Frequently Asked Questions

Can I run multiple gateways?

Yes! Deploy multiple gateway instances for: - High availability - Load distribution - Geographic separation

Use different Edge Node IDs for each instance.

What devices are supported?

Any device supporting Modbus TCP protocol. Common devices: - PLCs (Allen-Bradley, Siemens, Schneider, etc.) - VFDs (ABB, Danfoss, Yaskawa, etc.) - Power meters - Temperature controllers - Flow meters - Custom Modbus devices

Can I monitor devices on different networks?

Yes, if the gateway can route to those networks. Consider: - VPN connections - Multiple network interfaces - Network routing configuration

How many devices can one gateway handle?

Depends on: - Device count: 10-100+ typical - Tags per device: Unlimited - Polling rates: Balance based on CPU/network - Hardware specifications

See System Requirements for scaling guidance.

Is my data secure?

Yes, multiple security layers: - SSO authentication - Multi-tenant isolation - TLS encryption (MQTT/HTTPS) - Role-based access control - Audit logging

See Security & Authentication for details.

Can I export my configuration?

Device templates can be exported to JSON. For full system backup: - PostgreSQL database dump - Configuration file backup

What if my MQTT broker goes offline?

Built-in broker redundancy: - Automatic failover to secondary broker - Backfill queue stores data during outages - Automatic reconnection and data replay

See Broker Redundancy.

Can I control devices remotely?

Yes, via Sparkplug DCMD commands: - Write values to Modbus registers - Trigger burst polling - Send control commands

See Remote Commands.

How do I upgrade to a new version?

  1. Back up database
  2. Stop gateway service
  3. Replace binary
  4. Run any migration scripts
  5. Start gateway service
  6. Verify operation

Detailed upgrade instructions provided with each release.

Where is my data stored?

  • Configuration: PostgreSQL database
  • Real-time data: Memory (published to MQTT)
  • Command logs: PostgreSQL database
  • Backfill queue: PostgreSQL database

The gateway is not a historian - subscribe to MQTT for data persistence.
