Introduction A rural community-owned Water Company needed to remotely monitor their Pumphouse providing potable water to their customers on the Olympic Peninsula of Western Washington state. Without any infrastructure for communication, the best choice was to use a cellular router connected to the controller with an embedded webserver in the remote pumphouse to allow communication for remote monitoring and programming.
