Dependable Weather Station and Remote Monitoring Solution for Diverse Environment and Microclimate

Automatic weather station and remote monitoring data logging solutions for comprehensive understanding of biodiversity, water, air pollution, forests and ecosystems

The award-winning HOBOnet Field Monitoring System from Onset provides a cost-effective and scalable solution for web-enabled monitoring of field conditions for applications such as crop management, research, and greenhouse operations. Choose either the easy-to-deploy HOBO MicroRX Station or the highly flexible HOBO RX3000 Station as the basis of your HOBOnet System. Easily configure systems for your specific applications with HOBOnet wireless sensors or Onset's plug-and-play sensors.

HOBO MicroRX station is a compact, rugged, easy-to-deploy, low-cost cellular solution for long-term, reliable field monitoring. With two power options available (a solar panel for extended deployments or user-replaceable batteries for flexible mounting in covered or protected locations), this monitoring station includes inputs for up to five of Onset's research-grade plug-and-play sensors.
