I am trying to publish data via mqtt from an instance of ignition edge to a HiveMQ mqtt broker.
When checking the data e.g. with MQTT Explorer or MQTT.fx. I only get unreadable data like this:
�����.0
ProductionTest���. 8J
Quality�P�
When I connect my Edge device with Ignition Gateway (MQTT Engine + MQTT Distributor), I can read all the tags and values just fine.
Would be great if you had some ideas, why the one setup works and the other does not.
Thank you for your reply. I am using MQTTX broker.
By changing the data format in the transmission server setting can able to receive the data as payload.
MQTT Explorer v0.4.0 Beta 4 also have Sparkplug support, but they essentially decode the Protobuf message to JSON.
My problem with the client built into the Chariot broker is that it's part of the broker and not a standalone app that can be launched. I don't necessarily want to run/install the broker just to use the client.
