Cheetal FMS Lite
Live dashboards, alarms, trends and notifications — on a pre-installed industrial appliance
A compact industrial monitoring system for departments, utility rooms, warehouses, cold rooms, pump rooms and selected production areas. Supplied pre-installed on Linux-based industrial hardware with built-in alarm engine, historical trends, web dashboard and inbuilt SMS/Email notification — ready for configuration on day one.
Overview
FMS Lite is a department-level SCADA and monitoring system from Cheetal Technology, supplied as a pre-installed industrial appliance — software, license, system services and database initialized and ready for configuration.

It connects to meters, sensors, PLCs, gateways and panels over Modbus, SNMP and MQTT; displays live values on a web dashboard; logs historical trends; applies alarm rules; and dispatches SMS / Email notifications through inbuilt channels. Optional add-ons extend the system with consumption dashboards, scheduled reports, machine status and Natural Language Query.

Inbuilt SMS & Email Alerts
Notification engine, recipient groups and severity routing are included in the appliance. SMS uses an external GSM modem (supplied separately) plugged into the appliance; Email uses your SMTP relay.
Historical Trends & Logging
Built-in time-series logging for every monitored point. Operators can review trends, compare time ranges and analyze events directly in the browser — no external historian required.
Remote Support Service
Secure remote assistance from Cheetal engineers for configuration help, troubleshooting and minor adjustments — available as part of the deployment package or AMC.
