Input plugins

Senseforce Edge comes with eight available input plugins

SQL

Connects to and reads Microsoft SQL Servers >= 2008, Oracle or SAP Hana. Allows to continually read historical as well as new data. Uses polling and remembers which row was the last read.

SQLite

Connects to and reads from SQLite databases. Allows to continually read historical as well as new data. Uses polling and remembers which row was the last read.

OPCUA

Subscribes to an OPC UA server using the opc.tcp protocol. Notification-based message transmission is used to only transmit changes in data.

REST

Call a remote REST endpoint to get data. Is implemented to poll data and remembers the last read message.

TCP

Sets up a TCP-socket based listener, allowing to wait for incoming messages

XML file parsing

Continually reads XML files and parses their content. Remembers the last read XML file, therefore can be used to read continuously generated files.

SINUMERIK

Connects to SIEMENS SINUMERIK systems and can read data and Alarms from the SINUMERIKs PLC as well as NCK controller

Heidenhain

Connects to Heidenhain PLCs which support the DNC communication protocol. It can read Errors as well as data from the Heidenhain COM structures and memory areas.
