Tunnel – Introduction

MTX-Tunnel is an application running into a Java GSM module and can be defined as a SERIAL-GRPS Gateway. It is designed to be able to take readings or maintain devices from a distance by the simple connection of a RS232/RS485 series cable to the device.

Now instead of connecting your machine to the serial port of a computer, you can connect this solution device to your machine. You can control it from your home/company location as if it were physically connected.

Now you will have more tools and possibilities for related real-scenarios with remote control and remote metering. Those are input/outputs read/control, analog input reading, relay control, control over external SPI/I2C bus, remote reading of GPS position, control and configuration using SMS, WebServer, Telnet and much more.
