FEATURES & BENEFITS
Mobile App
The Intelli-Connect Mobile app is available as a free download on the Apple® App Store® or Google Play*. Using the app on a smartphone or tablet, you can continuously monitor equipment and track trends and long-term information over a period of time. Intelli-Connect Mobile provides a comprehensive view of your system by monitoring runs, faults, alarms, and VFD status, including fault codes, motor voltage, current, available hoist operating life, and more.
Information At Your Fingertips
Intelli-Connect Mobile's diagnostic and analytics capabilities deliver system status information, whether you're using a smartphone or tablet, to help you manage equipment 24/7. You can get insight into how your systems operation and how your equipment is utilized to ensure proper and timely maintenance.
Improved Safety
Using Intelli-Connect Mobile, you can monitor and troubleshoot a Magnetek variable frequency drive (VFD) right from the plant floor. Intelli-Connect Mobile wirelessly connects to crane equipment located 20-100 feet in the air, allowing you to safely and quickly get an overview of your system’s operation. You no longer need to power down the crane, climb up to the drive, and connect hardware to access drive information, thus eliminating potentially hazardous situations.
Quick Troubleshooting And Recovery
Intelli-Connect Mobile provides advanced diagnostics provide critical information, such as signal monitors, equipment status, and energy use, to keep your system functioning effectively. By incorporating this technology into your overhead crane or hoist, you can proactively monitor and schedule maintenance to ensure you have the necessary parts and support available when you need it. And, if your system does go down unexpectedly, Intelli-Connect Mobile can help reduce your mean time to recover (MTTR). With instant access to user manuals available through the app, operators can easily reference system setup and diagnostics to get equipment back up and running quickly.
Secure Connection
The wireless operator connects the Magnetek VFD and your smartphone or tablet via a secure Wi-Fi connection. Set your own SSID (service set identifier) and password to establish a protected link for data flow.
