablet, mobile phone).

It can be used for the following applications:

CCR Connect

• Insulation Resistance Monitoring and trending

• CCR Status monitoring (temperature, step, output, etc.)

• Open circuit alarms

PAPI Connect

• Glide Angle trending and alarm

• Horizontal Angle trending and alarm

• Red/White LED alarm

• Heater fault alarm

• Temperature trending

*Please consult the datasheet for device compatibility.

Having this information readily available on a portable device reduces the amount of time spent driving on site to collect the information that is already there. Getting immediate alerts on the smartphone in case of an operational problem reduces the response times to fix the issue.

Benefits

• Reduced personnel movement time

• Information ready at hand anytime, anywhere

• Improved maintenance cycles

• Historical trending

• Automated work orders

• Alarm notification on mobile devices via e-mail or Microsoft Teams message

LINC Node uses CORTEX Service to visualize the data, gather useful insights and streamline workorder administration: CORTEX Service microsite
