Live data from the Ewon Flexy devices is accessed using the M2Web service of the Talk2M cloud, provided with each device at no cost. XLReporter periodically collects the live data directly from the remote equipment such as a PLC (connected to the device) and populates the report using "Report As You Run Technology". The data can optionally be stored to a database. The transfer uses secure HTTPS with no public IP exposure.
The reports and dashboards are distributed by email, server, printer, XLReporter's web portal or a hosted third party cloud e.g., Azure.
