BRX Do-More Simulator MQTT Publish Subscribe

We will now look at the Do-More Simulator MQTT protocol. MQTT stands for Message Queuing Telemetry Transport. It is a simple publish and subscribe communication protocol that does not take too many resources. Constrained devices with low bandwidth are ideal for MQTT. This protocol provides a machine to machine (M2M) connectivity which is ideal for the Internet of Things. (IoT) We will be using a free on-line public MQTT broker from HiveMQ. Messages will be published and subscribed to by two clients. The first will be an MQTT Browser Client by HiveMQ. The Do-More Designer Simulator PLC will be the second MQTT Client. Information in the form of bits and words will be published and sent to both clients. Let’s get started. More information can be obtained on our website.

Here are just a few. - Standalone PLC with built-in I/O - Built-in Data Logging - Communication ability - Ethernet Port, RS232, RS485, USB - support for protocols such as Modbus RTU, Modbus TCP, ASCII, K-sequence (DirectLOGIC users), Custom Protocols (ASCII over serial, TCP or UDP over Ethernet) - Built-in Analog input and output - Integrated motion control - High-speed counters - Powerful instruction set (Video of Instructions in software) - Ability to expand the system with a variety of modules - Part of the Do-More series of PLCs which use the same free software. (Do-More Designer) - Integrated simulator in the software capable of external communications for testing The BRX series of programmable logic controllers consist of four different units. They differ depending on the Inputs and Outputs built into the unit and if it has the ethernet port. No I/O Micro PLC unit – (BX ME) 10 Point Micro PLC unit – (BX 10/10E) 18 Point Micro PLC unit - (BX 18/18E) 36 Point Micro PLC unit - (BX 36/36E) These CPUs (Central Processing Units) are also known as MPU (Multi-Processing Units) because of communication capabilities. https://www.accautomation.ca
