Step 1. Installing Ignition Gateway

...

  • MQTT Distributor– Supports up to 50 client connections and installs as a module on the Ignition Gateway.
  • MQTT Distributor Plus- Supports up to 250 client connections and installs as a module on the Ignition Gateway.
  • Chariot- Supports unlimited client connections and installs as a module on the Ignition Gatewaystandalone application on a Linux server or VM.

Click here to download the MQTT Distributor module – *note* scroll almost to the bottom of the page for the Cirrus Link Modules.

MQTT Engine is a host client that allows Ignition to connect to MQTT Servers and receive MQTT messages.  MQTT Engine supports Sparkplug B which enables the auto-discovery of devices and tags with the rich tag metadata.

Ignition Edge runs on most Edge Hardware platforms that support Java and have at least 1MB 1GB of free memory, this includes most Embedded edge hardware platforms or even a Raspberry Pi.

...

The Cloud Injector Modules install on the primary Ignition Gateway and allow specified Ignition tags to be sent to the cloud with a Cloud Injector originated connection. Thus Thus, no inbound ports are open on the Ignition Gateway server for this cloud connection.  Data is sent using the same efficient report by exception methodology to reduce data bandwidth and cloud injection costs.
