Retrofit
External sensor and relay with Modbus output, read by the Gateway.
- 1
With an electrical integrator, install an external sensor (pressure, flow or temperature, depending on the equipment) and, if you want commands, a relay; both with Modbus TCP output.
- 2
Connect a Cepaos Gateway in IoT & Automation → Gateway and follow the install command.
- 3
Add the equipment in IoT & Automation → Connected equipment and set up the Modbus TCP adapter with the registers of the installed sensor and relay.
- 4
Check the readings in “View live” before using them in your records.
You need a Cepaos account with the administrator role.
Why a retrofit instead of a direct connection?
Because the manufacturer does not publish a communication interface. A retrofit measures from the outside with standard sensors, without touching the equipment’s control system.
