LogicMachine Cloud solution

Example: LogicMachine Cloud solution (beta)
       Task

This example shows how to control/monitor specific objects (KNX, ModBus, BACnet, EnOcean, DALI, DMX512, BLE, etc.) on LogicMachine from Android device located anywhere on the internet.

Some notes:

1. LM can be located in LAN with local IP, no public IP is required, no VPNs, no NAT is required on the router

2. You can specify which specific objects can be controlled from the cloud (not the whole installation with sensitive objects e.g. security). These objects are synced with cloud server via secure MQTT connection, almost in real-time

3. This solution uses a native Android app to access cloud

Steps

1. Install the latest firmware in LogicMachine: https://openrb.com/firmwares/

2. On LM’s main screen click on Admin icon, login with admin password

3.Click on + icon to access app store

4. Click on Menu -> Apps and make sure yo update or install Mosaic 2.0 app

10. Sync Cloud button will synchronize with cloud all Mosaic elements including objects, widgets etc. After each change in Mosaic configuration (grp addresses, new widgets etc.), you need to click Sync Cloud button.

11. Create cloud visualization by adding widgets and defining group addresses. You can create several Rooms and when in room, you click on Add New Widget button. After this is done, click Sync. Cloud button
