Connecting the ACE-GTW-4G gateway with ThingSpeak Broker

 

Setup your ACE-GTW-4G Gateway

Thanks to change with your data the:

  • ID
    • Abc1EfGhIj2KlMnOpQ3 in the example
  • Pasword
    • X1y2ZaBcDE34FgHiJkLm in the example
  • Channels tag name
    • channels/123456/publish

For your information, in this configuration:

  • 192.168.8.200 is a Modbus-TCP server device that is accessed by the gateway
  • No device on USB port
  • 192.168.8.8 is the LAN IP Gateway
  • 192.168.111.xxx is the WiFi WWAN port with Internet access

Be sure that :

  • The GTW time is up to date (Need for TLS certificate)
  • No “System Functions” activated in “System Functions – Subscribe” tab
  • Only 1 tag PUB for your first test, like “channels/123456/publish” but with your data
  • No Common tag prefix/suffix in “Topics – General Settings” tab
  • Respect the format “field1=@” for the payload
