MindSphere Connector

dataFEED MindSphere Connector enables the simple and efficient connectivity not only of all Siemens controllers, from the SIMATIC S5 to the latest SIMATIC S7, but also of a wide range of other controllers, e.g. from Rockwell Automation (Allen-Bradley), Schneider Electric or B&R, to Siemens MindSphere cloud solutions. This makes the process data available for further processing and analysis within MindSphere. Thanks to the integrated Store&Forward functionality, data is buffered when the connection is interrupted and automatically forwarded when the connection is re-established.

Data Integration in MindSphere Cloud Solutions

• Integration of controllers from leading manufacturers (Siemens, B&R, Rockwell Automation, Schneider Electric, Wago, Mitsubishi)
• Cost savings by using existing OPC Classic components
• Use of modules without cloud interface (e.g. SIMATIC S5 PLCs) in MindSphere cloud applications
• Intermediate storage of data in case of disconnection

Simple and Fast Configuration

• Configuration wizard with practice-oriented presettings
• Intuitive graphical user interface with drag & drop support
• Automatic data type conversion between PLC, OPC UA and MindConnect
• No modification to controller program required
• Extensive flexible trigger options

State-of-the-Art Security

• Guarantee of high data security for production applications
• Authentication via certificates
• SSL encryption support
