Chapter 1: Introduction

B&B Electronics iCaddy is a serial data collection device that uses the Internet to automatically deliver your data. Data is emailed or sent using FTP based on a user-programmable schedule or when its buffer level is reached or based on a digital alarm input.

It replaces local or long distance phone calls with an automated Internet connection to your Internet Service Provider. Instead of calling out to remote sites, let the DCDSS1 deliver the data to you, virtually anywhere, anytime!

Once installed, there is no need for human presence at the remote site. You can download cash receipts at midnight or track distant conditions at any time. The DCDSS1 works with a modem to call a local ISP near your remote location. User-friendly software with easy-to-read screens allows you to set automatic call-ins from multiple locations. You can change call-in times and data requests at any time from your central PC.
