Integration Into Existing Systems
8. Integration Into Existing Systems
The Web-IO supports several common standards and protocols
and can therefore be integrated easily into many existing
systems.
MQTT
After enabling MQTT and configuring in the menu branch
Communication paths >> MQTT
the Web-IO supports two basic
possibilities:
1. Passing the individual IO states and the counter value as an
MQTT Topic to an MQTT Broker via MQTT Publish.
2. Switching the output depending on Topic contents received
via MQTT Subscribe.
Both cases are handled in the Web-IO as an Action. A detailed
description of the Action philosophy used in the Web-IO can be
found in the Actions section.
Publish IO states
To create a new MQTT Publish, click on the Add button under
Actions
. The input screen for a new action will appear.
Here you can specify a name for the action and what the
initiator should be.
For example you can specify Input as the initiator and ON as
the trigger.
For the action select
MQTT-Publish
. In the following menu enter
the path through which the Topic should be written for the
Broker.
You can freely determine the contents of the Topic, where the
placeholders described in the infotext can be used.
