3.2 Host communication
The iConnector are designed to connect to Daviteq Platform, aka Vizuo Globiots. Vizuo Globiots is a web-based software application to remotely configure device, parameter, alarm and event. In addition, Vizuo displays current values, historical values of parameters as well as events, alarms. Values of parameter are stored on database of GLOBIOTS server.
In additional, iConnector is able to send data to any servers via common protocols such as HTTP, FTP, UDP/IP,...

7.1. Connecting the iConnector to the Daviteq Platform
Refer section x.xx to see how to use the iConfig software
Step 1: Configure the iConnector via iConfig software
- Get basic information of the iConnector to register it into Daviteq Platform including Serial number & FCC
- Setup network information in order that the iConnector can go online in the internet. Base on your application, you should configure wifi or ethernet information.
WIFI mode
In this mode, there are three parameters must be configured, including MAIN_NETWORK , WIFI_NAME, WIFI_PASSWORD
Parameters | Description |
MAIN_NETWORK | 1: WIFI mode 2: ETHERNET mode |
WIFI_NAME | Wifi name of WIFI network |
WIFI_PASSWORD | Password of WIFI network |
ETHERNET mode
In this mode, there are five parameters should be configured, including MAIN_NETWORK , ETHERNET_STATIC_IP, ETHERNET_GATEWAY, ETHERNET_DNS_SERVER, ETHERNET_DHCP_ENABLE
Parameters | Description |
MAIN_NETWORK | 1: WIFI mode 2: ETHERNET mode |
ETHERNET_STATIC_IP | The static IP of Ethernet network use for iConnector. If running DHCP mode, ignore this parameter |
ETHERNET_GATEWAY | The default gateway of Ethernet network use for iConnector. If running DHCP mode, ignore this parameter |
ETHERNET_DNS_SERVER | The DNS server of Ethernet network use for iConnector. |
ETHERNET_DHCP_ENABLE | 0 = DISABLE, 1 = ENABLE |
The parameter MAIN_NETWORK is located in the WIFI tab of the software, while other parameters are in the ETHERNET tab.
Step 2: Read data of iConnector from Daviteq Platform
- Access to Vizuo Globiots via the link https://vizuo.globiots.com and login to the system with the username and password supplied Daviteq.
- Register the iConnector into Globiots
- RIGHT-CLICK on the corresponding site in the Organization Chart => New=>Device
-
- There are some fields must be configured, including Name, Serial number, Device ID, FCC, Memmap, Logging send frequency, Health send frequency. After the fields were configured => Click Save button
Fields Description Name Optional name, must be 12 characters Serial number Serial number of iConnector
*Taken from step 1Device ID Click Generate button in the software FCC FCC of iConnector
*Taken from step 1Memmap Choose SUB-GHZ VIEW 2 Logging send frequency Choose 3 minutes Health send frequency Choose 5 minutes
- There are some fields must be configured, including Name, Serial number, Device ID, FCC, Memmap, Logging send frequency, Health send frequency. After the fields were configured => Click Save button
- Add parameter to read data from the iConnector
- Download the parameter file in link xxxxx
- Right-click on the device=>Pararameter
-
- Choose the parameter file=> Tick Replace option=> Click Import button
Refer the link below to see more detail of parameter configuration
https://daviteq.com/en/manuals/books/user-guides-for-vizuo-software-on-web/page/vizuo-software-on-web#bkmrk-5.4-configure-parame
- Add basic dashboard to show data of the iConnector
- Download the dashboard file in link xxxxx
- In Home screen, select Management => select sub-menu Dashboard
- Click Stop button=> Click Import button
7.2. Read data of Wireless sensors from Globiots
Make sure the process in section 7.1 was completed successfully.
Step 1: Add Sub-GHz sensor to the iConnector
- Open software=> import template
- Install the batteries to the wireless sensor, then touch the sensor to the iConnector'antenna. If the iConnector sound "beep", it mean the paring process is successful.
Step 2: Read data from Daviteq Platform
- Create the parameter
- Create the modbus command
- Add the basic dashboard to show data
7.3. Read data of Modbus slave from Globiots
Make sure the process in section 7.1 was completed successfully.
Step 1: Establish the RS485 network among iConnector and modbus slaves
- wiring
- get modbus information of slave devices
Step 2: Read data from Daviteq Platform
- Create the parameter
- Create the modbus command
- Add the basic dashboard to show data
7.4. Modbus TCP/IP converter function
Principle Flow of this function as below
- iConnector is connected to the Modbus RTU slave as with electric meters, devices, ... via RS485 port;
- Software / device / PLC ... with Modbus TCP Client connected to iConnector (role as TCP Server)
- TCP Client sends command to iConnector;
- iConnector transfers commands from Modbus TCP to RTU and sends to devices via RS485 port;
- iConnector waits for the devices to respond;
- iConnector transfers the response from the RTU to the Modbus TCP and then sends it back to the TCP Client;
- TCP Client actively closes the connection if it no longer sends command to iConnector.
Step 1: Configure the iConnector via iConfig software
Refer section x.xx to see how to use the iConfig software
- Configure the iConnector at Ethernet tab
Name | Description |
IP | Static IP configuration for iConnector. Example: 192.168.1.30 |
Gateway | Configure gateway |
DNS Server | Configure DNS Server |
DHCP |
Configure to 0, it's mean Not using DHCP → Static IP |
- Configure the iConnector at Modbus tab
Name | Description |
MODBUS_BAUD_RATE | Configure the modbus baudrate to 9600 bps |
MODBUS_PARITY | Configure the parity to none |
MODBUS_TIMEOUT | Configure the modbus timeout to 1000 ms |
MODBUS_POLL_CYCLE | Configure the modbus poll cycle to 1s |
MB_TCP_SERVER_PORT | Configure the receiving port to 502 |
MB_TCP_SERVER_ENABLE_TRANSPARENT |
Configure to 1 : To run transparent, interrupt modbus RTU poll. |
MODBUS_TCP_SERVER_TIMEOUT | Used for modbus TCP Server |
Step 2: Read data of iConnector from TCP/IP Client software
In this guide, we use Easy Modbus Client software. You can use any other Modbus TCP/IP client software
- Connect the iConnector to the PC via LAN cable.
- Connect the Modbus RTU slave to the iConnector via RS485 cable.
- Power on the devices
- In TCP/IP Client software, input correct Server IP Adresss and Port that configured in step 1. Then, click Connect button. If the status at the bottom show "Connected to server", it means the successful connection.
Ensure that the IP address of the PC is configured within the same subnet as the TCP/IP server address set on the iConnector in Step 1.
- Read a parameter base on the modbus memory map of slave device. For example, read a register 30001 of the Modbus slave
