Reporting & Notifications
Your Industrial Edge Gateway connection hub for Email, Microsoft Teams, Slack, and browser notifications.
The Reports & Notifications feature allows you to receive information from your industrial devices without switching between multiple applications. Notifications and reports can be delivered directly to your email, collaboration tools, or accessed through your browser.
After completing the setup using the SICON.Toolbox App, you can configure the gateway to automatically send device status updates, alerts, and reports to your preferred communication platform.
Overview
Managing industrial device communications across multiple systems can quickly become complex. Important information may be scattered across dashboards, monitoring tools, and logs.
The Reports & Notifications feature centralizes device communication by automatically distributing updates to the platforms your team already uses.
Instead of constantly monitoring device dashboards, your team receives automated notifications whenever important events occur.
This ensures:
Faster responses to issues
Improved operational visibility
Better collaboration across teams
