Abstract: A system for remotely operating endpoint devices, such as valves for utility services, comprises a server, one or more network access hubs, and one or more endpoint devices. The network access hubs communicate with the server through a network and communicate wirelessly with the endpoint devices. The network access hubs transmit instructions to the endpoint devices to control the operation of the endpoint devices. The network access hubs may also comprise earthquake detection circuits to detect possible earthquakes and transmit instructions to the endpoint devices to close valves accordingly.
