New Version Software Release : IoTstar v2.0

Product Update 2021-06-21


 

Introduction

IoTstar is a software developed by ICP DAS for use in remote monitoring and management of the WISE/PMC/PMD controllers in a variety of Industrial IoT applications. IoTstar can be installed on a general PC platform and works as a Private Cloud IoT system, or on the VM(Virtual Machine) of the Public Cloud platform and works as a Public Cloud IoT system. Using IoTstar to build the IoT Cloud system, it can provide 4 major services:
1. Controller Remote Access Service (Status Monitoring, System Setting, and Firmware Update).
2. Sensor Data Collection Service
3. Sensor Data Visualization Service
4. Bot Service with Mobile Phone

During the IoT Cloud system development, there is no-programming-required, and the system setting can be completed only through the web interface operation. In addition, through the SQL command, IoTstar can be quickly integrated with the data analysis tools to help users quickly build the “IoT + Big Data” Cloud application.




 

Features

➤ Flexible installation environment supported to quickly set up IoT Cloud system
✓ According to the needs of the field site, the installation environment can be flexibly selected.
IoTstar can be installed on the VM(Virtual Machine) of the Public Cloud platform to implement the Public IoT Cloud system. It can reduce the loading for maintaining the IoT Cloud operating environment.
 
 
If user concerns about the environment of the system operation or data storage, IoTstar can be installed on a private Windows PC to implement the Private IoT Cloud system, and then user can manage the environment by himself.
 
 
✓ No more programming! Using Browser to set up the IoT Cloud system
Only by a few clicks on Web page of IoTstar/WISE/PMC/PMD to complete the setting of IoT Cloud system.
 
➤ Remote Access Service - Remote maintenance for Controllers
With IoTstar, users do not need to worry about the network environment of the WISE/PMC/PMD controller, regardless of whether the controller uses the static IP, dynamic IP, virtual IP or physical IP, user can perform the status monitoring, system setting adjusting, and update the firmware of the controllers. It can reduce the time and cost of personnel travel due to performing the maintenance operations of controllers.

 
 
➤ Sensor Data Service - Import sensor data into database at the cloud
✓ Sensor data collection and import data into database
With IoTstar, the sensor data (and/or Power data) collected from the WISE/PMC/PMD controllers will be sent to IoTstar, and import the data into the Database at the Cloud. The users can quickly setup the Data Lake for the IoT and Big Data applications.


 
 
✓ Support SQL interface to speed up the integration of OT and IT systems
With the support of SQL command interface, the sensor data stored by IoTstar can be connected easily with the third-party data analysis tools (such as: Power BI, Google Data Studio, SCADA system, and ERP/MES systems). It can assist user to integrate the OT(Operational Technology) and IT(Information Technology) systems quickly and seamlessly.
 
➤ Sensor Data Visualization Service
With the built-in standard web page of IoTstar, user can directly query and review the sensor data (and Power data) collected from the WISE/PMC/ PMD controllers.

 
IoTstar also provides IoTstar Dashboard Service package. Through the Dashboard editor and a variety of Widget components provided by IoTstar Dashboard Service, user can quickly setup the Dashboard page for the sensor data (and Power data) collected from the WISE/PMC/PMD controllers according to their needs. Please note: IoTstar Dashboard Service is a optional package for IoTstar.
 
➤ Bot Service - Interactive operation through mobile phone
IoTstar provides IoTstar Bot Service package for two-way message interactions between the WISE/PMC/PMD controller managed by IoTstar and LINE chat rooms. Users can query the sensor data (and Power data) collected from the WISE/PMC/PMD controllers anytime and anywhere by LINE App. In addition, with the ICP DAS iCAM IP Camera, it can also receive the video recording events on the application site. Please note: IoTstar Bot Service (Supported LINE App) is a optional package for IoTstar.
