| SENSOR This is where it all starts...Our Sensor is usually mounted on a tripod or pipe on a rooftop or can be installed on a post. The best location for the sensor is usually on a rooftop, but utimately the sensor needs to have a good view of the sky to accurately measure the static electricity of the atmosphere. The Sensor is then connected to the Lightning Prediction Unit via a Triax Cable. LIGHTNING PREDICTION UNIT - L75 MODEL THOR GUARD’s Model L75 is our first upgradeable base prediction and warning system control center. Customers can now have an entry-level system, automatic or manual, capable of providing audible and visual warning for a single site. The L75 is fully upgradeable, so that at any time in the future, you can provide warning for remote locations up to 1 1/4 miles away. HORNS / STROBES / CONTACTS Our Voice of THOR Horn System provides the ultimate in integrated lightning warning systems for outdoor areas that can be automatically or manually activated through wireless RF communication. Strobe Lights and Auxiliary Jacks for multiple interface possibilities can be installed along with each Horn Cluster. Remote Horn Clusters can be Solar Powered. DATA FORWARDING DEVICE - MOXA NPORT THOR GUARD Data comes out of the Lightning Prediction Unit via a Serial or USB Cable. Using the Serial Cable to connect to the Data Forwarding Device, now the THOR GUARD Data can be communicated to ThorPCX, Thor Guard Weather or ThorMap through the Internet or your Local Computer Network via Ethernet or Wireless. THORPCX - REMOTE ThorPCX is service software that installs on a Windows-based PC or Server. It receives incoming data from your Thor Guard system via a serial/usb cable or from over your network when data is sent via a data-forwarding device. ThorPCX can handle data from up to 100 Thor Guard sensors on your network, automatically archive storm files for later review, send email and text alerts, and make your data available for display in ThorViewer, ThorMap, and Thor Guard Weather Desktop. THORPCX - LOCAL ThorPCX is service software that installs on a Windows-based PC or Server. It receives incoming data from your Thor Guard system via a serial/usb cable or from over your network when data is sent via a data-forwarding device. ThorPCX can handle data from up to 100 Thor Guard sensors on your network, automatically archive storm files for later review, send email and text alerts, and make your data available for display in ThorViewer, ThorMap, and Thor Guard Weather Desktop. THOR GUARD WEATHER, THORVIEWER & THORMAP Thor Guard Weather can display every second of your THOR GUARD Data while being able to see your Local Weather Conditions, Forecasts, Radar and Weather Warnings.
