SEDC Mobile Workforce vs FieldSense MeterSense

SEDC Mobile Workforce SEDC's advanced workforce automation solution enables field crews to communicate wirelessly with the office and with dispatchers to improve service response times, reduce drive times, and increase overall efficiency. With SEDC's Mobile Workforce application, field crews can view work orders in list format or on a map of the utility's service area. By selecting specific work orders, the user can drill down into the order details and workflow. When work is completed, the order can be updated directly from the field, allowing teams in the office to view the updated order in near real time. With the integrated GPS capability, truck locations will display on the dispatcher's map, enabling better routing decisions, more appropriate crew assignments, and improved response time estimates. Users should be aware that running GPS continually in the background can dramatically decrease the iPad's battery life, and care should be taken to ensure trucks have iPad charging capabilities.

The MeterSense app is a component of Connexo FieldSense, a solution for the administration, configuration and service of Honeywell smart meters. Features: Communication to Honeywell smart meters - Support for Honeywell meter families: AC250 NXS, NXU, Alpha 4, A3 ALPHA, REXUniversal. - Support for all ANSI C12 communication protocols: ANSI C12.18, ANSI C12.21, ANSI C12.22. - Local communication to Honeywell smart meters via meter’s optical port using Bluetooth. - Remote communication to Honeywell smart meters: - IPv4 for meter equipped with WAN interface (e.g., cellular modem). - IPv6 for meters connected via SynergyNet® mesh network. Meter readings: store, view, manage - View and manage list of meter readings generated by the app. - Open a stored meter readings and display all meter data in a comprehensive set of meter views. - Capture and associate meter photo to a reading (when the reading is performed over optical port). - Capture and associate meter location to a reading (when the reading is performed over optical port). Synchronize to Metercat Server via secure HTTPS interface, upon successful authentication: - Metercat Server sends to the app the data/settings authorized to the user by the Connexo FieldSense administrator (e.g., authorized functions, authorized meter programs, phone book entries, etc.). - MeterSense sends to the server the meter readings, meter locations/photos, audits logs and any other data generated by the app during operation in the field. Extensive library of meter functions - Support extensive library of functions for Honeywell meters. Integrated HTML Help - App >Help offers detailed information on app functionality and useful reference documentation for Honeywell smart-meters.
