Get detailed information through digital integration.

Supported Bluetooth and wired integrations provide measurements, operating states, fault information and settings. Available data and commands depend on the equipment manufacturer, model, firmware, interface and implemented integration. Additional integrations can be developed using the required interface information.

Applications

Where NaviGuard is used.

One controller type for harbour entrances, coastal sites and distributed networks. Different models can share one Emiko account.

01Harbour installations

Status and alarms from the entrance lights and harbour equipment. Port Control activates harbour entrance lights from Emiko or by SMS.

02Coastal installations

Remote status supports fault assessment and service planning before a site visit. Inspection remains part of the maintenance plan.

03Regional AtoN networks

Authorised users review every connected site in one Emiko overview, with access and identification defined per organisation.

04Battery and solar sites

Battery voltage, solar charging and supply status are followed where the connected equipment provides them. The controller is included in the power budget.

How NaviGuard works.

NaviGuard connects the agreed equipment and sends available data to Emiko for the network map, site view, alarms and history. If remote operation is enabled for the site, supported commands return through NaviGuard to the selected equipment.

The controller hardware provides two RS-485 channels and Bluetooth Low Energy 5.3. Input capacity is allocated to the signals required at the site. For Pro EM, the MID certification applies to the EM511 meter's active-energy register; Emiko reports are consumption reports based on the meter data.

Model selection

Match Eco or Pro to the required monitoring capacity. Select Pro PM for current measurement or Pro EM for 230 V energy metering. Use Port Control for harbour entrance light activation.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions.

Which connection is required?

Each lantern and its interface are identified during planning. Supported Bluetooth and RS-485 integrations provide measurements, operating states, fault information and settings; analogue and digital inputs read voltages, states and sensors. PowerMonitor (Pro PM) measures current on one 12-24 V DC lantern or RACON load.

What can PowerMonitor report?

PowerMonitor measures the current drawn by the connected load and supports current-based alarms. It does not provide the internal status, detailed measurements or settings of a lantern without a supported digital integration.

Which settings can be changed remotely?

Operating mode, nominal range, flash character and day/night switching can be adjusted where the model supports the command. The integrations table shows read and write access per lantern model.

How are alarm notifications configured?

Alarm conditions and recipients are set per organisation in Emiko. Notifications are sent by SMS and email, and the site status is available on a phone, tablet or computer.

Does NaviGuard report the position of the site?

Yes, where the connected lantern supplies GPS data through its integration. Emiko then shows the reported position with the site. NaviGuard does not measure position itself.

What is required for a NaviGuard quotation?

Lantern manufacturer and model, controller version and available interface information, plus site power, connectivity, required alarms and the settings you want to change remotely.
