Locally collect / analyze slow serial data from Lufkin Well Manager 1.0 generation devices then transmit rapidly
The technology of older devices such as the Lufkin Well Manager was great in its day, but their slow serial communication hogs bandwidth of new high speed networks. The High Frequency Data Collector solves this problem by polling the data locally, performing desired analytics, and then communicating the data at much higher speeds. This frees up network resources while providing high frequency data.
Each High Frequency Data Collector will initially function as a Modbus/TCP Gateway, allowing Modbus TCP data requests to be sent via serial port to the older serial device. Response data is received by the Edge Device, translated to a Modbus TCP response packet and returned via ethernet.
Next, this Edge Computing Device would poll the older serial device at high frequency and process it to meet operators changing needs. This could be simple averaging, performing standard deviation calculations including identifying anomalies, or just collecting massive data for remote data analytics. This device also has MQTT capability, a recent substantial improvement for transferring data and providing notice of events.

Smartphone Monitoring
- The Local HMI display is also shown on the WX100 webpage that features actionable buttons just like the WX100. This allows:
- Monitoring realtime information on average pumping speed, PIP, etc
- Review historic information
- Start / Stop high frequency data collection
