ES-Net
Current model
The base model in the ES series. It has no screen. It is a three-axis MEMS accelerometer seismometer. Connect USB Type-C power and join Wi-Fi, and it measures and sends data in real time.
Product overview
ExpTech designs the ES series seismometers, and provides the apps and tools for setting up a station, updating firmware, and reading data. This section covers what each product is for, its specifications, and the steps to use it. It is written for people who already have a seismometer, or who want to understand one. After an ES series seismometer is networked, it becomes a station on TREM-net (the TREM seismic network), which ExpTech built.
Products
Section titled “Products”ES-Pro
Current model
Measurement matches ES-Net. It also has an OLED screen and a buzzer, so you can see this unit’s seismic intensity, acceleration, and waveform on the device.
QuakeWatch-Pro
Open source · Python
Companion software for a computer. Connect the seismometer over USB Type-C to show the three-axis waveform, spectrum, acceleration, and instrumental seismic intensity in real time.
Firmware updates and recovery
ExpTech Home · USB tool
For a normal update, use the ExpTech Home app over Bluetooth. If the seismometer will not boot, or you need to flash it again, use the USB recovery tool.
After you have a seismometer
