Easy to Apply Wireless Modules Go Where Other Systems Can’t.

The Banner SureCross Wireless System is a radio device network with integrated I/O
that can operate in extreme environments while eliminating the need for costly wiring
runs. The most basic SureCross network includes a Gateway system controller and one or
more Nodes that monitor and/or control I/O in remote locations. Nodes are easily deployed
throughout a facility, for gathering data to be concentrated at the Gateway. Installation is
fast and easy with exible mounting and power options. Nodes can be either line-powered
(10 to 30V dc) or FlexPowered with multi-year battery life providing power for communications
and to external sensors.

The Gateway can act as a master device in a star topology autonomously controlling
input to output mapping, or a Modbus Slave in a host control system using RS-485 Modbus
RTU. To relay mapped I/O longer distances, a Gateway can be positioned between two
Nodes to increase transmission range of the network.

SureCross is distinctly superior to conventional wireless networks, facilitating sensing
and actuation on the same network. Not to mention its ability to transmit the status of
each I/O point and continuously monitor the health of each Node’s operational status and
signal integrity.

SureCross™. Purpose-built by Banner.

Courtesy of Steven Engineering, Inc. ● 230 Ryan Way, South San Francisco, CA 94080-6370 ● General Inquiries: [phone] ● www.stevenengineering.com

While wireless monitoring is far from new, Industry has had to wait patiently for robust
bidirectional network devices that oer a feature set designed specically to meet the demands of
manufacturing, processing and challenging commercial applications.

The wait is over.

Banner designed and built the SureCross network using over 40 years of application expertise and
sensor innovation. Unlike other wireless devices, Banner started with the high-performance needs of
Industry and developed a system that meets those needs. The result is a superior network with exclusive
features, engineered and built by the sensor experts trusted worldwide.

Integrity Assured

In industrial applications, there can be no compromise for truly robust, secure
communication that ensures system operational integrity. That’s why Banner built its
own RF model based on essential sensing requirements with bidirectional Rx/Tx
communication capabilities.

True wireless operation means integrated power not only for communications, but
also for operating the attached sensor. Banner developed an innovative FlexPower™
solution that oers years of continuous operation. Innovation in wireless power
management combines ideally with Banner’s ability to design advanced sensors that
consume less power. SureCross also accommodates DC line, battery or solar power for
complete application exibility.

SureCross represents a quantum leap in wireless capabilities with deterministic
response—a system that lets you define actions and system responses to
communication interruptions or failures. Each SureCross device features a bidirectional
transceiver to fully acknowledge data transmission. The Gateway directs Nodes in the
network to respond with specic actions to a communication failure by driving user­dened outputs to a default condition. Once the RF link is re-established, the network
automatically returns to normal operation.

SureCross uses a Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) transmission
method to minimize radio interference, ensuring that the message gets
through and providing integral security. Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA)
slots provide guaranteed bandwidth to each connected Node. Polling and Site
Survey capabilities ensure communication integrity. SureCross oers both 900 MHz
and 2.4 GHz models, allowing you to deploy advanced wireless capabilities
anywhere in the world.

Robust. Reliable. Secure.

The SureCross network uses a Frequency
Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) methodology in
either the 900 MHz frequency band or 2.4 GHz
frequency band. FHSS architecture periodically
“hops” in a random sequence from frequency to
frequency. This technique not only prevents
interference from competing RF signals, it also
enhances security. Multiple user-selectable hop
codes are easily congured by setting the Network
ID using a convenient rotary switch. FHSS innovation
also enables multiple SureCross networks to coexist
within range of one another.

To further ensure reliable communications,
SureCross uses Cyclical Redundancy Checking (CRC)
of both data message acknowledgement and data
error checking to verify message receipt and data
integrity. If the Gateway does not accurately
receive a data packet, the Node resends that
packet until a transmission is successful. Finally,
communication is enhanced through TDMA,
ensuring each Node a time slot for transmission.

GATEWAY

Tests Signal Integrity Locally.

Every SureCross network includes an embedded Site Survey
feature. The Site Survey which is conducted between the Gateway
and each Node, is a fast, simple and reliable way to ensure that
every device is installed for optimal RF performance. Signal results
are displayed in a red, green, yellow and missed format. Identied
using a ashing LED of the corresponding color and an alpha
character on the LCD screen, green, yellow and red indicate
successful data transmission. No ashing LED and an M on the
LCD indicates a missed packet has occurred and the data was not
received successfully on the rst transmission. The message is
resent until it is received successfully.

Green = Excellent

Yellow = Good

Red = Marginal

Missed = Data not received on the rst transmission

Designed for Process Applications.

Process Control and Monitoring

Monitoring and control in processing applications are limited only by
imagination. From tank levels to line pressure, from temperature to voltage—
anywhere along the line, the versatile SureCross™ Wireless Network can be deployed,
scaled and redeployed. Adding new Nodes or establishing multiple networks
within the same environment is turnkey. Bidirectional transmission with reliable
performance capabilities make SureCross the rst robust wireless network suited for
a host of process applications.

The SureCross Wireless Network features a congurable default output condition
that denes what happens if the system loses the RF signal. This unique network
characteristic lets you dene how all outputs on the network respond to a communication
interruption or failure. The network can automatically return to normal operational
status as the RF link is re-established.

A SureCross Gateway can be positioned as a repeater to increase the transmission
range. Data can be consolidated and monitored from a central location, enhancing
production decision-making and response.

Wireless Monitoring Retrot in a Pre-Certied Facility

New regulations in a pharmaceutical production facility stipulate the
liquid level of all uids must be closely monitored and logged. SureCross
Nodes with FlexPower™ and Banner U-GAGE® QT50U analog sensors
quickly and easily facilitate this monitoring requirement without new
construction and hardwiring.

Applications

EXAMPLE APPLICATIONS

Motor Temperature Monitoring and Control

Monitoring motor temperature in a high-friction application is controlled by
a line-powered SureCross Node and a Banner T-GAGE® temperature sensor.
The SureCross Gateway transmits operational conditions to the plant control
room using a digital output related to temperature setpoints within the
sensor. The motor is powered down or up based on these temperatures.

Monitoring of Rotating Equipment

The SureCross wireless network eliminates complexities associated with
data acquisition from rotating and moving machinery such as a rotating
kiln. Crucial temperature data is acquired using a thermocouple and
transmitted from the FlexPowered SureCross Nodes to a remote Gateway
in the plant’s control center. Excessive heat triggers an alarm. Data is
always concentrated in the same location for processing or analysis, and
physical risks to personnel are eliminated.

Remote and Tank Farm Monitoring

Monitoring levels, pressure, ow rates or temperatures from dicult-to­access platforms, towers and large tank farms has historically been a
signicant challenge. Today, FlexPowered SureCross Wireless Nodes
equipped with low-powered sensors can monitor and acquire data
remotely, overcoming logistical hurdles and eliminating risk to personnel.

EXAMPLE APPLICATIONS

The Gateway to Error-Proong Manufacturing.

The Banner Wireless Network is the cost-eective
key to making existing manufacturing facilities and
process tasks align with ecient lean production
principles. Hosts of Wireless Nodes can be deployed
across the production oor to add new remote
monitoring and control capabilities to existing
machinery, as well as to implement systems that
optimize inventory, reduce errors and minimize waste.

At the heart of lean production is the ability to
make small changes and renements. Lean is not a
single solution, but a combination of small steps that contribute to continuous
improvement. The versatile Banner Wireless Network oers the ability to quickly
implement, move, change, expand and rene processes as your needs change.

Where new wiring for power or communications is impractical, a Banner Wireless
Network can be implemented with battery-driven FlexPower™ Nodes that provide
both power for connected or integrated sensors, as well as communication to a
remote Gateway. Now entire error-proong and monitoring systems become portable
for redeployment at will, and installing sensors in locations and on equipment is now
possible where never before.

Banner Wireless Nodes and Gateways reliably orchestrate Banner EZ-LIGHT™
pick-to-light sensing systems to virtually eliminate human error from parts picking
and assembly processes. Wireless parts-call automation keeps line inventories
replenished and saves oor space. Manufacturing, assembly, kitting and verication
processes run more eciently with greatly reduced errors.

Rotating Equipment Monitoring

Battery-powered Banner Wireless Nodes remotely transmit data without hardwired power
cables to monitor and control rotating machines while eliminating costly and cumbersome
slip rings.

Automated Parts Call

Remote, self-contained push buttons attached to Banner Wireless Nodes can be placed at
assembly line workstations to signal a Wireless Gateway-equipped automated guided vehicle
(AGV) for replenishment of assembly parts.

Error-Proong Manufacturing

Applying lean manufacturing principles in existing assembly facilities is easily and economically
facilitated by Banner EZ-LIGHT operator indicator lights and pick-to-light systems applied across
a Banner Wireless Network.

Monitoring operational status
in critical systems such as barn

ventilation or temperature control
equipment can prevent loss of
livestock or spoilage of other
resources that can occur within
minutes of a power loss. A
SureCross™ Wireless Node
equipped with FlexPower™
and a ow sensor is isolated
from the power grid to
monitor system status, issue
alarms and notications,
and/or to trigger backup
power systems to restore
environmental conditions.

Remote and Field-Based Monitoring is Now a Reality.

Field-based agribusiness and water management applications have long suered

from the inability to monitor operational status, levels, temperature and other crucial
information. Now the convergence of the powerful SureCross™ Wireless Network and the
longevity of SureCross FlexPower™ supplies provide easy-to-apply solutions to the toughest
monitoring challenges.

A host of SureCross antennas, power options, connectivity solutions and a complete range of
sensors oer capabilities never before available. Solutions can be easily integrated within, or provide
output to, existing operations and management software.

Banner has taken the robust RF performance and bidirectional Rx/Tx communication capabilities of
SureCross to deliver the rst practical, wireless network for monitoring and control. FHSS communication
protocol plus fully-acknowledged data transfer provide unprecedented communications reliability, but
only Banner’s congurable default output condition can provide the predictable response needed for critical
control applications. With congurable default output conditions, your system’s response to wireless signal
interruption is in your control, allowing an actuator, valve or similar device to engage, disengage or hold—
returning the system to a known status and/or triggering other system events
until transmission integrity is re-established.

Rugged IP67 SureCross Nodes are built to perform in the most severe
environments and outdoor locations, including agricultural and agribusiness
applications. Temperature extremes, dust, moisture and remote locations
demand rugged, self-contained monitoring solutions. And SureCross solutions
are built to handle it. Continuous, reliable monitoring of resources, status,
temperature, ow, levels and more help to optimize ag-based operations and
maximize yields while reducing losses and waste.

A More Dependable and Rugged Sensing Solution for the Demands
of Trac Management.

Applications

Conventional embedded solutions for trac management
and control, such as fragile inductive loop detection (ILD) systems,
are signicantly prone to failure. High failure rates associated with
ILD systems not only create inaccurate data that can lead to
inecient trac management, but make frequent and dicult
replacement of in-pavement inductive loops and weakened
pavement integrity a harsh reality.

Banner SureCross™ Wireless Networking greatly improves the
performance and reliability of embedded trac management and
control sensors. By doing away with the fragile inductive loop,
installation, service and operational life are exponentially increased.

Instead, ILDs are replaced by a wireless Banner M-GAGE™ sensor and integrated
FlexPower™ battery supply, encapsulated in a rugged IP67 SureCross Node housing.
The M-GAGE vehicle detection sensor is a passive, non-contact magnetic receiver that
reliably detects 3-dimensional changes in the Earth’s natural magnetic eld caused by
the presence of large ferrous objects.

The SureCross Wireless M-GAGE sensor replaces inductive loop systems and can
be used in applications such as car wash entry/exit, opening and closing high-trac
doors and detecting vehicles at drive-thru systems and turn lanes. This dedicated
solution—developed specically for wireless presence sensing—simplies in-ground
installation and oers quick and easy access for battery replacement after up to ten
years of trouble-free operation.

EXAMPLE APPLICATIONS

Automated Car Wash Detection

Vehicle presence is detected by an in-ground embedded M-GAGE Wireless
Sensor Node that activates the automated car wash system to power up
and trigger the entry door. The payment system and the car wash remain
in a low-power consumption standby mode until a customer arrives. It also
eliminates the inevitability of complex and costly inductive loop repair.

Loading Dock Occupancy Monitoring

For optimum workow and loading dock trac management, it’s
essential for dock workers to know of arrivals immediately. M-GAGE
Wireless Sensor Nodes mounted on each loading bay signal the arrival of
vehicles by illuminating remotely mounted Banner EZ-LIGHT™ indicators
that are visible throughout the facility. Supervisors can also be alerted to
arrivals using their PC or PDA. Workers assemble quicker at the appropriate
dock, cargo security and facility access are greatly enhanced and docks
are freed-up faster. Best of all, no through-wall wiring installation is
required to implement the system.

Parking Kiosk Access and Control

An embedded M-GAGE Wireless Sensor Node detects approaching
vehicles to activate automated parking control systems, payment kiosks
and automated access control barriers.

Train Yard Marshalling

Rugged IP67 M-GAGE Wireless Sensor Nodes embedded at various points
in tracks can be used for accurate remote monitoring of train car location
and marshalling. As cars pass from one sensor to another at changeover
locations, track controls can be activated to handle switching of
subsequent cars.

create a completely portable system that is sensing unplugged. Systems can be
expanded as needed, and networks can be combined or divided as needs change.

Continuous, reliable facilities monitoring—whether for security, operational
eciency or condition—ensures smooth operation 24/7/365. Rudimentary security
and access challenges can be quickly addressed with any number of photoelectric
proximity sensors, contact closures, switches and detection sensors that, when
connected to a Node, can communicate wirelessly to the
Gateway in facility control centers or security oces.

ENGINEERED APPLICATIONS

SureCross™ Congured Kit

This application employs two NAMUR proximity sensors that interface with the FlexPower Node. Based on the power consumptive properties of
the sensors and the required sample interval of 250 milliseconds it was calculated that the DX81 FlexPower supply would last one year. Banner is
continuously building a library of characterized sensors from dierent manufacturers to make FlexPower solutions plug-and-play.

This application employs a congurable Gateway, a FlexPower Node and a 10 to 30V dc Node. The Gateway provides two functions: rst to
determine the appropriate valve control actuation and second, to extend transmission range for the application up to 6 miles. The FlexPower
Node is located in a remote location without access to power and cycles periodically to collect ow data for media. Based on this data, the
Gateway dictates the open and close action of the valve to the output on the 10 to 30V dc Node, which is located on the valve.
