Shuttle: Manual Option
The Shuttle option is similar to that of Bluetooth from an operational point of view. The main difference is that a wireless hand-held logger, called a Shuttle, is used to collect data from the probe instead of a Bluetooth-enabled mobile device. An RF connection is used instead of Bluetooth technology. The Shuttle retains soil moisture and temperature data collected by the operator. To send this data to the cloud, it must be connected to a laptop or desktop with an internet connection. Once data is uploaded to the cloud, it can be viewed using soil moisture management software (such as ACWEB).
This option is ideal for remote farms where there is limited to no cellular coverage.
