Create Machine Models

To add new models, go to Models and click on + Add Model,

and the following window will be presented:

  • Name
    Name of the new model
  • Model ID
    Identifier for that machine model
  • Connector
    How the machine will interface with Things5
    • MQTT
    • Custom
      Only in special cases does the model not interface in MQTT

We can choose to flag:

  • Firmware Upgradable
    If we do not flag this parameter, the firmware cannot be upgraded to new versions
  • Supports Provisioning
    Generates a device certificate for an already created device on things5.
  • Supports VPN
    Used to connect via VPN (things5OS only)
  • Things5 OS
  • Supports Recipes
    If supported, a recipe is the digital twin of a program that is available on the physical device
  • HACCP Enabled
    With this option we can generate HACCP reports for that model device
  • Selective parameters reading
    to filter the type of Diagnostics
  • Show Gaps
    Shows gaps in chart when data have been missing for time
  • Write Only Changed Parameters

And then to be able to insert an image of the model (preferably square) and the range of HACCP reports.
