Overview

Functions

"Asset Manager" is a MindSphere application belonging to the Industrial IoT platform of Siemens. In the "Asset Manager", using assets, you model the structure of an industrial process within MindSphere.

The specific functions and configuration options for the "SINUMERIK" area are discussed in the following.

Using an asset type, you can define which aspects should be integrated into the template. Using asset types, you have the option of creating a template, e.g. for several devices, and linking this with your aspects. When creating a new asset, you can access the template or the type.

Aspects are combined, preconfigured data and form the context for evaluating industrial processes. An aspect can comprise several variables. Within an industrial process, assets transfer the aspects into the MindSphere application as time series data.
