EDL-Box
Connection of third-party systems to the EDL portal
The EDL-Box serves as a monitoring interface for technical systems and, with its advanced alarm and energy recording function, offers the possibility of monitoring both internal and external systems and investigating their energy use.
- Data acquisition device: The EDL-Box acts as a central data acquisition device that records and processes data from various measuring points.
- Sensors: Sensors are connected to the EDL-Box directly or via an RIO module and continuously provide data on physical and environmental conditions.
- Measuring transducers: Measuring transducers in the EDL-Box convert the raw signals received from sensors into standardized formats so that they can be processed digitally.
- Electricity meters: Data from electricity meters can be read out via the EDL box in order to record and analyze energy consumption.
- Water, gas and oil meters: These supply data to the EDL box to record the consumption of the monitored building.
- Heat and cold meters: These supply data to the EDL box to record the heat and cold consumption of the monitored building.
- Temperature measurements: Integrated or connected temperature sensors measure the temperature via the EDL-Box and provide precise data.
- Humidity sensors: The EDL-Box reads data from humidity sensors to monitor air humidity.
- Air quality sensors: These sensors measure parameters such as CO2 content and VOCs via the EDL-Box to monitor air quality.
- Building automation: The EDL-Box can be integrated into building automation systems to optimize and control processes.
- Energy management: The EDL-Box contributes to energy management by collecting consumption data and making it available for optimizing energy use.
- Interfaces: Standardized interfaces allow the EDL-Box to communicate seamlessly with various bus systems and devices ( (e.g. Modbus TCP/RTU/ASCII, M-Bus, KNX, OPC UA, IEC, SNMP, ...).
- Internet of Things (IoT): As an IoT-capable component, the EDL-Box can network devices and make data available via the Internet (MQTT).
- Data storage: The EDL-Box stores recorded measured values for later analysis and long-term evaluation.
- Real-time monitoring: The EDL-Box enables monitoring (alarms, faults) of the recorded data in real time for prompt reactions.
- Remote readout: The data collected in the EDL-Box can be read out and managed remotely via the EDL portal. Alarms can be acknowledged remotely (via cell phone app).
- Network connection (Ethernet, WLAN, mobile radio): The EDL exclusivity, Matthias We hereby declare the data protection of the A Contact Randy with different network types either via cable (Ethernet) or wireless (WLAN, mobile radio).
- Software integration: The EDL box is designed to easily integrate with existing software for data evaluation and management.
- User-friendliness: User-oriented design of the EDL-Box software ensures easy installation and handling. The software is identical to the control system used and requires no additional training.
- Data security: The EDL-Box includes mechanisms to protect the collected and transmitted data from unauthorized access (encryption, VPN).
- Adaptability: The EDL-Box is designed for flexible customization so that it can be configured for different deployment scenarios.
- Scalability: The EDL-Box is designed in such a way that it can be expanded as the measuring range or data acquisition requirements increase.
