Introduction

A physical interface that connects to our system. Depending of its technology, it will be managed by a specific module like ModBusRTU or SNMP or maybe even a Camera. In this configuration we define all parameters to access the device throught the SiteController, for example Slave address, IP address, passwords, baud rate, etc.


At the moment we have the possibility to connect the following devices

  • ModBusRTU
  • ModBusTCP
  • Adam with UDP
  • SNMP
  • Trapd
  • Camera
  • GPIO
  • Simon VossPLCs
  • REST
