iCOMOX
The iCOMOX connector is a field connector that reads sensor data from an iCOMOX device through MQTT.
Connection settings
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Host | MQTT broker hostname or IP address. |
| Port | MQTT broker port. |
| TLS | Enables encrypted MQTT transport. |
| Validate Certificate | Verifies the broker certificate when TLS is enabled. |
| Use Self-Signed | Allows a custom certificate chain to be supplied. |
| Certificate | PEM certificate content used for a self-signed trust chain. |
| Authentication | Enables MQTT username/password authentication. |
| Username | MQTT username. |
| Password | MQTT password. |
| Device ID | iCOMOX device identifier loaded from the broker. |
| Magnetic Activity Threshold | Threshold in micro Tesla used to determine machine activity. |
| ADXL362 Downsampling Factor | Downsampling for the low-power accelerometer. |
| ADXL356 Downsampling Factor | Downsampling for the analog accelerometer. |
| BMM150 Downsampling Factor | Downsampling for the magnetometer. |
| IM69D130 Downsampling Factor | Downsampling for the microphone. |
Runtime behavior
When the connector starts, it subscribes to the MQTT topics for the selected iCOMOX device and processes incoming sensor reports.
Reniway automatically creates and updates bridge properties from the reported sensor values. This includes:
- machine activity information
- temperature and environmental values
- accelerometer samples
- magnetometer samples
- microphone and vibration-related values
Notes
- Load the
Device IDonly after the MQTT settings are valid. - Downsampling is important for high-frequency sensors to keep data volumes manageable.
- iCOMOX properties are generated from live device traffic rather than being defined manually one by one.
