Functionalities
Encrypted VPN tunnels
The IXagent connects to a VPN server within the IXON Cloud infrastructure. It always automatically seeks the correct service and fastest available server. This gives you worldwide access to every device.
100% secure for your customers
Assure your customers of a secure connection. The embedded agent sets up a secure (outgoing) connection using strong encryption techniques. IXON's Certificate Authority system prevents Man-in-the-Middle attacks, and a fixed IP address or opening firewall ports are no longer necessary.
Data logging and alarms
Gain access to the data in your machine devices with data logging, fully managed on IXON Cloud. The IXagent supports protocols such as OPC-UA, Modbus TCP, Siemens S7, Ethernet/IP and BACnet.
The IXagent also actively monitors machine controls for certain events. In case of a trigger, users are informed about the event via IXON Cloud.
Local data analysis on the edge
The IXagent analyses machine data locally to reduce the amount of data sent to IXON Cloud. For example, only send the maximum value in an hour.
MQTT for data transfer
Using the MQTT connection, IXON Cloud sends commands and configurations to the IXagent. This in turn sends status reports, data and notifications to IXON Cloud.
Software updates
IXON always continues developing. Always up to date with new features to get even more out of your devices.
