    3 devices 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.

    Ambient lux

    50800 lux
    • Threshold outside the 50–800 lux range
    • Slow drift, spotted before the threshold is crossed
    • Command sent back to the device over MQTT or Modbus

    Power

    0.212.0 kW
    • Threshold outside the 0.2–12.0 kW range
    • Slow drift, spotted before the threshold is crossed
    • Correlation with the site's other readings

    Active faults

    08
    • Threshold outside the 0–8 range
    • Slow drift, spotted before the threshold is crossed
    • Correlation with the site's other readings

    Dimming

    30100 %
    • Threshold outside the 30–100 % range
    • Slow drift, spotted before the threshold is crossed
    • Correlation with the site's other readings

    Start with the Smart lighting dashboard

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