The Spider67 Mobile series consists of digital and analog gateways and I/O extension modules for the Internet of Things (IoT). The Spider67 Mobile series operates independently of a control unit such as a PLC, NC or other control systems. The logical controller is a self-contained system and runs centrally via the user platform (cloud computing).
General description Product characteristics ⚫ Connection: M12 circular connector, protection class IP67 ⚫ Transmission: Mobile radio or WLAN. ⚫ Requires Bluetooth configuration! Configuration as Android or iOS app. ⚫ The SPMB-16DIO-001, SPMB-16DIO-002 and SPMB-16DIO-003 modules allow gateway expansion with a maximum of 6x I/O submodules. ⚫...
3.5.3 Elco-IoTHub All products of the Spider67 Mobile series are factory connected to Elco-IoTHub. The IoTHub is a powerful cloud environment that can be flexibly extended and connected in all directions. The complete data processing takes place in this system. For easier visualisation of the Spider67 Mobile application, Elco provides another web interface (Web-UI), which is the interface between customer and backend.
Hardware HARDWARE Hardware environment ⚫ Server Servers running the IoTHub and the Spider67 Mobile application platform (cloud version, local server version) and related software and network support resources. ⚫ Computer/web access and Android/iOS mobile devices We recommend a computer with a Google Chrome Browser to configure the user platform. An Android or iOS device is required to configure the hardware.
Page 19
Hardware Abb. 2. Example of a network Fig. 2 shows an example of a network with the Spider67 Mobile. The Spider67 Mobile is installed in the field to collect sensor data. The sensor data is transmitted to the IoTHub via mobile radio and stored and processed there. From the IoTHub, Elco provides a standard web interface for configuring the Spider67 Mobile via API.

Page 26
Hardware 4.3.6 Description of the SPMB-16DIO module To simplify the management of the platform configuration and the protocol definition, the Spider67 Mobile module is defined as 0 ~ X in the standard communication protocol of the IoTHub. NOTE This X is not a fixed value for all application modes, the value depends on the number of final extensions.
Page 27
Hardware 4.3.7 Port and module numbering To simplify the configuration management, the IoTHub system defines each group of 4 I/O ports as a module by default. The SPMB-16DIO series ports of the P0 ~ P3 gateways are therefore defined as Module_0.

Application platform • The channel channel_1 serves as a feedback channel and redundantly displays the status of the chip. This channel only serves as an input for the IoTHub and constantly polls the BLE chip for the function. The remaining channels of the submodule are kept free for customer projects and are not used in the standard unit.
