The five stages

What happens to your data, step by step

01

Acquire at the source

The gateway acts as a Modbus RTU master on RS485 and a Modbus TCP client on Ethernet, polling meters, PLCs, transmitters and Wiman I/O cards on a schedule you define.

02

Map & normalise

Raw registers are mapped to named tags with engineering units, scaling and data types — so a kWh is a kWh everywhere, not register 40087.

03

Buffer & decide at the edge

Readings are time-stamped and buffered locally. Edge triggers evaluate thresholds and conditions, raising alarms or events the moment they happen — even before the cloud sees the data.

04

Publish securely

Data is published upstream over MQTT/MQTTS or HTTP/HTTPS to one or two servers at once. SSL/TLS and certificate-based auth protect it in transit on PRO and MAX models.

05

Arrive without gaps

If the network drops, store-and-forward holds the data and replays it in order when the link returns. Your dashboards, SCADA and reports stay complete.

Inside the gateway

Edge intelligence, not just a pipe

A Wiman gateway does real work at the edge — so your platform receives clean, named, reliable data, and your site stays protected even when the link is down.

Multi-protocol polling

Modbus RTU + Modbus TCP downstream, concurrent serial and Ethernet field buses.

Tag mapping & scaling

Per-register scaling, units and data types resolved at the edge, not the dashboard.

Up to 3000 tags

Scales from a single panel to a large multi-feeder plant on one device.

Store & forward

No data loss through outages — buffered locally, replayed in order.

SSL & dual-server

Encrypted publishing to primary + redundant endpoints on PRO/MAX.

Edge triggers & alerts

Threshold and condition logic raises events and SMS/alarms locally.

One protocol family

A documented stack, end to end

Because we own the firmware and the protocol, every layer is documented and consistent across the whole range — from a LITE gateway to the flagship MAX.
