SM Stack/Node-Red Remote Accessible DAQ and Control

Hi All! I would like to use sequent's stackable cards with Node Red to create a remotely accessible/controllable system. I'll have a variety of actuators and sensors connected to multi i/o cards.

It seems like I should be able to do this with MQTT nodes sending/receiving data to an AWS project that will have a web app and database. I'm hoping to be able to use the web app to view data from a remote computer or mobile device, and also to be able to control things from there. Is there an easier way to do this?

I've noticed a Remote-RED app, but I'd like to be in control of my data completely, not relying on other's servers.

Is there a Node Red palette in the works for the Multi-IO card, or, is it possible to use nodes from a different palette, like "node-red-contrib-sm-ind" ? Also, is a node red tutorial in the works for this card?

Hi,

The Node_RED drivers for this card are in the development but you can use exec node to run multiio command and access all the card features.

im currently doing this across mulitple hvac systems; steam,DX staged cooling, Chillers, Boilers, Fan Coil Units, And Vavs. I have remote access to all of my systems. I also push data from Node red to influxdb, then export to grafana for a view only dashboard for my clients, onsite techs have remote full acess of the ui dashboard i set in Node red. I use mqtt to only wire one fan coil unit when i have to in the room due to the fact that my system is in the drop cieling at that point. feel free to reach out. :) Andrew.jewellsr@gmail.com
