How to Connect IRD7100 MPT to Cloud?

IRD7100 MPT (Machinery Protection Transmitter) is a wall mounted Transmitter. It can be ordered for Vibration, Temperature, Speed or Gap Monitoring. It is built to work as a standalone device without any dependency on Cloud. However, if someone wishes to connect the IRD7100 MPT to Cloud like Zoho IOT - it is possible and following is how it will be achieved:
  1. Ensure IRD7100 MPT is Monitoring and Functioning properly
  2. Connect the 0-5 V DC or 4-20 mA output of IRD7100 MPT to a V DC to MODBUS OR 4-20 mA to MODBUS Converter.
  3. Connect the MODBUS RTU or MODBUS TCP/IP Output of the Converter to a Gateway that will then transmit the MODBUS data in MQTT to Cloud via 2G/4G/Wifi/Ethernet. The MODBUS Converter and Gateway can be neatly enclosed and terminated within a Junction Box (IOT Junction Box)
  4. The Gateway with MQTT protocol can be added as a Device in Zoho IOT cloud and Data from IRD7100 MPT will be available for Cloud Monitoring
  5. User can apply Widgets, Dashboards, Alarms and Reports to their liking in the Zoho IOT Cloud
