Industrial Protocol Gateway Design

Design principles for building versatile industrial protocol gateways using ESP32, translating between different fieldbuses and Ethernet protocols.

Implement an SNMP Agent on ESP32 to allow network management systems to monitor and control the device using the Simple Network Management Protocol.

Develop an OPC UA Server on ESP32 to expose its data and services securely to OPC UA Clients, enabling interoperability in industrial systems.

Implement an OPC UA Client on ESP32 to securely connect and exchange data with OPC UA Servers in industrial M2M communication scenarios.

Understand Ethernet/IP fundamentals for ESP32. Learn about CIP objects and implicit/explicit messaging for industrial automation over Ethernet.

Explore CC-Link family of industrial networks (CC-Link, CC-Link IE) and potential ESP32 integration for factory automation in Asia.

Introduction to SERCOS III, an Ethernet-based real-time interface for motion control, and how ESP32 might interact in SERCOS systems.

Overview of Foundation Fieldbus (H1, HSE) and integration to ESP32 into such process automation networks, likely via gateways.

Learn to communicate with HART (Highway Addressable Remote Transducer) field devices using ESP32, often via HART modems or gateways.

Implement an IO-Link Master on ESP32 to communicate with smart IO-Link sensors and actuators for point-to-point digital communication.
