Speed Up Your Deployment

Integrating ATLAS into your scenario doesn't have to start from scratch. This section brings together sample integrations with third-party software — ready to import, test and adapt — to reduce the time between "unit connected" and "application up and running".

Each example hides the complexity of ATLAS's native stack (MQTT, Node-RED, InfluxDB, Grafana, Mosquitto) behind reusable and configurable blocks, so the development team can focus on the application rather than on the plumbing.

Who it's for

Profile What they gain
Integrator / customer just starting out A validated starting point, without needing to know ATLAS's internal architecture.
Developer who wants to prototype Ready-made blocks for reading inputs, controlling outputs and visualising data in minutes.
Team evaluating ATLAS A quick way to see the device communicating with tools they already know.

How it works

All examples share the same principles:

  • They are built on ATLAS's MQTT architecture — nothing bypasses the Peripherals Managers; the examples communicate through the standard topics.
  • They are additive — they add an interface/integration layer and do not replace the native stack.
  • They are a starting point, not a black box — the code is exposed and can be changed as needed.
  • They come with installation and validation steps — each subpage includes prerequisites, start-up and a final checklist.

Available integrations

Integration What it demonstrates Ideal for
Node-RED Simplified Flows Demonstration flows with reusable subflows for AI1..AI4, AO1/AO2 and DI/DO, with Dashboard 2.0. Adds a layer of abstraction between the user and the stack. Rapid prototyping, application logic and internal dashboards.
Home Assistant Home Assistant in a Docker container, running alongside the native stack, with MQTT entities for ATLAS inputs and outputs. Interface/integration with the Home Assistant automation and visualisation ecosystem.

In the pipeline

Candidates for future examples (subject to priority):

  • Local Grafana / shared dashboards
  • InfluxDB
  • Modbus RTU and TCP/IP
