OilCop system architecture, both hardware and software, is designed for maximum flexibility and reliability. importantly, the OilCop incorporates independent, self-contained, proprietary software thereby eliminating the need to load software onto existing office computers, which may be subject to conflicts with operating systems, especially when these systems are upgraded over time. 

 

Reliable communication is accomplished via self-healing, wireless mesh technology that achieves maximum reliability, range and coverage. Alternately, the OilCop system can easily be hardwired in cases where wireless communication is not appropriate, nor desired. Additionally, an important feature of the OilCop Fluid Management system is the flexibility to access the system in many ways, i.e. using PC’s on a customer’s local area Network (LAN) and/or WiFi enabled laptops, tablets or smart phones, thus eliminating the need to purchase additional hardware.

 

 An OilCop system can accommodate any quantity of dispense points with virtually unlimited distance capability. The modular OilCop system can be easily configured to fit any service bay layout requirements including one reel per bay. A single Fluid Command Module (FCM) can control up to four independent dispense points that can operate simultaneously if desired. Communication speed is not degraded when multiple simultaneous dispensing operations occur since the OilCop system incorporates distributive process capability, thereby not loading down any single module. Each Fluid Command Module (FCM) has on board buffering capability and communicates independently with the Oil Cop Controller (CTR). Dispense operations, simultaneous or otherwise, can be conveniently monitored via any network office computer, smart device, technician access Console (TAC) and/or an OilCop remote LED display.
