    1 device offline: supervision flags it rather than hiding it.

    How it is wired

    Sensors report to a gateway, which forwards to Thingsform over MQTT. What sets the platform apart is the lower line: the command goes back to the equipment.

    What the platform does with these readings

    The dashboard is only the visible part: each metric can carry a threshold, drift detection and a command in return.

    Depth

    1 2004 200 m
    • Threshold outside the 1 200–4 200 m range
    • Slow drift, spotted before the threshold is crossed
    • Command sent back to the device over MQTT or Modbus

    Bit RPM

    60180
    • Threshold outside the 60–180 range
    • Slow drift, spotted before the threshold is crossed
    • Correlation with the site's other readings

    Mud pressure

    80320 bar
    • Threshold outside the 80–320 bar range
    • Slow drift, spotted before the threshold is crossed
    • Correlation with the site's other readings

    Vibration

    0.28.0 mm/s
    • Threshold outside the 0.2–8.0 mm/s range
    • Slow drift, spotted before the threshold is crossed
    • Correlation with the site's other readings

    Start with the Oil & gas drilling dashboard

    It ships configured. Connect your sensors over MQTT, HTTP or Modbus, and your values take the place of these.
