    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.

    Soil moisture

    1555 %
    • Threshold outside the 15–55 % range
    • Slow drift, spotted before the threshold is crossed
    • Command sent back to the device over MQTT or Modbus

    Valve

    0100 %
    • Threshold outside the 0–100 % range
    • Slow drift, spotted before the threshold is crossed
    • Correlation with the site's other readings

    Water flow

    028 L/min
    • Threshold outside the 0–28 L/min range
    • Slow drift, spotted before the threshold is crossed
    • Correlation with the site's other readings

    Rain

    0.024.0 mm
    • Threshold outside the 0.0–24.0 mm range
    • Slow drift, spotted before the threshold is crossed
    • Correlation with the site's other readings

    Start with the Smart irrigation dashboard

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