With Peakboard, you have a number of options for processing your machine data, such as with an MQTT server or a cloud-based IoT hub (e.g., from Azure or Google). Through the integrated Siemens S7 interface, you can connect your Peakboard Box directly to an S7 controller. As a result, not only can you communicate machine data in real time, but you can also link it with more data from other Peakboard data sources, including from SAP, your MES, or through OPC UA.
You will find more information on our helpsite about the Siemens S7 data connection.
