Installation and support

Plan your Modulink installation

Check your instruments, power and network before choosing terminals. Self-installation is supported, with engineering assistance available at $200 per hour; scope and hours are confirmed with your quote.

Before you configure a system

Use these questions to prepare a quote or engineering discussion. This is a planning checklist; product wiring and configuration instructions depend on your selected hardware.

  1. 1.List the points you need to monitor or control

    Record instrument model numbers, signal types, quantities and equipment locations. Include the outputs or valve actions you need, so compatibility can be checked against the terminal specifications.

  2. 2.Check power, mounting and radio coverage

    Identify available power at each terminal and the Basestation, mounting locations, cable routes and service access. Discuss obstructions and site coverage with engineering before relying on a radio connection.

  3. 3.Plan the Basestation and site network

    Identify where the shared on-site hub will run and how your team will access it. Core monitoring runs locally; live weather and external services need connectivity. Terminal outages can leave gaps in readings.

  4. 4.Define access, integrations and responsibilities

    Identify who will administer user access and backups. Describe any system that needs Modulink data, the information it needs and its interface. Review the integration scope with engineering.

  5. 5.Separate hardware, accessories and assistance

    Include sensors, probes, valves, power supplies, batteries, mounting and relay accessories in the discussion. Identify who will install and commission the system, and any engineering hours required.

Plan for your application

These planning points help scope your system. The electronic user installation and configuration guide is in preparation; request current documentation for your selected products.

Irrigation · Modulink Agri

  • Identify fields, blocks, zones and the root-zone depths or locations to monitor.
  • Select compatible soil sensors, a temperature probe and a latching irrigation valve as needed.
  • Plan terminal mounting, sensor and valve cabling, battery access and LoRaWAN coverage.
  • Provide power and a site-network connection for the Modulink Basestation. Internet access is needed for live weather and external services.

Industrial · Modulink Indi

  • List instruments, signal types and equipment to monitor or control.
  • Compare the I/O and power requirements of Indi LoRa and Indi Wi-Fi as well as site radio coverage. The two configurations have different interfaces.
  • Provide the power specified for your terminal: nominal 24 V DC for Indi LoRa, or standard 12 V or 24 V DC for Indi Wi-Fi.
  • Plan mounting, wiring and any external relay accessories. Keep existing equipment safety interlocks independent.

Hardware, accessories and costs

  • Power supplies, batteries, mounting hardware, sensors, probes, valves and relay accessories are separate line items.
  • Engineering assistance is $200/hour. Confirm the work and estimated hours with your quote.
  • Travel is additional. Customers pay shipping and applicable sales tax.

Documentation and ongoing support

Contact product support for technical or warranty assistance.

  • Customer self-installation is supported.
  • Modulink hardware includes a one-year limited warranty against manufacturing defects. Exclusions apply.
  • Remote diagnostics and over-the-air updates are supported.
  • Public specifications and the product overview are available online. Ask engineering about additional documentation for your application; the electronic installation and configuration guide is in preparation.
