7bit CloudPoint is a gateway for integrating small engineering systems with cloud services. It has Ethernet, WiFi, RS-485 serial bus (isolated) and supports the MQTT protocol for communication with IoT systems such as Level2 or others. With this module, you can connect to an automation device with an interface, read the necessary parameters and transfer them to the cloud system. It is also possible to implement feedback. Using the built-in Lua scripting language, the data can be read, processed properly, and transmitted in the desired format further. In addition to the standard Modbus RTU, it is possible to connect almost any device using the same Lua.
In general, the system consists of one or more modules that poll the connected devices (heat station controllers, meters, etc.) and transmit them to a cloud-based upper-level system such as Level2 or another system – via a local network or the Internet, using the MQTT protocol.
