Access your equipment from anywhere, at any time.
Access your equipment from anywhere, at any time
Can you imagine knowing what is happening in your factory even when you are not there? That in the blink of an eye, you could obtain data from your equipment to make decisions remotely. Yes, it seems utopian. No, it is not: the Ewon devices, the flagship of HMS Networks, are offered as secure remote access (Cosy+) and data acquisition (Flexy) solutions to control and retrieve valuable information from your equipment, wherever you are.
Thanks to the IIoT, these devices boost the productivity of machinery manufacturers and end users, with unparalleled advantages for any sector that adopts them.
Ewon Cosy+, the Solution for Remote Access
The Ewon Cosy+ is the gateway that connects devices connected to a LAN network, thanks to the creation, in its WAN interface, of a VPN tunnel from which PC clients can access. In addition, it can tunnel the USB port, so that devices connected in this way are accessible from anywhere in the world.
It has different versions that vary according to the type of access:
- Ethernet
- Ethernet + Wifi
- Ethernet + 3G
- Ethernet + 4G
How does it work?
The manufacturer has a VPN in the cloud, called Talk2m, which avoids the need to open input and output ports for the web (HTTPS, port 443).
VPN configuration on a PC
Install a software client on the PC and log in with an account to create a tunnel to the Talk2m cloud. Then, add the key (an alphanumeric code) of the Ewon Cosy+ devices you want to access. Thus, the VPN knows that the device belongs to you.
VPN configuration on an Ewon Cosy+
Follow the steps in the Wizard, which are very simple, for the time, network, and internet connection behavior configuration.
Once you have both the PC and the Cosy+ online, a tunnel is established between them to access all the LAN devices configured in the user account.
Why choose it?
Easy setup
No, you do not need to be an expert in the field to configure it.
Suitable for any situation and person
Includes cloud service (Talk2M VPN) and desktop, mobile, and web clients, all of them free.
High level of security
Integrates a hardware security level, with the most current protocols, to ensure the future.
Problems it solves
If you are a machinery manufacturer:
Avoid unnecessary trips for configurations and start-ups.
If you are a machinery user:
Access your machine data from wherever you need with internet.
Ewon Cosy+ Makes the Difference
Most equivalent products on the market require you to configure a VPN from scratch. The same does not happen with Ewon Cosy+: its Plug and Play remote access capability allows you to access the pre-configured VPN in the cloud simply by connecting to the internet. Therefore, you only need to connect the devices to the cloud, provide them with wireless connectivity, and voilà!
And Ewon Flexy?
In addition to the remote access offered by Cosy+, the second solution offered by the manufacturer, Ewon Flexy, is capable of collecting data from almost any machine.
It is a modular hardware that is configured through its web interface. The combination of Flexy and the Talk2M VPN allows users to connect to their machines and collect data regardless of where they are installed.
Why choose it?
Easy data acquisition and registration
Its compatibility with a wide range of industrial protocols, including OPC UA, helps to collect data from multiple PLCs, sensors and more.
Creation of simple IIoT projects in a few minutes
With just a couple of clicks, enable alarm notifications or performance monitoring via KPI dashboards in the cloud.
Performing a greater number of future tasks with the integrated connectors and APIs
Even if you do not have a data application now, when the time comes, make sure you can connect to a local or cloud application and make your machine smarter.
Problems it solves
It has communication drivers to store and provide remote access to the data for later use.
Acts as a gateway to exchange data between devices/protocols, either locally (MPI to Modbus TCP) or externally (OPC UA).
How Does it Do it?
Like Ewon Cosy+, its configuration for remote access is done through a client on the PC, adding the Ewon Flexy key to create a tunnel to the Talk2m cloud between both devices.
On the other hand, the communication drivers available are configured through TAGS that allow advanced functionalities to be carried out such as data storage, creation of graphs or sending alarms.
A step ahead with Ewon Flexy
Modular device
Fantastic possibility of choosing the modules according to the protocol (RS232, RS485, MPI, USB serial port or input and output modules) and, therefore, the internet connection interface (4G, Ethernet or Wifi).
Multiple communication drivers
Modbus RTU, Modbus TCP, Uni-Telway, EtherNet/IP, DF1, FINS TCP, FINS Hostlink, ISO TCP, PPI, MPI, Profibus, Mitsubishi FX, Hitachi EH and ASCII.
Programming environment based on Basic or Java
Add advanced logic, triggers or alarms to your system from your data.
Configuration of dashboards in the blink of an eye
Flexy has viewON, a web tool to manage your metrics without programming or complications. You only need to acquire the data through TAGS from the drivers or those calculated by the environment in which you are.
