REMORA SFL-2 · SERIAL FIELD LOGGER

Leave it connected.
Read the logs later.

The SFL-2 records two serial ports to internal storage for days or weeks, with no laptop attached. When the fault finally shows up, the log is there.

Planned price $299

Pre-orders open January 2027

WHAT IT DOES

One job,
done properly.

Record serial output unattended, then give you plain files to work with.

STORAGE

8 GB

Industrial eMMC.
No SD card.

Keeps a rolling history on built-in storage. The oldest data is overwritten first, or capture stops when full.

Days to months, depending on traffic¹

INPUTS

2 channels

Isolated inputs.
One timebase.

Log a processor and its modem side by side. Each input has its own isolated ground and is receive-only in hardware.

TTL · RS-232 · RS-485/422

LOG FILES

.txtplain text

Plug in USB-C.
Copy the files.

The logs appear as a read-only USB drive with timestamped text files. Use grep, your editor or your own scripts.

No account, no cloud, no special viewer

¹ About 53 hours with both channels saturated at 115,200 baud, much longer with typical console traffic. All figures are design targets and will be confirmed on production hardware.

IN USE

Set it up,
then leave it.

Typical cases: a device that resets once a week at a customer site, an overnight soak test, a problem nobody can reproduce in the lab.

HOW IT WORKS

Connect. Leave. Read.

No software is needed to capture. You only need a computer to change settings or read the logs.

01

Connect

Set the interface and voltage level with the switches. Wire RX and ground, then power it.

02

Leave it running

Power it from USB-C or 9–30 V DC. Both channels are recorded against the same clock.

03

Read the logs

Plug in USB-C and open the files. Find the reset or the error, and what came before it.

ABOUT US

Made by embedded engineers, for embedded engineers.

15+
years in embedded development
CH
designed in Switzerland

We are embedded engineers based in Switzerland, with more than 15 years of experience developing embedded software and hardware.

A lot of that time went into tracking down faults that only show up in the field: at a customer site, in a machine, never on the bench. The usual workaround is a laptop left behind with a serial terminal open. It works until the laptop goes to sleep, the USB adapter drops out, or someone needs the laptop back.

The SFL-2 is the tool we wanted in those situations: small, robust, and simple enough to install and forget until you need the data.
