Handheld Management Terminal – Centralized Card Management for Smart Irrigation Systems
Shandong Jintian's Handheld Management Terminal is a portable, high-performance management device designed to serve as the administrative hub for RF card-based irrigation control systems. This handheld terminal enables water authorities, village managers, and agricultural cooperatives to manage user cards, process payments, and oversee irrigation data directly in the field – without the need for a computer or fixed infrastructure. It is a complete billing and access control station that fits in the palm of your hand.
Why the Handheld Management Terminal?
In many rural irrigation systems, the pump controllers are installed in the field, but card management and user billing remain administrative tasks. The Handheld Management Terminal bridges this gap, bringing centralized management directly to the point of use – the village or the farmland itself. It works seamlessly with Shandong Jintian's all-in-one installation controllers, RF card irrigation control boxes, and user cards, forming a complete, village-wide irrigation management system.
Key Features & Benefits:
-
All-in-One Card Management – Performs all essential card operations: card issuance (account opening), recharge (water or electricity purchase), user card reading, setup card creation, management card creation, inspection card creation, and data statistics.
-
Large-Scale System Management – Manages up to 50,000 RF card irrigation control devices and supports issuing/management of up to 50,000 RF cards – suitable for large irrigation networks serving entire counties or regions.
-
PC-Free Operation – Built with a high-performance microcomputer, LCD display, and tactile keypad, the terminal operates independently – no computer, internet connection, or external power supply required. This makes it ideal for rural areas where IT infrastructure may be limited.
-
Intuitive Menu Interface – Two simple operation menus provide all management functions:
-
Menu 1: Card issuance (account opening), recharge, read user card, create setup card
-
Menu 2: Create management card, create inspection card, set clock, set village code
-
Real-Time Card Information – Read any user card to instantly view remaining balance, usage history, and other card data – allowing transparent and timely management.
-
Data Recording & Statistics – Automatically records all recharge transactions and usage data within the management area, facilitating accurate financial reporting and usage analysis.
-
Extended Battery Life for Field Use – Ultra-long standby time of up to 15 days without recharging, designed specifically for use in field environments where power outlets may not be readily available. This saves water managers significant time and eliminates location constraints.
-
Durable Construction – Built to withstand the demands of rural agricultural environments.
-
Complete System Integration – The Handheld Management Terminal, together with Shandong Jintian's RF card irrigation control devices and user cards, forms a complete, efficient RF card-based irrigation management and control system.
