Q: Device management – cloud version 1.14

Take advantage of the new features: Scan: find available devices within range of your base station. Register: quickly and easily connect wireless devices. Unregister: effortlessly disconnect already connected devices. You can also optimise your data transfer and aggregation according to your needs in device management. Determine the transmission interval and the amount of data transmitted to the cloud. Choose whether you want to receive average or maximum values – for less traffic and easier evaluation. This enables you to identify any changes to the values at a glance. Our IIoT core device now also supports wireless devices such as Bluetooth Mesh, which can be easily integrated via device management. The new network view means you can keep an eye on everything! You can now display the physical topology more clearly. The tree-like structure of this view enables you to see at any time the level a particular device is on.

Q: Saved Configurations – moneo configure – Cloud Version 05/2025

No Data Loss After Changing IP Address The Agent Connector and the ifm Device (IoT Core) Connector now offer the ability to adjust connector settings such as IP and port on the "Device Details and Data Streams" page for already onboarded devices. If the user wants to adjust the IP address of a master device later, no data will be lost due to off- and onboarding.

Q: edgeConnect – moneo OS – Cloud Version 05/2025

IoT Core Connector The IoT Core Connector now supports encrypted communication. In moneo, you can choose whether the connection to the target system should be established via HTTPS. You can add master devices and enter a username and password via a user interface. This provides you with a secure and user-friendly way to manage IoT devices. Encrypted communication protects the data, while the simple configuration of master devices makes the process more efficient and secure. Further details and important information can be found in the moneo Device Management help. Webhook A new endpoint allows the transmission of ticket data from moneo via webhook. This data can then be processed and used in a third-party system. There are numerous options for exporting data. In addition to webhook transmission, data can be forwarded to cloud services such as Azure or AWS, as well as to third-party systems via MQTT or OPC UA. Data can also be retrieved via the Public API.

Accepted Answer

No Data Loss After Changing IP Address

The Agent Connector and the ifm Device (IoT Core) Connector now offer the ability to adjust connector settings such as IP and port on the "Device Details and Data Streams" page for already onboarded devices.

If the user wants to adjust the IP address of a master device later, no data will be lost due to off- and onboarding.

Question 4

New openness: moneo now speaks generic MQTT

Accepted Answer

Plain MQTT Connector: moneo is expanding its connectivity with a generic MQTT interface. This means that customers who use non-ifm devices can now also connect their MQTT-capable systems directly to moneo. moneo can now bring in data from IT systems and output it again - regardless of the device manufacturer.

For seamless integration, the connected systems must follow the specific topic structure and JSON semantics of moneo. This ensures standardised data processing and enables moneo to fully integrate devices from other manufacturers into the existing ecosystem. This allows customers to expand their device base with minimal effort without having to forego the familiar moneo functionalities.

Question 5

Directly connected: moneo now speaks Simatic S7

Accepted Answer

Simatic S7 Connector: With this connector, it is possible to connect data directly from a Siemens controller. The onboarding dialogue contains predefined standard settings for immediate use. However, user-defined entries are also possible. Note: The S7 data types differ from the moneo data types. It is therefore important that you enter the correct data type in the "Types" field.

Question 7

edgeConnect – cloud version 1.14

Accepted Answer

There are also updates to our edgeConnect! You now have expanded options for viewing and evaluating your data sources. Activate minimum, maximum and average values to make your data analysis even more precise. For more information, please refer to the moneo edgeConnect documentation.

Question 8

remoteConnect – cloud version 1.14

Accepted Answer

Fix problems, change settings or make an update – all remotely, regardless of location? The new remoteConnect tool for remote access to your application now makes this possible! Thanks to a secure end-to-end connection, it enables remote access to devices and system components such as your edgeGateways, IO-Link masters, ifm VSE, controllers, etc. via the existing network infrastructure.

Service technicians can perform maintenance without an on-site visit. This saves you time and money while improving your ecological footprint. This tool is part of the moneo IIoT Core Cloud licence and is not included in the on-premises version.

Question 9

Monitoring table – cloud version 1.14

Accepted Answer

You can now also display your process values even more precisely: select the number of decimal places and the desired display accuracy.

Question 10

Dashboard – cloud version 1.14

Accepted Answer

Create custom dashboards in seconds! Our solution enables you to easily generate and save dashboard templates from existing dashboards. We also enable you to export and import dashboard templates directly from your hard drive. This means you can have your customised dashboards at your fingertips at all times – for maximum efficiency and flexibility.

Question 11

Layout – Track & Trace – Cloud Version 05/2025

Accepted Answer

Increased Transparency & Improved Visualization

Optimized Readability: Timestamps on the x-axis are rotated to improve visibility.
Continuous Data Display: Day breaks have been removed to ensure seamless representation.
Efficient Item Search: The order of start and end times is considered to facilitate item searches.

Initialization of Elements

Data sources enable the automatic generation of additional attributes for items. This feature ensures smooth and automated data integration, significantly simplifying and accelerating your business processes.

Example: A carton with semi-finished goods and an RFID tag on the outside has been identified. The associated production order number can now be automatically linked in the database. This means that business data, such as a production order number, can be linked in moneo using data sources like a handheld code scanner or a connection to a PLC.

Data Export of Item History

The physical movements and process data of items can be exported to a JSON file. Use your preferred IT tools, such as MS Power BI, for further research and analysis.

By providing easy access to detailed data, you can make informed decisions more quickly. This feature allows you to efficiently export data and work with powerful analysis tools, significantly improving business processes.

Question 12

Live at a glance: Track & Trace shows identification data in real time

Accepted Answer

Track & Trace has a new function for improved visualisation of device data in real time. The new view shows alphanumeric raw values of the ident data sources live and clearly - similar to the familiar monitoring table. The function also enables a decoding preview.

Question 13

Recognised more quickly: Live view shows cause of alarms directly

Accepted Answer

Cause analysis: The new live view makes it much easier to analyse alarms in SmartLimitWatcher. Users no longer have to laboriously navigate through moneo, but instead receive a clear display of all relevant information directly. If required, the user can display the variables used. This makes it immediately recognisable which variable has deviated and led to the alarm (root cause).

Question 14

Simpler & more secure login: Now with single sign-on and ifm ID

Accepted Answer

Single sign-on enables you to securely access your cloud instance via your existing identity provider (e.g. Microsoft Azure).
In addition, it is now possible to log in with ifm ID. This allows users with an account to access both moneo Cloud and the mobile IoT Suite. This increases user-friendliness and security.
