Custom Data Collectors
Collect more data from devices in your network, using custom code or external sources.
Overview
System Integrators, dealers and advanced end customers can monitor hardware devices and services that are not covered by existing connectors by creating custom modules.
The two main methods supported are:
- Smart Edge / Control System
- Cloud to Cloud Integration
In-depth information is available in the Partner Portal section on System Integrators.
Smart Edge / Control System
A control system (e.g. Crestron's RMCX line) can be extended to run custom code created by a developer that pulls information from systems that are not currently supported by the cloud solution. The collected information can be sent to the cloud and be displayed as "any other device" in the portal.
This requires familiarity with a control system or window/linux/etc machine (e.g. NUC) and a developer with knowledge of writing software on these platforms and cloud APIs.
Cloud 2 Cloud
With this method a software connector is made between Xyte and any other cloud solution, where information is pulled from the cloud can be pushed to Xyte to allow a single pane of glass monitoring, of both Xyte supported devices and 3rd party cloud.
This requires a developer with knowledge of working with cloud APIs
