INTRODUCTION4


The development and expansion of cellular networks in the last few decades hastransformed the face of industry and commerce. It allows IoT and M2M Networksto transmit real time data on field conditions. This is very beneficial, yet it also addsanother layer of technical difficulty into the installation process. From energy distri-bution to ATMs to vending machines, IoT and M2M networks provide extensivedata to central information systems. However, when the communication system integrating all these moving parts fails, the repercussions can have a costly impacton business.

Over the past few years, the term M2M (Machine to Machine) has slightly mutatedinto the broader term, IoT (Internet of Things). While this change is more of a mar-keting shift than a technological one, it speaks to the vast audience targeted. M2Mnetworks have been around for nearly a decade and will continue to grow in everyindustry they target by the millions. IoT is positioned to address both industrial andconsumer products and needs in the billions. But in the end, M2M and IoT are both

defined by the wireless cellular networkbackbones supporting them. The sameholds true for the wireless testing toolsthat installers and technicians employ.

The adage, “A chain is only as strong asits weakest link” holds true. Eventhough the daily dispatch of informationand data is no longer performed bymanual labor, these networks requirehuman oversight and maintenance toperform at peak capacity.

New companies and devices are con-stantly released into the market everyyear to address these issues. The carri-ers, computing systems, electronic datacollectors, and software all compete formarket share, and promise the most sat-isfying and reliable service. However,this is worthless if the infrastructure in

the field does not support the required signal strength and quality for reliableconnectivity. Even technology created within the last few years can be irrelevant oroutdated. Ownership and functionality of cellular towers, system upgrades or newradio signal interference can cause “state of the art” equipment to fail or performsporadically.

The Ever Changing World of M2M and IoT

How Do You Find Which Wireless Carrier The Has Best Coverage? Watch ThisSquid™ IoT/M2M Install Overview Video - https://youtu.be/ucj9cJD28OA

Here at Berkeley Varitronics we work alongside industryleaders from a wide range of companies to resolve the

daily struggles they face in real word scenarios.

THE PROBLEM 5


Do you think that there are no effective methods to determine the bestcarrier short of depending upon the bars on a cell phone?In order to accurately assess various carriers’ coverage, you’d need to be likean octopus, holding eight different phones (one for each RF band with aservice plan for each carrier) and visually comparing all the bars simultaneously for coverage.

Carrier Coverage - Who Knows?All of the carriers put out color-coded coverage maps to give con-sumers an idea of how well they cover a given area. While comparingcarriers one quickly learns that they establish geographic competitiveadvantages by strategically placing cell towers along densely popu-lated stretches, cities and areas that will maximize customer cover-age. They also tend to focus build-outs in markets where theircompetition does not have coverage.

are you really going to trust the cell phone signal strength?Trying to integrate bars on all of the carriers smart phones is not very scientific. If you are installing a M2M or IoT cellular modem connection in a smart grid application you would not likely glance at a mobile phone for the desired carrierand say: “I have 4 bars here, that should be good enough.”

When making a critical determination you need to make a scientific measurementwith a test instrument. No two cell phones will give you the same “signalstrength” let alone four! Are you going to trust this for your M2M or IoT network?Are you wiling to pay for 4 monthly plans, and the cost of the phones for every installer? Even with a good negotiated plan, it adds up month after month.

The first step in any successful cellular modem installation is verifying that themodem has a good connection back to the carrier network. Two important factors are: good signal strength and good signal quality, which make the modem deployment more reliable.

THE PROBLEM6


a poor installation affects the company’s bottom lineWhen you think of the cost of choosing the wrong carrier, one that you’vesigned a long-term contract with, the time and effort to change gets messy.Then there is the downtime of the equipment not performing at its peakwhether it is an ATM, a vending machine, charging station or parking meter. It all adds up to lost revenue.

Which carrier is the strongest? Installers of M2M and IoT cellular modems often face a daunting task that requires not only the physical and electrical connection of their equipment butalso the RF-Radio Frequency decision of determining which carrier at a givenspot has the best signal strength coverage.

With The Squid-4G Installation tool installers do not need to guesstimatewhich carrier has the best coverage. They measure actual signal strength ateach independent site toprovide the answer to thequestion at the onset. The Squid-4G streamlinesthe install process and theperformance of the finalproduct.

The antenna placement is also criticalThe position of the antenna ensures that theradio communication linkis optimal to neighboringcell towers. In some in-stances, there may beother considerations such asphysical constraints wherethe installation requiresplacement of gear on a concrete pad or perhaps a necessary electrical drop. The Squid-4G will amazeyou with its antenna placement feature (see page 10). Simply disconnect thesupplied multi-band omni antenna that comes with the Squid and select theassociated carrier on the screen you are desiring to test. You then can attachthe actual omni antenna that ultimately will be installed on the (vending ma-chine, ATM machine, electric vehicle charger…or whichever equipment youare ultimately installing). The installer can then move the antenna around tovarious points on the equipment to find where the signal strength will be opti-mum and can place it.

Select a good quality Cellular Modem

You can pay anywhere from $10 to$80 for a cellular modem, but youget what you pay for. There are manylow cost knock offs appearing in themarket but often they have majordrawbacks aside from their attractive price. Often the low costmodules have not been tested towithstand the extreme tempera-tures, vibration and shock that areoften associated with the environ-ment where M2M and IoT modemsare used whether it be up on a telephone pole or out inthe desert sun monitoring a remote oil rig. When you areintegrating a M2M or IoT cellular modem you want towork with a company that has a solid support team inplace that can assist along the way.

I have personally worked with Telit, Gemalto, and SierraWireless. They provide excellent cellular modems thatwithstand the rigors that come along with challenging in-stalls. They also provide excellent technical support. Theadage “you get what you pay for” is true.

THE PROBLEM

If all the stages of the data collection system are set up properly, the informa-tion is sent wirelessly to a cellular network, transmitted through the Internetand to a server in your monitoring station or headquarters. And all is well.But we’re talking about real life here.

Think about an iPhone signal breaking up and how a conversation gets miscommunicated. Now, think about 3,000 ATM machines “talking” to the“terminal.” That’s a challenge. The difficulty is to place these modems wherethey have the best signal coverage and strength so your stream of informa-tion from these data collectors is not lost. Add to this the challenge thatoften the ATM may have to be placed in a spot that is not ‘prime real estate’let alone in line-of-site to the closest cell tower. Often the ATM is placed in a2’ x 2’ corner down the hall where there is an empty space.


A M2M or IoT modem without a signal is sometimes more easily recognized andfixed. Whereas delayed delivery of data, or lost and irrecoverable data, causes itto just disappear. This has the potential for even more dramatic outcomes.

a bad connection can result in “corrupted” data; much like a bad or droppedphone call. Some of the information may make it through, but it may be unusable,inaccurate and incomplete.

THE PROBLEM

Do it right the first time• Save on labor

• Sign up the best carrier

• Get accurate antenna placement

• Eliminate unnecessaryservice calls

• Cost of equipmentdowntime

• Simple to use

The cost of bad connections are high because…

• human personnel is sent to the site to troubleshoot, often a truck has to ‘roll’ to the site

• signal studies may need to be done

• new equipment may need to be purchased

• hours of equipment downtime resulting in loss of revenue

Hedge your bets against lost databy doing it right the first time.

Select the strongest signal by carrierand best position of the antenna in the first place by using a test instrument such as a Squid signal meter.

THE SOLUTION

On the Squid-4G (the same steps apply toSquid PRO 3G)Power up by pressing the rollerbutton whichwill light on the front of the unit. It will takeabout 20 seconds to startup and then will au-tomatically start scanning for available carriers.This only takes about 1 to 2 minutes, it willblink green and blueuntil it has found allthe networks.

2Finding the best signal strength -When the list has filled the screen, you canpress the “list Icon” to order theRSRP signals from strongest toweakest. The carrier with thehigher negative RSRP numberhas the best signal strength (-65 is strongerthan -85). It’s that easy! (The Squid-PRO 3Gshows the lowest RSSI).

antenna Placement -To find best antenna placement, simply un-screw the omnidirectional antenna includedwith your Squid. Next, take your permanentsite install antenna and screw that directlyinto your Squid unit. Both the RSRP (4G) andRSSI (3G) screens display signal strength aslarge digits with a moving horizontal bar. Asyou move the site antenna around, the signalstrength (large font) will change accordingly toindicate the best placement. This should be

easily viewable even if you are farfrom the actual display. also note

the “peak hold” indicator. It’s a smallblack square at theend of the signal bar

showing the strongest signalrecorded since scanning began. Besure your hands are off the an-tenna while measuring signalstrength or you can get a falsereading.

THE SOLUTION

Record the exact location with our GPS functionDisplays the latitude, longitude, UTC and FIX (number ofsatellites). You will need at least 3 satellites to properlydetermine location on EarthRecord the location of every device.

More information for better decisions

Why is RSRP better than RSSI? It’s technical. What is RSRP? It is an LTE (4G) specific metric that averagesthe RF power in all of the reference signals in the passband.RSRP is the average power of resource elements that carrycell specific Reference Signals (RS) over the entire band-width, (i.e. RSRP is only measured in the symbols carryingRS. A resource element is one OFDM subcarrier for the duration of one OFDM symbol.

What about RSSI? This is an valid metric but more fittinglyused to display signal strength for 3G technologies (GSM,CDMA1X. etc.) and it integrates all of the RF power within the channelpassband. In other words, for LTE, RSSI measurement bandwidth is ALLactive subcarriers, measured in all symbols. By definition, RSSI includespower of all interference and thermal noise.

THE BENEFITS

Who advises you on installation? For example, the Sierra AirLink GX450 LTE CellModem may be the best hardware, and the Verizon cellular network map showsthe best coverage, and your team may decide on this solution. However, until now,you are at the mercy of the cellular carriers and their maps for this information.

With a single Squid hand held tool, any technician can drive to multiple sites in aday and record which network, carrier and cellular bandwidth is optimal for thatspecific location.

Remember there are:• No Monthly subscription costs• No Expensive software to purchase or lease• No Multiple devices to calibrate and maintain

Our clients regularly buy a single unit to check it out and then call us to purchaseSquids for every installation division. Now, regardless of which contractor youchoose, you can be sure your M2M or IoT installation performs with optimum efficiency and profitability.

Why Purchasing, Maintenance and Installation Departmentsrequest the Squid

Infrastructure maintenance personnel are no strangers to M2M and IoT tech-nology. The reliable electronic RF transmission of data is crucial throughout manufacturing, production, remote measurement and monitoring systems.

Using M2M or IoT technology systems is much more cost effective than tradi-tional hardwiring methods and allows you to increase functionality of older,and more expensive SCADA systems.

Pat Smith, from Data-Command (http://www.data-command.com/) sharesmany examples of the versatility of M2M networks. In one instance, a prop-erly installed M2M network cut the City’s monitoring costs for a segment oftheir water supply system in half.

The Squid Installation tool for M2M and IoT allows quick signal audits of existing installations. When performing routine maintenance checks, technicians can review signal strength and note in maintenance logs whetherthere have been changes in carrier or signal quality.

“Doing it right the first time” saves costly error alerts that send techniciansscrambling to check on remote site alarms triggered by faulty network connections…and much more.

1. Why do Purchasing Offices specify the Squid?To ensure customer satisfaction and long term profitability

2. Why does the Maintenance Department specify the Squid?More up time, fewer service calls

“One of thebiggest problems

in the M2M orIoT installationprocess is that

there are hundreds ofthousands of

cellular modemsinstalled

incorrectly, theyare not gettinggood coverage,

and now youhave to send out

crews to fix them.”

-Scott Schober

15THE BENEFITS

3. Why do The Installers specify the Squid?No more “you guys screwed up”

The installer makes the decision for any M2M and IoT network solution.New install orders, upgrades or job specs can be sent from offices far from theon-site environment. As the M2M and IoT markets expand the pressure andpace to integrate and install M2M and IoT connectivity will only increase.

How do you streamline the installation? Your bid may include an option touse 2 different carriers and you have to have the appropriate SIM chips in yourtruck. How do you make the judgment call on which carrier to select so thatthere are minimal callbacks for service?

One of the Squid’s strengths is it does not try to perform dozens of tasks. Itconcentrates on one specific segment of a M2M or IoT network installation:cellular signal detection and strength analysis.

We have heard of installers using: • Expensive subscription software that create signal “maps"• Expensive hardware to run the “signal survey” programs• Multiple mobile devices subscribed to each main carrier• Their personal or company phones to track “signal bar” strength• Purchasing up to (4) cellular modem USB sticks with (4) carrier contracts

At the top of a tower, or telephone pole, you do not have two hands free tojuggle multiple devices. By using a single display with an ergonomic handgripthe Squid eliminates the “guesswork” and provides the information to “do itright the first time.” When installers are finding optimal antenna placement ona vending machine, or ATM they can use the integrated swivel hook or magneticmount to affix directly to the equipment providing hands free operation.

M2M modems and electronic ID devices on dairycows communicate with milking equipment whenthey step into an automatic milking stall. The exactcombination of feed and supplements for that cow isdropped into a feeding trough. The machine thencleans and milks the cow, tracks the milk productionand output, sends the milk to the chiller and thatdata to the farmer. The ability to troubleshoot aproblem due to the changing conditions is a necessity and a simple task with our Squid products.

M2M makes the milk maid obsolete:

Because the Squid-PRO is a stand-alone,

hand-held tool, we were finally

able to break freeof the cumbersomelaptop computerswe had used for

years.“A huge convenience

especially if in a desolatearea or up a pole. Ourguys just walk around,get where they need to

go, and get the readings.It’s also simple to use.

Our meter techs look forthe strongest signal fromVerizon or AT&T. So far, inour experience anyway,an inspection with theSquid-PRO takes about

10 minutes, as comparedto the modem method

which took about 30 min-utes. So, we expect to get2 or 3 more installs donea day, especially during adeployment. I liked it so

much, I showed it to Silver Spring Networksfiguring it could help

their modem customers.Would recommend the

Squid to anyone.”
