5 key benefits of the platform
Rapid fast IMPLEMENTATION on top of already existing automation and control
- Pre-configured operating environment to build infrastructure connectivity over TCP/IP Stack
- Pre-configured environment for integration with industrial PLCs (SIEMENS, SCHNEIDER, etc.)
- Two-way PLC communication via established industry standard protocols (SIEMENS S7, OPC/UA, Modbus, MQTT)
- Data security and encryption
Online access to PERSONAL WORKSPACE
Adaptive logic for NOTIFICATION whenever certain events occur
Collection, processing, tracking and graphic provisioning of HISTORICAL DATA
Visual means to develop logical PREDICTION of events
Hardware specifications
-
Mounting:
