The ProfiMessage D device can acquire and analyse any measurement data and automatically transmit it to a cloud database. The device is equipped with extensive signal processing functions and interfaces and uses the latest measurement technology to make it an ideal IoT device. In this way, users gain an optimal environment to process and transmit data from their machines, systems and test stands. A display is available to read out important configuration data and measurement values on-site and without requiring PC support.

Powerful processor technology gives the ProfiMessage D device the resources needed for "industrial analytics". Analysis functions are highly intuitive to set up and use and simplify the computation, analysis and monitoring of data.

The ProfiMessage D devices feature universal sensor inputs, a high level of data security, and a diverse range of interfaces. Their modular design is based on master and slave devices which can be equipped with one or two I/O modules. Slave devices can be decentrally located and managed from a single master device. A large number of I/O modules make the devices adaptable to different types of sensor and different channel numbers. The I/O modules are equipped with 8–24 analog or digital inputs and outputs. Depending on the I/O module being used, each input can be individually configured for mV, mA, RTDs and thermocouples.
