This article provides a brief introduction to EXOR’s MicroEdge Basic IoT (XME-00), startup, activating the Codesys Trial license, and other basic operations.
Let’s enjoy FA.
MicroEdge Basic IoT (XME-00)
MicroEdge Basic IoT is a compact, lightweight device designed as an edge controller IoT gateway, making it simple to build efficient, data-intensive cloud edge solutions for the IoT.
MicroEdge Basic can be used as a gateway, a powerful HMI, to enable complex data-intensive IIoT applications.
And with the JMobile communication protocol, which is compatible with most major brands of industrial controllers, it integrates seamlessly into an environment dominated by legacy systems.
