Supports MQTT Version 3.1.Alarms and Events for KEPServerEX can help reduce costs and improve performance.Has a configurable data package size for single transactions.Supports tag import and export for quick project configuration and deployment.Supports deadband to limit data throughput.Offers customizable JSON data format to support most MQTT and REST applications.This setting can be used when accessing the IoT Gateway REST Server agent from a custom web page. Added support for users to enable or disable connections from Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) sources.The MQTT agent can be configured to subscribe to a topic on the MQTT broker to allow other publishers to write to tags under that agent. Added support for writes via MQTT agents.Added support for writing to Array data types (with the exception of String Arrays).In addition to JSON, XML and CSV can be generated using this template. Added support for an advanced template to format data for improved control over the payload being sent from the REST Client and MQTT agents.Expanded and corrected error handling on the MQTT engine to provide improved feedback.
Fixed an issue where the REST Client Agent was sending an invalid Accept header, causing the connection to be rejected with an HTTP error 406.Fixed an issue where tag scan rate would revert to a default of 10ms if set higher than 32767.Fixed a defect where write requests would timeout if the device’s Scan Mode was set to “Demand Poll Only.”.Corrected an issue where “Bad” quality updates were repeatedly sent to endpoints due to being interpreted as data changes.Corrected an issue where the MQTT Agent could block all other agents if it did not connect on the initial attempt.Updated the minimum JRE version to Java 7 (JRE 1.7 32 bit) to support new gateway functionality.The ThingWorx binary protocol enhances configuration, performance, and secure communications. Added new agent type for publishing data to the ThingWorx platform.Cybersecurity: Improve security posture across industrial systems to mitigate emerging cybersecurity threats.Safety, Security, and Compliance: Gain visibility into system performance or set points that could put machines or people at risk, and quickly develop and access reports for compliance purposes.Anomaly and Outlier Detection: Identify outliers that may be an early indicator of issues in device production or deployment.Root-Cause Analysis and Remote Troubleshooting: Gain a better understanding of the cause of a particular failure on a particular device and improve efficiency.Capacity Planning: Monitor data for risk of unplanned device or system downtime.
Measurement, Verification, and Constant Commissioning: Ensure that devices in the field operate as intended.Kepware has partnered with Big Data and analytics providers to enable insight into the operations and conditions of industrial devices and systems. This enables decision-makers to search, monitor, analyze, and visualize data for real-time insight into industrial operations-leading to increased system security, improved customer service, streamlined automation, and better decisions across the enterprise.Įnterprise and cloud-based solutions enable organizations to search, monitor, analyze, and visualize KEPServerEX-generated data coming from PACs, PLCs, RTUs, flow computers, OPC servers, and other industrial hardware and software. The IoT Gateway connects Operations with IT to support the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). It presents RESTful web servers for integration with web services in MES and other systems, and seamlessly streams real-time industrial data directly into device clouds and Big Data analytics platforms across the enterprise.
The IoT Gateway is an advanced plug-in that extends the capabilities of the KEPServerEX connectivity platform.
