Device Control

The prerequisites required for the Edge to control sub-devices include the following:

  • The applications on the cloud can send device control commands;
  • The protocol with which Edge communicates with the sub-device supports the command;
  • The current Edge supports the following control types:
    • Remote control DO: sending the switch quantity commands;
    • Remote tuning AO: sending the analog quantity commands.

Device control by EnOS™ Edge includes the following steps performed by Edge:

  1. Receiving the control commands sent from applications on the cloud;
  2. Converting them into protocol-conforming messages that the sub-device can process;
  3. Sending messages to the sub-devices to for them to execute the commands.
