Page 6: Features
I/O usage and enhances performance of the I/O operations. Daisy-Chain Ethernet Cabling The MQ-7200M Series has a built-in two-port Ethernet switch to implement daisy-chain topology. The cabling is much easier and total costs of cable and switch are significantly reduced. - Page 7 Dual Watchdog The Dual Watchdog consists of a Module Watchdog and a Communication Watchdog. The actions of digital output are also associated to the Dual Watchdog. Module Watchdog is a built-in hardware circuit to monitor the operation of the module and will reset the CPU if a failure occurs in the hardware or the software.
- Page 8 Reset Button The reset button is used to restore all settings to factory defaults. It is very useful especially when the user forgets the IP address to access the MQ-7200M module. Pressing and holding the reset button for at least 3 seconds will restore the module to its factory defaults. For more information, see section “7.4.

Page 31: I/O Settings
4.2 I/O Settings In industrial applications, maintaining a "safe" state for the module's output when power is restored after a power loss caused by either a normal or abnormal event is crucial to prevent accidents. In addition, in the case of host failure or network communication exceptions, it is equally important to output a safety value. -
Page 32: Power-On Value
Power-on Value The user can set the power-on value for each output channel. When the module is powered on normally or reset by the module watchdog, it loads its power-on value. Method: After selecting On or Off, clicking the Apply button to complete the setting. Safe Value The user can set the safe value for each output channel. -
Page 33: Mqtt
4.3 MQTT MQTT is a Client Server publish/subscribe messaging transport protocol. It is light weight, open, simple, and designed so as to be easy to implement. These characteristics make it ideal for use in many situations, including constrained environments such as for communication in Machine to Machine (M2M) and Internet of Things (IoT) contexts where a small code footprint is required and/or network bandwidth is at a premium. -
Page 34: Mqtt Conversation
On the MQTT page, the user can enable/disable the MQTT function, set the broker information, define the Last Will and Testament for announcing a module’s offline message, and obtain the topic names for each I/O. MQTT conversation The user can enable/disable the MQTT function. If the MQTT conversation is disabled, the module will stop publishing messages. -

Page 37: Last Will
Last Will The Last Will and Testament (LWT) function notifies other clients when a client disconnects abnormally. The MQ-7200M can retain the Last Will (LWT) message on the Broker. If the MQ-7200M unexpectedly disconnects, the Broker will send the LWT message to all clients that have subscribed to this Offline topic. -
Page 38: Publications
In the publisher/subscriber model, once subscribe to a topic (or I/O channel), the subscriber can receive the information (status) related to that topic. The publisher can periodically send its content to all subscribers of the topic, or whenever there is new information available. Publications The I/O status can be published to topics based on either a time-driven or event-driven approach. -
Page 39: Digital Outputs
The user can customize the topic name and published conditions for each I/O. If the MQTT conversation feature is enabled, the MQ-7200M will automatically subscribe to all DO topics upon startup.
