Overview

MQTT interface is able to connect to one or more MQTT brokers – the NETx Server has no built-in broker. For each broker, MQTT topic can be defined that are represented as Server Items. It is possible to publish data changes to these topic (writable Server Items). In addition it is possible to  subscribe to these topics for retrieving data changes (readable Server Items).

The interface is available for free. Each defined MQTT data point is decreasing the available license data points by one.
