Introduction

IoT Simulator Hub is a tool to assist in the testing and verification of IoT control systems.

It allows you to define IoT devices and sensors without the need for expensive hardware. This freedom enables you to vary the data collected from devices in ways that are impossible with real hardware in the loop.

For example, temperature sensors:

It is difficult, to control the current temperature from a sensor. With IoT Simulator Hub, it is as easy as writing to a register.

You can then verify that your IoT control system has performed any actions in response to reading the data

The tool offers both a device and management API to control the defines IoT sensors.

• The Management API is designed to allow the setting and reading of device registers for a test control system. This is external to any hardware under test.
• The device API is designed to allow hardware under test to easily access a device and its registers. For example you can send a Modbus data packet directly via the API.
