Problem / solution guide
Industrial Sensor Data to MQTT
Convert industrial sensor and Modbus data into MQTT payloads for customer cloud or IoT platforms.
Hardware in this guide
Representative product-family images. The exact model, interfaces and enclosure are confirmed in the written quotation.
Need hardware recommendations for this problem?
Send the measured signals, alarm rules, site power and communication constraints. We will return a hardware configuration for quotation.
Problem to solve
Field sensors rarely speak the exact cloud format a buyer wants. A gateway must poll, map and publish data predictably.
Measurements that matter
- Sensor value and unit
- Register or input status
- MQTT topic and payload
- Publish success and retry state
Suggested hardware configuration
- RS485 or IO acquisition module
- Edge IoT gateway
- MQTT topic and payload mapping
- Cloud endpoint test before shipment
Typical Hardware Architecture
Final system design, software integration, PLC/SCADA programming and site installation are handled by the customer or their system integrator.
RTU / Data Logger
RS485 to Ethernet Gateway / Serial Server
Customer system
Customer's SCADA / Cloud / PLC System
Information needed before quotation
- Sensor list and protocol
- Register map
- Broker endpoint and authentication
- Payload example
Recommended next steps
- Review MQTT acquisition
- Compare MQTT and HTTP
- Prepare payload sample

FAQ
What does SunGene need before quoting Industrial Sensor Data to MQTT?
Please provide sensor list and protocol, register map, broker endpoint and authentication, payload example. These inputs determine the sensor, gateway, power and integration path.
Is this a software-only service?
No. SunGene supplies sensors, gateways, field connectivity hardware and documented data-handoff interfaces for the buyer or integrator. Software-platform configuration and operation are outside the standard hardware scope.
Can SunGene support custom configuration if needed?
Yes, after the hardware configuration, certificates, sample quantity and documentation scope are clear.
Which technologies are usually considered?
The typical shortlist includes MQTT, RS485, Modbus RTU, IoT gateway. Final selection depends on site constraints and target country requirements.
