USCC Press Release
INDUSTRIAL TELEMETRY, INC. TO DEMONSTRATE WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORK AT U.S. COMPOSTING COUNCIL’s 14th ANNUAL CONFERENCE AND TRADE SHOW
 COLLINSVILLE, Oklahoma, (January 18, 2006) Industrial Telemetry, Inc. (ITI), a supplier of wireless MESH networked applications to the industrial marketplace, today announced that it will demonstrate its BioMESH™ System at the US Composting Council’s 14th Annual Conference & Trade Show in Albuquerque, New Mexico, on Wednesday, January 25, 2006. The demonstration is sponsored by the USCC and will be held at the Albuquerque City compost site. The BioMESH™ System includes unique wireless MESH radio equipped temperature probes which enable operators of large composting facilities to monitor and then regulate the internal temperature of compost.
BioMESH™ System
The BioMESH™ System uses an ITI developed software application to monitor temperature probes that are inserted into piles of composting material in various locations throughout a facility. The temperature probes integrate temperature sensors with radio modules in sealed, weather proof, caustic proof housings. The radio modules utilize a patented wireless MESH communications protocol to support connectivity to the temperature sensors. The probes operate on battery power and features a scheduled "sleep" mode to provide extended battery life. Since each BioMESH™ probe has the ability to act as both a temperature sensor transmitter and as a repeater for temperature signals from other probes, the probes all act together to help get signals through to the monitoring application.

SCADAMESH™ ISA West Press Release
Industrial Telemetry, Inc. Presents
The SCADAMESH™ System with REALMESH™ Radios
And the SCADAMESH™ 424 device.

at ISA WEST May 2-3 in Long Beach California
SCADAMESH™ is a revolutionary concept and a patent-pending family of products for the Industrial and Water and WasteWater worlds. ITI’s REALMESH™ radios make it all possible.
ITI has combined a patent pending PLC on a Chip™ with an on-board processor and memory, and mounted them on the same 12-24VDC line-powered board with a patented REALMESH™ radio, in an industrial DIN housing. The SCADAMESH™ 424 supports 4-20mA in and out, 0-5V in and out, 0-10V in and out. Digital supports 110V AC in or out, and 12-24VDC in or out.

SCADAMESH™ 424 BOARD WITH
REALMESH™ RADIO | A REALMESH™ (Real Multi-point Enhanced Signal Handling) radio is one which combines transceiver capabilities with “repeater” functionalities in a single device, while supporting connectivity to analog and/or digital input or output. The result of deploying a series of SCADAMESH™ 424 devices with REALMESH™ radios is that each supports 4 analog in, 2 analog out, 4 digital in or out and “helps” the others get control messages from point of origin to destination without the need for out-dated separate repeaters and routers, or having to go back to a base station or SCADA system with every message, unless desired. If a base station is utilized, it can also be used as a gateway device to the internet, or be polled by an existing SCADA system.
REALMESH™ radios utilize a patented, true peer-to-peer MESH networking protocol, with every device being a repeater and a transceiver. When a new SCADAMESH™ device joins the network, it actually strengthens the overall performance of the entire REALMESH™ radio network by adding yet another series of supported IO points and an extra repeater/router to enhance network throughput performance. Future products from ITI will involve, and support, a higher ratio of I/O to REALMESH™ radios.
By adding the PLC on a Chip to the same board, efficiencies in space and execution are obtained. By adding a processor and memory, external to the PLC or the radio, but on the same board, we achieve our patent-pending ability to store the PLC’s ladder logic source code at the point of the PLC, while it executes its compiled code version. Because the PLC and our SCADAMESH™ local processor are both connected and on-board, any ladder logic changes can be made almost instantly, and therefore minimizes PLC downtime.
Further, by storing the companion PLC ladder logic source code in the local memory, we can poll that on-board memory without interfering with any PLC processes, and obtain a current Validated copy of the existing source code.
Since this polling can be done in real time from wherever there is secure access to the system, it eliminates errors and guesswork as to how a given PLC is programmed. SCADAMESH™ also supports immediate PLC code changes if desired. With our sophisticated I/O Mapping software, we do everything from overview to drill-down, and re-programming on the fly.
