Equipment
Equipment refers to the connected PLCs that you supervise with Kodeno. This section guides you through the configuration and use of your equipment.
What is Equipment?
Kodeno equipment is a programmable logic controller (PLC) connected to the Internet that allows you to:
- Read sensors (digital, analog inputs, temperatures)
- Control actuators (digital, analog outputs)
- Execute automation scenarios
- Schedule timed actions
Each equipment has a unique serial number (MAC address) that identifies it on the network.
Input/Output Types
Digital Inputs (DI)
Two-state sensors: ON or OFF
- Presence detectors
- Switches
- Dry contacts
Analog Inputs (AI)
Sensors measuring continuous values (0-10V or 4-20mA)
- Light sensors
- Humidity sensors
- Pressure sensors
PT1000 Inputs (temperature)
High-precision temperature probes
- Measurement in degrees Celsius
- Industrial precision
Digital Outputs (DO)
On/off commands
- Relays
- Solenoid valves
- Lighting
Analog Outputs (AO)
Variable value commands (0-10V)
- Variable speed drives
- Proportional valves
- Dimmers
Accessing Your Equipment
In the sidebar menu, click on "Equipment" to see the dropdown list of all your equipment. Each equipment is a direct link to its configuration page.
Equipment Tabs
An equipment page is organized into several tabs:
| Tab | Description |
|---|---|
| Dashboard | Real-time status view |
| Configuration | I/O setup |
| S7 Configuration | Siemens S7 connection (if enabled) |
| S7 Log | S7 data reading |
| Scheduling | Time scheduling |
| Analysis | History and charts |
| Settings | Advanced configuration |
Add Equipment
- Access your client space
- Click on the "Equipment" tab
- Click "New Equipment"
- Fill in:
- Name: Equipment identifier
- Serial Number: PLC MAC address
- Type: PLC model
- Site (optional): Location
- Validate creation
Each equipment requires a valid license to be operational. Without a license, the equipment will appear in limited mode.
Connection Status
The equipment connection status is displayed by badges:
| Badge | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 🟢 Connected | Equipment is communicating in real-time |
| 🔴 Disconnected | No communication for more than 30 seconds |
| 🟡 Connecting | Connection attempt in progress |
Modify Equipment
- Access the equipment page
- Click the "Edit" button (pencil icon)
- Modify the name or associated site
- Save changes
Delete Equipment
Deleting equipment is permanent and also deletes all associated scenarios and schedules.
- Access the equipment page
- Click the "Delete" button
- Confirm deletion
Visual Representation
The equipment page displays a graphical representation of the PLC with:
- Connected extension modules
- Real-time status of each input/output
- Visual indicators (LEDs)
