Hello, good morning.

I'm starting to investigate the EAM module and I have a question.

Is it possible use EAM module with MQTT connection or is it necessary a gateway network connection?

If it is not possible, are there any alternative?

I'm waiting for your answer.

Best regards.

The EAM module uses a Gateway Network connection.
