Concept illustration
In practice
Read data from the Festo Energy Measurement Box.
Bring EMB measurements into a flow for display, logging, and analysis.
- The task
- Measurements from a Festo EMB need to be read and made usable in a flow.
- My contribution
- I developed this data reader at Didactic Services Ltd to bring EMB measurements into Node-RED through OPC UA.
- The result
- EMB readings become available for dashboards, logging, and analysis.
Capabilities
- Read measurement data from a Festo Energy Measurement Box.
- Connect to the equipment through OPC UA.
- Use the readings in dashboards, logs, and further analysis.
