At 1:15 i mentioned the CPU running at 1Ghz, this was a mistake, it is running at 400Mhz. sorry for the confusion
There have been many questions about what the IOT2020 and IOT2040 are for, what is their intended use etc.
Are they a gateway, an Edge Device, Something Else ?, how do they fit into the Industrial Internet of things ?
This video should answer that question

Hello Peter! When I connect a device (Arduino Mega) to the USB type A port (X60 USB) present in the Simatic IoT 2040, the device powers up but isn't enlisted in /dev list of ports. Even if I type dmseg | grep tty command, it shows ttyS1 S2 and S3 are enabled but when I try collecting data it just shows b'' which is empty for data bits...when I use the same code for Windows on COM15 port it shows the data b'values' What would I be doing wrong? Or is there any drivers I need to install for usb ports? First time when I used the device, ttyACM0 came up in dev/ but disappeared the second time I used the device...I even used another different image OS but of no use...

Hi Peter, Thanks for your video. But can you suggest any end devices that can act as a relay/physical switch module and talk to iot2020/2040, say to retrofit an existing house/building to implement automation with minimal/no re-wiring (probably using power line comm.). Im looking for a system which is both easy to implement and economical and concentrate on software and cloud to make it smart.

renjith. rk I can Try looking at iteadstudio sonoff devices. Complete ready to go wireless power sockets. Wall switches. Power monitors etc at very competitive prices. I have several videos on how to use them and also reprogramming them to use a local mqtt server running on an IOT2020 for example.

Hey..I want to make a big hotel automation.. controlling the LEDs and AC's, etc.. can i use this ?? and also do i need a plc ??

Hi Peter; Curious what future you see for this product line with Intel recently announcing end-of-life for its Galileo, Joule and Edison lines?

@TheBreadboardca 7 жыл бұрын

The boards are end of life but the Chipsets are not. I have spoken with Siemens and they are looking into the implications but have not announced anything to date. I am sure this may influence later iterations of the IOT 2000 series.

Thanks, that's good to know - I didn't realise it was only the boards themselves. Still humming and ahhing over replacing my 2020 with a 2040, so you can imagine the news made me nervous.

Is it possible to communicate with s7 200 or any other plc?

@sunchymegirl 4 жыл бұрын

Late to the party here but just come across this device. I understand why you describe it as between a Pi and an arduino but why would I choose this over a pi? I am interested in monitoring, data analysing and controlling a CNC machine (and eventually a few) so was thinking of purchasing a Pi 4 and downloading EdgeX Foundry. Would it be recommended instead to purchase a Simatic IOT2040 and use that as a gateway to collect the data from various machines and push the info to the Pi which will run EdgeX or just skip the Pi altogether?

I can point you to exactly what you need then, Raspberry PI based industrial controllers with certification like UL and CE. look at the latest videos here kzfaq.info/sun/PL_atu5RtEPi7v5Hnj1DDt3jL--qiJ3QdQ The IOT2020's run a linux OS but not as compatable as one would like with a PI, these latest reviews are full (Pretty much) compatable with the PI, they run Rasbian Stretch for instance with an update to provide Real Time operation. and one even directly uses a PI Core 3 module with upto 32GB Flash.

Hi Peter. is it possible to extend the number of the I/O? Thanks. Maurizio

@TheBreadboardca 6 жыл бұрын

The simple answer to that is Yes, you can add a SPI or I2C expander IC like the PCF8575 or the MCP23017 / MCP23S17, a simple board with 5V / 3V3 and a few wires is all that is needed + of course drivers to interface to what ever load / input you need. You will loose 2 or 3 pins to the expansion process but gain 16 in this case. There are many other expanders that will also work depending on what you want to drive or monitor.

Forgot to also mention remote IO expansion like using a ESP8266 module. If your IOT is on the network with WIFI, then it is an easy matter to expand IO using MODBUS protocol or other and the ESP is positioned right were it is needed. I have several videos using them with a PI or an IOT2020. search on my channel for Node Red for more, there are also plenty of other folks who have posted ESP projects driven by an Arduino or a version of Linux

Hi! i want to made a machine which has a lot of nodes.... if i want to share only the IP nodes of the main PLC what i need to do?

@TheBreadboardca 4 жыл бұрын

What do you mean by "A lot of Nodes", anyway, I would have your local devices on a class C sub net using a non routable ip address (AKA a private network ip address en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_network ), then have your main PLC eithr multi homed (2 ip addresses on one port) or better still use a PLC that has 2 seperate IP addresses nad ports nad have the second on your externally enabled IP addresses, you may have to create routing table or have a workflow with say node-red or other and send the data you want to share to that other port, so the PLC is acting as a gateway / firewall.

Hi peter, the Frequency is not about 1GHz, according to the datasheet of the Intel Quark x10x0, the maximum frequency is 400 MHz. Also these series of CPU is bugy i.e. Segfault bug.

@TheBreadboardca 6 жыл бұрын

I just confirmed and your absolutely correct, not sure where I ended up with the 1Ghz

yup, I just replied I was wrong in the video :), CPU is definitely running at 400Mhz, not 1000Mhz (1Ghz)

Hi Peter, Have you explored the DI frequency limitation of 20Hz on IOT2000 Expansion? The Siemens manual leaves a "blank" next to High Speed Input Freq: Google document A5E39456816-AB I have a Wood Gasifier, Small Engine, Alternator that I am collecting data off(Shaft Speed 60Hz, Voltage, Current) Need something more robust than my ESP8266 solution
