Temetra GSM Logger Hosting Improvements
Better SMS rates now available through O2
We have negotiated special rates with O2 Ireland that allows us to offer excellent rates on low-volume SMS devices such as single channel GSM loggers. With no monthly charges and better pre-pay SMS rates than available elsewhere, we offer cost effective logger hosting with guaranteed service levels. 
You benefit from our experience
Over the past number of months we have installed GSM loggers in Ireland and abroad, hosting the devices on Temetra. We have now built up considerable experience on installation and configuration of the loggers, GSM antenna optimization and SMS billing using best GSM network.
Using our logger installation service and SMS hosting on Temetra, you benefit from our experience in operation, important where the number of loggers in a single network is small and local experience can be expensive to obtain.
Improved logger control
An upgrade to the logger control software available shortly will allow for better remote management of the alarms, and in the case of mains powered logger allow on-demand access to the latest logged data. Please contact Temetra for details of upgrade.
More features and improvements to Temetra Web Application
Further billing improvements
Invoice style bills can now be generated and directly loaded into Agresso. Temetra provides great flexibility regarding frequency of billing and selecting subsets of accounts for billing. This allows high-consumption accounts to be billed more frequently than small consumers. When combined with GSM loggers for meter readings, this allows automated billing for selected high value accounts.
Better logger summary page
New 'at-a-glance' summary page of your loggers allows quick summary of all logger status, including activity and GSM signal strength.
External GPS location links
For meters that have GPS locations stored, we can now provide direct links to external websites showing the meter location to street level. This is convenient when full CiS data is unavailable, or while accessing Temetra outside your internal network.
Faster menu navigation
As the Temetra web application added more features, it became necessary to make improvements to navigation within the website. It is now possible to move directly to sub-menu items, while maintaining the existing layout and navigation.
