- 27. Demo : Industrial IoT with Kura Wires
- 28. Kura Wires - Terminology • Composer UI - It is the canvas area for Kura Wires in which the dataflow graph will be created. • Logical Block - A Logical Block is a visual element in the Composer UI which is represented as a node in the Kura Wires dataflow graph.
- 29. Kura Wires – Logical Blocks • Computational Block - A Computational Block is a Logical Block, capable of receiving, processing and emitting data to the connected downstream logical blocks. It can be, for example, data store, data filter, data publisher instances that will be used to manage data. • Wire - A Wire is a logical connection between the Logical Blocks which allows to define a concrete dataflow in Kura Wires. • Asset - An Asset is a Logical Block that is capable of communicating with specific sensors and/or actuators of Industrial Device using specific protocol. • Wire Graph - A Wire Graph is a dataflow graph comprising several aforementioned Logical Blocks which represents an Industrial IoT application scenario.
