Softing Inc. announced tManager™ for AWS IoT SiteWise delivering streamlined connectivity between Rockwell PLCs and AWS IoT SiteWise cloud computing services for industrial analytics at scale. The Softing tManager is the only ControlLogix™ or CompactLogix™ PLC module that inserts into the PLC chassis and enables direct and secure transactions between the PLC and cloud – no server, no coding, and no protocol translation. Softing and AWS teamed-up to deliver the latest version of tManager that connects directly into the AWS IoT Core simplifying the process to get the plant floor connected to analytics, dashboards, and business results. Once connected to the AWS IoT Core, user can use AWS IoT SiteWise to model user physical assets, processes and facilities, quickly compute common industrial performance metrics, and create fully managed web applications to help analyze industrial equipment data, reduce costs and make faster decisions. With AWS IoT SiteWise, user can focus on understanding and optimizing user operations, rather than building costly in-house data collection and management applications. In addition to tManager requiring no server, no coding, and no protocol translation for ControlLogix connectivity to the cloud, easy connectivity includes a drop down box selection for AWS cloud type, drop down for certificate entry, and AWS IoT Core auto pre-formatted data, which simplifies the connectivity process, adds security, saves time, and reduces opportunities for errors.
