Example projects showing what this product can read, control and report. Each requires the appropriate sensors, connected equipment and application software.
Example: poll voltage, current and energy registers from a compatible Modbus RTU meter over RS-485. The logger timestamps readings, stores them on microSD and uploads them over Wi-Fi for shift-by-shift consumption reports.
Example: read run-state and production-count registers from a compatible PLC. Software records state changes and counter values so a dashboard can show output and stopped periods for each shift.
Example: read temperature registers from an RS-485/Modbus process controller. Save timestamped measurements locally and upload the history so operators can review temperature changes during a production batch.
