The general configurations options available on this tab are listed below:

  • Enabled
    • Sets whether the module is enabled or disabled.  If disabled, the Tag Agents will not run and now data will be pushed to any configured endpoints.


Azure IoT Hubs

The first tab is the list of Azure IoT Hub endpoints that the module should connect to to push tag data.

One or more Azure IoT Hub endpoints can be configured on this tab. The configuration options for an Azure IoT Hub connection are listed below.

Sets

The Sets tab contains a list of Azure Sets.  Each set represents a grouping of Azure IoT Hub endpoints.  When a set is referenced by a Tag Agent the Agent will push Tag data to all Azure IoT Hub endpoints contained within that Set. The Sets are disjoint, meaning that a single Azure IoT Hub endpoint cannot be in more than one set.  Out of the box the Azure Injector module will have one "Default" set defined.

Additional Sets can be configured for situations where multiple Tag Agents will need to push to different Azure IoT Hub endpoints. The configuration options for Sets are listed below.

Clicking on the 'Create new Azure Set...' link will bring up the following form to add a new Set.

Tag Agents are the workers within Azure Injector that monitor tag events, convert them to a JSON representation, and push them to one or more Azure IoT Hub endpoints. Out of the box the Azure Injector module will have one "default" Tag Agent defined.

Tag Agents are configured to point to a single folder.  All Tags within that folder will be monitored by the Tag Agent. 

...

Clicking on the 'Create new Tag Agent Settings..' link will bring up the following form to add a new Tag Agent.
