To start your Peakboard Box, a monitor must be connected. One Peakboard Box is foreseen per monitor. Ideally, you mount the Peakboard Box in a place that is easily accessible for you.

The Peakboard Box is operated with Windows 10 IoT Enterprise. This allows you to mount it in the appropriate domain and manage it like other computers on the network and perform regular updates.
The Peakboard Box is equipped with software, Peakboard Runtime, which executes the logic of data processing and visualization. Peakboard Designer, Peakboard Runtime and Peakboard Box, as well as connected systems and databases, communicate in an encrypted manner – you decide when and with which data sources, systems or machines communication takes place. This keeps the data within the company.
You can find more information about security and privacy in our FAQ.
The Peakboard Box consists of a single circuit board, protected by a sturdy aluminum housing. The connections are soldered robustly on the board.
Since the case also serves for heat dissipation, an additional fan is unnecessary. Optionally, you can seal your Peakboard Box with an (additional) cover to make it fit for special industrial environments, such as very humid rooms.
Processing data where it's being generated
Why the Peakboard Box?
View your dashboards from anywhere
You always need hardware to display data on a screen. This is particularly easy with the Peakboard Box. With Peakboard BYOD, you can also use alternative hardware to visualize your industrial application.
Direct communication
The communication between the Peakboard Box and source systems or machines or sensors is done completely independently and directly. No central server is required, which reduces latency enormously.
Protect your data
Each Peakboard Box can have its own security guidelines,
e.g., when it comes to a firewall or access rights.
Reliability
If one Peakboard Box fails, this will not affect other Peakboard Boxes.
IT infrastructure.
Peakboard offers you all the technical and organizational options for integration into a compliant OT and IT environment. The entire Peakboard solution does not require an Internet connection if you don’t want this – it can run completely on your LAN network. Peakboard can be deployed in an existing technology environment.
With Peakboard as your secure IT-OT interface, you improve data synergy and ensure fast real-time communication between and with your machines. For example, you can increase your OEE by reducing downtime. We’d love to meet for a free personal appointment to discuss what the solution would look like at your company.
The software
Peakboard Designer.
Capture, process and visualize your order data e.g. from SAP with the production data from your machine – in real time and without major programming effort.
Just download the software for free, install it on your PC and get started.

Frequently asked questions.
You can connect one monitor per Peakboard Box via HDMI cable. Splitting a visualization over several monitors is not provided.
The Peakboard Box starts with a Windows user who has no rights except those necessary for viewing. The user cannot install anything or run any other software except the one provided by us.
In addition, Peakboard Box runs in a kiosk mode that does not allow switching to desktop mode.
The Peakboard administrator account and password will be sent to you separately by email.
Note: Please change the password and keep it digitally. It cannot be reset if lost!
Yes. The circuit board in the Peakboard Box is protected by a robust aluminum housing. If the environment is suitable for a standard monitor (TV), you can also easily place your Peakboard Box there. In addition, it is possible to mount the Peakboard Box via a top-hat rail (mounting rail). Optionally, you can seal your Peakboard Box with an additional cover to make it fit for special industrial environments, e.g. very humid rooms.
The Peakboard Box does not require Internet access by default.
Yes, you can also visualize the applications on a screen without using the Peakboard Box. Our solutions are flexible and can also be displayed on a screen using an end device of your choice. We have the Peakboard BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) version, which allows you to purchase a license to run Peakboard on your own device (IPC hardware, laptop or tablet).
Feel free to tell me about your project or ask me your questions. I’m already looking forward to hearing from you.
