MqttHost: MQTT server's hostnameMqttPort: MQTT server's port numberMqttClientId: Client ID used in the connectionMqttUserName/MqttPassword : User/Password login for the MQTT server.MqttPrivateKey/MqttCert : Client certificate and its key file for the secured connection.MqttCACert : CA certificate for the secured connection.AssetTopic - Prefix for the Assets. Default: MTConnect/Asset/[device]CurrentTopic - Prefix for the Current. Default: MTConnect/Current/[device]ProbeTopic - Prefix for the Device Model topic. Default: MTConnect/Probe/[device]Note: The
[device]will be replace with the uuid of each device. Other patterns can be created, for example:MTConnect/[device]/Probewill group by device instead of operation.
SampleTopic - Prefix for the Sample. Default: MTConnect/Current/[device]LastWillTopic - The topic used for the last will and testament for an agent. Default: MTConnect/Probe/[device]/AvailabilityNote: The value will be
AVAILABLEwhen the Agent is publishing and connected and will publishUNAVAILABLEwhen the agent disconnects from the broker.
MqttCurrentInterval - The frequency of publishing currents. Acts like a keyframe in a video stream. Default: 10000msMqttSampleInterval - The frequency of publishing samples. Works the same way as interval in the rest call. Group observations up and publish with the minimum interval given. If nothing is available, will wait until an observation arrives to publish. Default: 500msMqttSampleCount - The maximum number of observations to publish at one time. Default: 1000
