M2M connection configuration – remote relay extension
Nano series devices (Nano Digital Input PoE, Nano Relay Output PoE) as the modules of the Lantick series can work together to create a remote extension input -> output.
Using the M2M connection, it is possible to design a remote relay activation path (blower, fan, heater) after the input is triggered.
How it’s working: After triggering the input in the Nano Digital Input PoE module, the relay in the Nano Relay Output PoE module will switch on.
Example of direct connection (M2M) configuration between Inveo modules:
| Nano Digital Input | Nano Relay Output |
|---|---|
| Network -> IP Address: 192.168.111.15 | Network -> IP Address: 192.168.111.16 |
| Network -> IP Mask: 255.255.255.0 | Network -> IP Mask: 255.255.255.0 |
| Network -> Destination IP: 192.168.111.16 | |
| Network -> Destination PORT: 9761 | |
| Administration -> Enable Destination Client | Administration -> Enable Program Access |
| Channel -> Dest:1 |
Supported protocols
- HTTP (GET) protocol,
- M2M,
- SNMP (Trap) protocol,
- Modbus TCP protocol,
- Built-in web server,
- TCP/UDP communication protocol,
- Smartphone / tablet with Android system.
If the MQTT Inveo service is enabled, the module sends the input status to the server every 1 minute and every input status change. You can read the input status directly on the smartphone. Only what you need is any application the support MQTT (for Android system).
The adventage of using MQTT Inveo service is that you do not need route ports on the router. Simply connect the device to the local router, configure the application and that’s all. You can enjoy remote data reading.
Device configuration
At the first start-up, it is necessary to configure the device. The easiest way to configure Inveo devices is to use a 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. The precise device configuration instruction can be found in the manual.
