THE IoT OFFER FROM ibw ag

Based on our framework, as part of our offer we support you in:

«EVERYONE’S TALKING ABOUT IT - WE’VE MANAGED TO DO IT»

• Incorporating your requirements• The conception and design of the entire system: Data interface for embedded device, data communication, data storage, analysis, presentation of web client and mobile app• Implementingthesolution:configurationforthecommunicationinterfaces (rule-based) for your device ConfigurationoftheuserinterfaceGUI(menu,submenu,filter) Customer-specificadditionaldevelopments• Managing the project: project management, test management / testing, customer support until acceptance• Operating the entire system with the Service Level Agreement of your choice

THE DEVELOPMENT PRINCIPLES OF THE IoT FRAMEWORK

smartNode: Gateway or embedded(integrated in the device)

• Gateway for data acquisition Logreaderwithconfigurablerules Data interfaces (IP protocols, serial protocols)

APPLICATION & BENEFITS FOR...

Application / Clients:

• WebGUI for administration, operation, reporting and analytics• Apps for smartphones Developed with Xamarin for iOS and Android

Together with the framework approach (reusable, generic mo-dules), the maintenance and further development of software is ensured on a long-term and cost-effective basis.

Newfeaturesandcustomer-specificadjustmentsarefavouredby the “Smart” concept, and can also be implemented to a large extentbyconfigurationmeasures.

Openness:

• Extensibility/configurability/multi-clientcapability• Platform / operating system-independent• Distribution of installation / infrastructure• Open, documented reporting installations: CSV, PDF or Excel exports for further use in customer applications such as ERP, ticketing, Salesforce

THE IoT FRAMEWORK

the manufacturer &the developer

As a manufacturer you are interested in observational data regarding the devices that are supplied. In the past, you had to conduct time-consuming surveys with customers to get this information. Once your devices are online, you decide how often the operating data is to be queried and you evaluate this data systematically. You detect faults in the design at an early stage and correct them before your customer notices.

From now on continuous improvement (QA cycle) is not just a buzzword!

• Transfer errors and status of device and save in the database -Triggernotifications(email,SMSorMQTT) - Interface for ERP or ticketing system• Connect to individual devices (if necessary) - Request status details, read statistics counter.

the service department

Start-up by service technicians receives optimal support via the web interface.

Once your device has established a connection to the server via theInternet,itreceivesthepreconfigureddataand-ifrequired- the current software. Adjustments made locally are immediately synchronised for data backup on the server. You can now safeguard all other adjust-ments and error diagnoses remotely without going to the object.

• Configuration,start-up,improvement(SWupgrade)• “Preventative” maintenance, service, logistics• Optimised operational costs (transfer, maintenance)• Provider-independent, can be used globally

the customer & the sale

You know how your devices are used at all times. You optimise the hours of opera-tion and the offer, tailored to the user information. You shape your presence and the prices in real time, and you optimise your sale.

• Sale / user statistics• Maintenance of product range• Pricing / sales models (SaaS)

Standard:

• Transport: MQTT open standard, which all important providers of IoT solutions support• Security: TLS

Open Source:

• Linux• Node-RED• MQTT

Communication:

• Communication clients for PC (Linux, Windows) and smartphones (Android and iOS) Protocols: MQTT Security: Authentication with user name, password, TLS encrypted data

smartServices:

• Rule-based interface for saving data to the database• Database with generic model for saving and managing devices, events, infrastructure objects and organisa- tional data

Gateway-Hardware(e.g.: Raspberry pi)

The IoT framework offers all of the necessary basic functions for connecting various devices, such as the secure, encrypted data transfer, storage and services (business logic) for the customer-specificapplications.

«When designing the solution, we put the emphasis on openness, the use of standards and open-source software.»

THE OPERATION OF YOUR APPLICATION

Your device or the gateway being used communicates via a local network (LAN, W-LAN) or via the wireless network of a telecom provider.

We have chosen the market leader with the best network coverage as our communications partner - Swisscom.

If you like, we can look after the data subscription that best suits your needs, which you receive in the package for all European countries at a uniform tariff.

We are glad to install the solution in your own system environ-ment for you. You look after the operational side of things and we can provide support (if you so wish) based on a service contract.

Choose your required package, consisting of:

• IoT framework BASIS• IoT application: dashboard, administration, operation, reporting• Customer-specificadjustments• Client with number of devices and users• Data subscription: data volume / month and device• Installation type: in-house, dedicated hosting, Cloud• SLA: required availability and response time in case of failure

«You can decide to run your solution yourself or we can do it for you»

If you would like to use your IoT application simply and without worry, we can operate the solution for you, and ensure the required availability. We will ensure the secure transfer of your data (encrypted) and save it in a protected environment that only you can access.
