Inveo Monitoring

Purpose of the application

The application is used to preview the values of sensors and input/output states, write subsequent readings and alarm conditions to a log file, send e-mail and SMS (SMSAPI) messages.

The program uses the MQTT protocol for communication and supports the following Inveo modules:

• Virtus
• Daxi
• IQIO PRO
• IQIO Sens
• Hero Web Sensor
• Nano In/Nano Digital Input PoE
• Nano Out/Nano Relay Output PoE
• Nano Temp/Nano Temperature Sensor PoE

The program can be used both on Microsoft Windows and Linux operating systems.

Program configuration

After running the installation program, follow the instructions shown on the screen.

Modules configuration

Virtus, Daxi, IQIO

1. Enable the MQTT service in the device's web interface using the Services / MQTT tab and enter the minimum required parameters:

• Broker – MQTT broker address,
• Port,
• QoS – Quality of Service setting:
  • QOS0 – At most once,
  • QOS1 – At least once,
  • QOS2 – Exactly once.

2. In the Sensors tab, select the desired sensor. Click the icon, and select Notifications and MQTT Notification.

3. After installing and running the Inveo Monitoring software, enter the broker address first. To do that, go to the Settings tab.

4. In the Add device section, enter the details of a sensor to be displayed:

• MQTT topic – Topic the readings will be received from,
• Custom name – Name of the sensor that will be displayed inside its frame for user convenience.

For Virtus, Daxi and IQIO modules, the default topic has the following structure:

model/<mac_address>/s[x]

where:

• model is the device's model,
• <adres_mac> is the device's MAC address,
• [x] is the sensor index (ID column in the Sensors tab).

After entering the parameters, click the Add icon. The data will be moved to the table below.

Entering correct data here will display the sensor readings in the Devices tab.

5. For the values to display correctly, a sensor type should be set. In the Devices tab, click the tile of the sensor to be modified and select the Sensor type, accepting with OK:

• Temperature,
• Humidity,
• Input,
• Output.

Hero Web Sensor

1. Enable the MQTT service in the device's web interface using the Services / MQTT tab and enter the minimum required parameters:

• Server Address – MQTT broker address,
• Server port,
• Topic, to which the module will send its readings,
• QoS – Quality of Service setting:
  • QOS0 – At most once,
  • QOS1 – At least once,
  • QOS2 – Exactly once.

2. In the Sensors tab, select the desired sensor's index. In the Warn Matrix section, MQTT row, select the information to be sent via MQTT.

It's possible to set the reading transmission frequency by changing the Info period value in the Sensors tab.

3. After installing and running the Inveo Monitoring software, enter the broker address first. To do that, go to the Settings tab.

4. In the Add device section, enter the details of a sensor to be displayed:

• MQTT topic – Topic the readings will be received from,
• Custom name – Name of the sensor that will be displayed inside its frame for user convenience.

The default topic has the following structure:

topic/sensor[x]

where:

• topic is the value from the Topic field (Services tab),
• [x] is the sensor index (Channel field in Sensors).

After entering the parameters, click the Add icon. The data will be moved to the table below.

Entering correct data here will display the sensor readings in the Devices tab.

Nano series modules

1. Enable the MQTT service in the device's web interface by clicking Enable MQTT Inveo in the Adminsitration tab. Clicking Show Info will open a window containing the information required for configuration.

Save all changes by clicking Save Config.

2. In the Network tab, configure the MQTT broker address and port.

3. After installing and running the Inveo Monitoring software, enter the broker address first. To do that, go to the Settings tab.

4. In the Add device section, enter the details of a sensor to be displayed:

• MQTT topic – Topic the readings will be received from,
• Custom name – Name of the sensor that will be displayed inside its frame for user convenience.

After entering the parameters, click the Add icon. The data will be moved to the table below.

Entering correct data here will display the sensor readings in the Devices tab.

Application main screen – Devices tab

Clicking the sensor tile will display additional settings.

• MQTT Topic – Sensor's topic,
• Custom name,
• Sensor type: Temperature, Humidity, Input, Output,
• Maximum temperature – Applies to the temperature sensor only – upper limit of temperature, exceeding of which will trigger an alarm. Default value: 25°C,
• Minimum temperature – Applies to the temperature sensor only – lower limit of temperature, exceeding of which will trigger an alarm. Default value: -1°C,
• Maximum humidity value – Applies to the humidity sensor only – maximum allowed humidity value, exceeding of which will trigger an alarm,
• Minimum humidity value – Applies to the humidity sensor only – minimum allowed humidity value, exceeding of which will trigger an alarm,
• Alarm when – Applies to input, output modules – sets the alarm condition to:
  • 0 – Relay open/input not triggered,
  • 1 – Relay closed/input triggered,
  • 2 – Alarm inactive.
• Color – Sensor tile background colour during an alarm condition,
• Maximize when alarm – The program window will be maximized during an alarm,
• Communication alarm – Activating this option will trigger an alarm if communication is lost,
• Send e-mail – Selecting this option will send e-mail messages containing the current sensor values and alarm notifications,
• Add – Sets the time range of sending notifications via e-mail or SMS,
• Remove – Removes the time range described above,
• Periodic sending – Displays the time ranges of e-mail notifications,
• Send SMS – Activating this option will send SMS messages containing the current sensor values and alarm notifications,
• Save to file – Zapisywanie kolejnych odczytów w pliku określonym w zakładce Settings.

Save readings to a file

Inveo Monitoring allows subsequent sensor readings to be saved to a file located in a user-specified folder.
