Smart I/O and Modbus to MQTT Gateway
Control Solutions’ ValuPoint VP6-1460 connects physical I/O (e.g. sensors) to the Internet. In addition, the VP6-1460 turns any Modbus device into a Thing on the Internet of Things. The VP6-1460 will continuously monitor connected sensors. The VP6-1460 will also poll one or more Modbus RTU and/or Modbus TCP devices, collecting data from the list of registers you provide. Based on rules you create, the VP6-1460 will decide if and when to publish that data to the MQTT broker (server). You can also configure the VP6-1460 MQTT client to subscribe to data coming from the MQTT broker, which you can then write out to local I/O or Modbus devices to manage setpoints and the like.
ThingsBoard Support
The VP6-1460 MQTT client includes support for ThingsBoard’s unique MQTT API that allows you to connect your VP6-1460 data points to dashboard widgets such as gauges, knobs, buttons, and charts. Learn more about ThingsBoard here.
AWS IoT Support
The VP6-1460 includes everything necessary to connect to Amazon Web Services (AWS) IoT support using MQTT. Once the IoT connection is made, your VP6-1460 data can make its way to an AWS database, AWS notification services (e.g. email alerts, text messages), and a variety of analytics tools including QuickSight which makes it quite easy to quickly graph your data.

Mosquitto MQTT Support
The VP6-1460 MQTT client works well with the widely used open source community supported Mosquitto MQTT broker available at .. Simply turn off features unique to ThingsBoard or AWS IoT when using Mosquitto MQTT.
Cloud Not Required!
The VP6-1460 is also suitable for stand-alone remote monitoring use. The VP6-1460 includes alarm monitoring with email notifications using its internal secure email client, local data logging with CSV files emailed to you instead of sending data to the cloud, and a real time scheduler for date and time scheduling.
