Technical characteristics
Power supply
- Passive PoE 10-24V DC,
- Power consumption: max. 1,5W.
Inputs
- Number of inputs: 1,
- Type of the input: NO, dry contact,
- Maximum value of the counter: 4 294 967 296,
- Maximum input frequency: 1000Hz.
Communication

Supported protocols
- M2M,
- HTTP (GET),
- SNMP (Trap),
- Modbus TCP,
- Built-in web server,

- Android smartphone/tablet.
If the MQTT Inveo service is enabled, the module sends the input status to the server every 1 minute and after it changes. You can read the input status directly on the smartphone. You only need an application that supports MQTT.
The advantage of using the MQTT Inveo service is that you do not need route any ports on the router. Simply connect the device to the local router, configure the application and that’s all you need to do to enjoy remote data reading.
M2M connection configuration – remote relay extension
Nano series devices (Nano In, Nano Out) as well as modules from the Lantick series can work together to create a LAN input -> output extension.
Using the M2M connection, it is possible to design a remote relay activation path after the input is triggered.
How it works: After triggering the input in the Nano In module, the relay in the Nano Out module will switch on.
Example of direct (M2M) connection configuration between Inveo modules:
M2M configuration
| Nano Digital Input | Nano Relay Output |
|---|---|
| Network -> IP Mask: 255.255.255.0 | Network -> IP Mask: 255.255.255.0 |
| Network -> IP Address: 192.168.111.15 | Network -> IP Address: 192.168.111.16 |
| Network -> Destination PORT: 9761 | |
| Network -> Destination IP: 192.168.111.16 | |
| Channel -> Dest:1 | |
| Administration -> Enable Destination Client | Administration -> Enable Program Access |
Device configuration
Upon the first power-up, it is necessary to configure the device. The easiest way to configure Inveo devices is to use the Discoverer application. The program is available here. After installing and launching the application, all Inveo devices connected to the network will appear in the table. If the device has not been found, select another Interface or check the connection to the router.
If the devices have the Enable Remote Config service disabled, it is necessary to change the settings manually by changing the computer’s IP address. Detailed device configuration instructions can be found in the user manual.
