TilliT Edge
TilliT Edge software
TilliT uses a specialised Internet of Things (IoT) device called TilliT Edge to establish a digital connection between your equipment and operators. TilliT Edge is highly versatile, allowing for seamless integration with various devices, including SCADA systems, PLCs, or wireless counters, making it effortless to install in any production environment without complexity.
TilliT Edge is shipped ready to be integrated into your facility, without the need for coding or engineering. It supports a wide range of protocols, including OPC-UA, Ethernet/IP, Profinet, and Modbus.
TilliT Edge Device
TilliT Edge can be installed two different ways.
Using Edge Device
You will receive a physical device with the preloaded TilliT Edge software. This device is specifically selected to be placed on the production floor, inside a control cabinet, and uses two network interfaces to separate your business and automation network. Choose this option if you require direct connection to PLC's. This setup will require an electrician to install the device.

TilliT Edge Device level firewall
All TilliT Edge devices come with an inbuilt firewall service called iptables. It restricts what connections the device is allowed to make. You can see the exact rules that we have setup below. To summarize, the device will never allow an external device to initate a connection, all connections are initiated by the TilliT Edge device.
