Is Excel alike dealing with sensorEDGE's aggregated IO-Link sensor data - as the real-time processing platform e.g. 'Streamsheets' is offering supporting it - possible? |

Yes this is possible since the sensorEDGE solution is providing the IO-Link-sensor data on MQTT over an Internet hosted MQTT broker. STEP 1: For a simple test sign up for a trial playground account under https://cedalo.com/pro-streamsheets/trial-signup/ and confirm your email address. Image RemovedImage Added STEP 2: You will be receiving another email including your personal cloud hosted Streamsheets Pro URL and username and password. Use the given credentials to login. STEP 3: Create a new Streamsheets App in your workspace by clicking the "+" in the top right corner. Give the app a name. Using a template is not necessary.

Watch your personal "sensorEDGE data service credentials" page in on your www.sensoredge.io account. Image RemovedImage Added b. Copy and paste the information Username/Password/Endpoint URL from the page into the Streamsheets MQTT "Settings" form. Uncheck the "Validate CA Certificate" checkbox! Image Modified d. Watch the MQTT light turning green if there is a connection successfully established Image Added d. Click the Streamsheets MQTT "Subscriptions" tab .as next Image RemovedImage Added e. Click the "+" and copy and paste the base topic into the Topic row Base Topic value of exactly that sensorEDGE device in your list of sensorEDGE devices you want to subscribe to to receive data . Makr from into the column Topic. Make sure the topic name value ends with a hash "#". Image Added STEP 6: Start your Streamsheets sheet by clicking the play button Image Added STEP 7: Watch the JSON coded payload of the incoming messages in the payload window to the left (update rate depends on your configured sensorEDGE data update rate) Image Added STEP 8: a. Draw a line chart on your sheet using the icon Image Added Image Added b. From the payload window drag and drop any value you want to monitor to your sheet. The example shows the object "Temperature" and its value right next to it. Image Added |
c. To draw a chart of a value a helper function such as TIMEAGGREGATE() is neccessary.
Use this function in any other sheet's data cell as shown below. Specify the original value of interest as source, the period and the AggregationMethod as paramters of the function. The examples shows "B2,60,1".

d. For your chart specify the sheet's data cell you want to get displayed. The example shows data cell "B3"
