Device Templates for Faster Fleet Management
Managing a large fleet of field sensors just got simpler. We have overhauled how device data is organized within ControlCom Connect, making it easier for integrators to scale their monitoring systems while maintaining data integrity across the platform.
Structured Device Templates
Organizing variables and commands is now more intuitive with a new device template structure. This update allows you to define the behavior and data points of your hardware in a centralized way, ensuring consistency across all installations.
Organized Variables: Group and define sensor data more clearly within each template.
Command Definitions: Standardize the instructions sent to your hardware, making it easier to control multiple devices of the same type.
Faster Deployment: Once a template is created, you can apply it to new devices instantly, reducing the time spent on manual configuration during site setups.
Template and Gateway Integration
To help plant managers maintain a clear view of their network hierarchy, device templates now link directly to ControlCom gateways. This means you can manage all connected hardware through the specific gateway that handles its traffic, providing better visibility into your field architecture and simplifying remote monitoring tasks.
Improved Data Ingestion Reliability
We have updated the core data processing engine to ensure your industrial data flows more reliably from the edge to the dashboard. These changes mean less latency and fewer missed data points, which is critical for accurate predictive analytics and real-time alarming in water/wastewater and manufacturing environments.
What This Means for You
Fewer Truck Rolls: Better organization and reliable data mean you can troubleshoot more from the office.
Simpler Scaling: Adding ten or one hundred new sensors follows the same structured workflow.
Clearer Insights: With standardized templates, your data is more consistent, making it easier to compare performance across different sites or assets.
