IO-Link Sensors Ascend Into Azure Cloud

Comtrol now implements Microsoft Azure’s IoT Gateway SDK on all of its IO-Link Masters.

Comtrol’s MultiLink technology allows IO-Link sensor data (status, events, and process data) to integrate directly with the Azure IoT Hub while simultaneously communicating with the sensor data to the PLC controller. Comtrol’s IO-Link Masters - with IoT Gateway functionality - communicate with sensors and send information to the Azure IoT Hub, which in turn can make it available to Azure Stream Analytics and other cloud-based applications.
