Message from the CEO This quarter, much of our work has been about getting the next generation of Senquip products ready for customers. UNI is progressing towards production, our new LTO battery packs have completed certification, and the new ORB and QUAD are moving through testing for the markets in which they will be sold. …
Your level sensor might be measuring the weather. We recently tested a level sensor where the actual water level wasn’t changing – the measured level was. Overnight it moved 15 mm peak-to-peak, closely following temperature. Analysis showed a temperature dependence of approximately +1.17 mm/°C. And this was indoors, with only a 5.5°C temperature swing. Rather …
Getting ready for production means knowing how you’re going to test everything on every device made. Our production test jigs need to test every interface at the connector and exercise the sensors and communications – and they need to do it quickly and reliably, thousands of times. Every test result is logged for traceability to …
The latest SFW003 firmware update adds CAN FD message capture to the Senquip QUAD. For now, we’re keeping the claim deliberately simple: CAN FD frames with their larger data payloads can now be captured and processed by the QUAD. There’s more work underway, including more sophisticated filtering and additional CAN FD functionality, but we wanted …
You’ve been asking for more buffer space. We’ve just delivered it – SFW003-7.0.0 rewrites how buffering works, collating messages into a single file and compressing it before writing to flash. Result: ~5x more data fits in the same buffer space, fewer files on flash, faster syncing once you’re back online. Available now for QUAD-C2-G and …
Last week, our distribution partner Macquarrie Corporation identified an opportunity to make installation of a bulkhead antenna easier. If the mounting hole was made slightly larger, the FAKRA connector could pass straight through without removing the shroud. The problem was that the larger hole left too little surface for the slotted retaining nut. Their solution …
Sometimes the most interesting data is the data you weren’t looking for. We currently have UNIs living in a freezer as part of our environmental testing. While reviewing the data, we noticed the vibration measurement was unusually high. The reason is pretty obvious from the graph – we’re watching the freezer compressor cycle on and …
Sometimes the simplest tests are the most useful. When we test an enclosure at 10 metres underwater for a week, we first fill it with tissue paper marked with ink. If even a small amount of water gets in during the test, the ink runs and leaves a permanent record. No electronics. No sensors. Just …
If you use Enovation MPC10 or MPC20 controllers, you’ll know that deploying new firmware has traditionally meant connecting directly to the controller with a PC. That’s fine when the machine is in the workshop. It’s much harder when it’s hundreds of kilometres away, working on a mine site or construction project. Working with Macquarrie Corporation, …
I’d always treated cellular modules as building blocks. You choose the right one and let the manufacturer worry about everything inside the can. This year I learnt that’s not quite true. When DDR memory prices started moving, I didn’t give it much thought. None of our products use DDR, so I assumed it wouldn’t affect …
Someone used to have to drive out here just to see if this pump was running. Now your pump calls you when it needs you. Thanks to AgFlow and Macquarrie Corporation for another quality installation. Your Pump Called
For years, LTE-M (Cat-M1) and NB-IoT were expected to become the default connectivity technologies for Industrial IoT. But something interesting has happened. Over the last few years, Cat-1 bis has quietly become one of the fastest-growing IoT technologies. Why? Because it offers a very practical balance between capability and complexity. • 4G LTE coverage• Global …
When 4G arrived, it eventually replaced 3G.It is assumed 5G will do the same. It won’t. Unlike previous generations, 5G wasn’t designed to replace LTE. It was designed to complement it. 4G LTE provides the broad-area coverage layer. 5G adds capacity where higher bandwidth is required—cities, stadiums, factories and other high-density environments. Most remote telemetry …
Q2 updates from Senquip including new features, dashboard improvements, and real-world applications in remote monitoring systems.
Product reliability engineering starts by analysing every field return, identifying root causes, and designing failures out of the next generation of products.
Choosing an industrial IoT modem requires balancing global coverage, satellite readiness, long-term availability, cybersecurity, power consumption, and cost.

Continuous product improvement ensures every field issue strengthens the next generation of Senquip industrial telemetry devices.
Industrial telemetry distribution in the UK is growing through strong technical partnerships, local engineering support, and customer-focused solutions.
Measurements are easy. Useful data is harder. Most sensors will happily give you a number. But that number isn’t always meaningful on its own. Many industrial sensors are inherently non-linear. A resistive temperature sensor, for example, changes exponentially with temperature. And even when a sensor is linear, the system it’s measuring often isn’t. Take tank …
Remote machine monitoring allows engineers to diagnose, configure and support industrial equipment anywhere in the world, reducing travel and downtime.
When developing our next generation of products, we started by asking, “What was the root cause of every product return?” Our field return rate is around 0.4%, so there aren’t that many to analyse. But over time, every return has been investigated, documented and grouped into failure modes. Some were genuine hardware failures. Some were …
The real challenge is choosing a modem that will still be the right choice five or ten years from now. When developing our latest products, these were some of the factors we considered: • Global coverage• Direct-to-Cell satellite readiness• Silicon origin• Global certification• Technical support• Long-term availability• Supply chain resilience• Power consumption• Cost The outcome …

One of the biggest frustrations with Modbus! Floating point numbers. Modbus only defines 16-bit registers—it doesn’t specify how multi-register values like 32-bit or 64-bit floats should be formatted. Different manufacturers use different byte orders, leaving you with a puzzle to solve. 🔄 Big-endian or little-endian?🔄 Word-swapped or standard?🔄 IEEE 754 or custom format? If you’ve …
RS-485 is known for its ruggedness and reliability, but there’s one invisible problem that can silently destroy your devices—Common Mode Voltage (CMV). 🔍 What is Common Mode Voltage?CMV is the voltage difference between the ground of two connected devices.

Correct termination is essential for reliable CAN network performance. In a recent install on a Kenworth Truck J1939 network, the initial scope trace showed no data while the Senquip device reported CAN errors. After installing a 120 Ohm termination resistor at the Senquip device, full diagnostic data was restored.
CAN network termination is the key to a dependable J1939 communications.

After yesterdays post on the differences between RS232 and RS485, we have been asked a few times why RS485 is more noise immune. It is because RS485 uses a differential signalling method. Here’s how it works, and why it’s effective: 🔗 Differential Signalling in RS485: RS485 uses two wires to carry a pair of signals that …
RS232 and RS485 are standards for serial interfaces that each specify the transmission media and a defined set of logic levels, data rates and timings. These are some of the oldest serial interfaces around, yet they are still very widely used in control and measurement equipment, mainly due to their simplicity and low cost. RS232: …

Senquip devices can power external sensors even when input power is disconnected. The QUAD can generate an output voltage from 5V to 25V, and the ORB 12V; both from the internal 3.7V backup battery.
