MQTT Per-Point Topics
This type of distribution sends incoming data to your MQTT server, with one topic per point of live data.
This means that there will be a large number of individual topics in your MQTT hierarchy.
Each message simply contains the raw value of that point of information.
Configuration
The following configuration options are accepted…
| Name | Notes | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| hostname | Required | The DNS name or IP of your MQTT server |
| port | Default 1883 | The port number used to communicate to the MQTT server |
| topc | Required | The base topic to publish to |
| username | The username to connect to the MQTT server | |
| password | The password to connect to the MQTT server | |
Suggestions
We usually suggest using the fullpath option in your configuration to replicate your ARDI asset hierarchy in your MQTT system. But this is not a requirement.
