Remote monitoring of sensors and detectors with relay control
The HW group Poseidon2 3268 is a compact LAN monitoring and control device for sensors, detectors and digital inputs/outputs. It supports up to 8 sensors via 1-Wire UNI/1-Wire as well as up to 4 detectors on digital inputs. In addition, the Poseidon2 3268 controls 2 digital NO/NC relay outputs and up to 8 virtual digital outputs (VDO) on remote Poseidon2 or Damocles2 units (M2M).
Configuration is performed via the integrated web server. For remote monitoring over the Internet, any SensDesk Technology portal can be used in combination with the SensDesk Mobile app for iOS and Android. The device also works with HWg-PDMS and HWg-Trigger and uses secure M2M protocols (HTTPS, IPv6, SNMPv3). Thanks to support for more than 50 SNMP and SCADA applications, the Poseidon2 3268 can be integrated into a wide range of existing monitoring and control systems; the MQTT protocol additionally enables connection to IoT solutions.

Practical application examples
- Remote monitoring of environmental values in control cabinets, server rooms or data centres
- Remote I/O control and monitoring over Ethernet
- UPS / standby power system monitoring
- Industrial applications
- HVAC monitoring
- Refrigerator and freezer monitoring with alarm indication
- Security and surveillance systems
- Smart buildings
Practical example: In a server cabinet the Poseidon2 3268 monitors the ambient temperature via a 1-Wire UNI temperature sensor and the door contact via a digital input. When a threshold is exceeded the device automatically switches a relay output to activate a fan and simultaneously sends an e-mail and an SNMP trap to the system monitoring. If no further alarm path is desired on the same LAN, a virtual output (VDO) can additionally be used to activate a relay on another Poseidon2 device on the network when critical values occur.
Frequently asked questions
What is the HW group Poseidon2 3268 and what is it used for?
The Poseidon2 3268 is a LAN-based monitoring and control device for sensors, detectors and digital inputs/outputs that can be remotely operated via the integrated web server or a SensDesk portal. It is particularly suitable for technical rooms, server rooms, data centres and industrial environments.
What is the difference between the two sets?
Set 1 "Poseidon2 3268" is the base unit without accessories. Set 2 "Poseidon2 3268 Tset" additionally includes a 3-metre temperature sensor, a door contact and a matching power supply. The desired variant is selected above the shopping cart.
How many sensors and digital inputs/outputs can be connected?
Up to 8 1-Wire UNI/1-Wire sensors can be connected via two RJ11 ports. In addition there are 4 digital inputs with pulse counting function, 2 relay outputs and up to 8 virtual digital outputs (VDO) for controlling other HWg devices.
What are virtual digital outputs (VDO)?
Virtual digital outputs are up to 8 outputs that can be assigned to physical relay outputs of other Poseidon2 or Damocles2 devices on the same LAN. This allows an alarm on the Poseidon2 3268 to directly trigger a relay on a remote device (M2M communication, Box2Box).
How are SMS or call alarms sent?
The Poseidon2 3268 does not have its own GSM/LTE modem. SMS and call alarms are possible either via the HWg-Trigger software with an external GSM modem or via an HWg-SMS-GW3 gateway on the same LAN; alternatively SMS and voice-call alarms can be sent via a SensDesk portal.
How is the Poseidon2 3268 powered?
By default via 9–30 V DC through a barrel jack or terminal block. Power over Ethernet (PoE) and a -48 V version are available as options. A matching power supply is included only in the Tset package; for the base unit it must be obtained separately.
How many records does the internal logger store?
The integrated logger stores more than 250,000 records of the digital inputs and outputs (DI, DO), independently of an active portal or network connection.
What security features does the device offer?
The Poseidon2 3268 supports HTTPS-encrypted configuration, SNMP v1 and v3 as well as IPv6 and is designed for secure M2M communication between HWg devices.
