Connio Edge group Node helps

[bmrb]

device out

Default name of the node should be "device out" when dragged into the canvas but Name field on settings page should be left empty. If Name field is not set by the user, it should be set automatically as we do now. If set explicitly, it should stay as is.

Overview [actual title is not required]

This node represents an edge device sending data streams to the platform.

Inputs

msg.payload contains the value that will be written into the device property or used as method argument. If Data Feed Format is selected instead of a property, provided data is expected to be as Data Feed Object type, otherwise it should match to property or expected method argument type.

Outputs

The output should be connected to connio connector node or into a gateway node. See Gateway section to understand the difference between connecting devices directly versus connecting though a gateway.

device in

Default name of the node should be "device in" when dragged into the canvas but Name field on settings page should be left empty.

This node allows to listen property data sent to the selected device from the platform.

Outputs

msg.topic contains the name of the property, msg.payload contains the received value. In order for a property data to be sent to the device by the platform, it should be marked as "publish always".

gateway

[bmrb]

• [ ] It turned out that the current msg.topic is not correct in any node since we send full topic in this field. It should be like the following in gateway in

• msg.topic Contains the topic including the property name

• msg.payload Contains the received value

• [ ] Also change device in

• msg.topic Contains the topic including the property name
