  • Page 5: Introduction

    The Universal IoT Gateway product is a device that enables communication between transmitters from Tekon's DUOS and PLUS product families and third-party transmitters with IoT platforms through integration with REST API (Tekon IoT Platform) and MQTT (third-party platform). The Universal IoT Gateway also utilizes the Modbus TCP/IP and Ethernet communication protocols for data transmission to and from the cloud and the Modbus RTU protocol for local network communications.
