  • LED indication for status and connection Vaisala Edge Gateway EGW501 is a data collection and transfer solution that provides platform-level security for Vaisala Beam Weather Station BWS500. The integrated radio module and optional SIM card, together with the compact design, allow for speedy installation and commissioning. Connection point for sensors EGW501 has 3 dedicated connectors for sensor-to-gateway communication, a power connector, and a connector for local maintenance connection. EGW501 supports a selected set of Vaisala sensors and third-party sensors. Data buffering and transfer EGW501 handles data transfer between the sensors and a Vaisala cloud or a third-party data collection system. Additionally, it provides data collection and storage. EGW501 buffers the observation data for transmission at regular intervals. The local buffering capacity ensures that no data is lost and there are no communication breaks. Remote update and diagnostics Because of the Internet connectivity, the gateway firmware can be updated remotely. With the remote device management and monitoring service, there is less need for site visits. Remote operations are supported with diagnostics to ensure speedy recovery from error situations. Local management In normal use, site visits are rare. When you need to visit the site to, for example, establish a direct connection to EGW501, simply connect your laptop to EGW501 using a USB‑ C cable and access the browser-based maintenance user interface. Cellular connectivity EGW501 operates as a secure gateway between the weather station and the outside world. Using the integrated radio and the optional SIM card, the data is transferred over a secured cellular connection. The data plan is available as a service from Vaisala for a range of countries. Customers can also use their own SIM card with a data plan.
