Usage Scenarios
The ioThinx 4530 Series advanced controllers have the high computing power required to easily and
securely upload field site data to the cloud. For cloud connectivity, the ioThinx 4530 comes with Azure,
AWS, and Alibaba Cloud SDKs pre-installed.
Users can take advantage of the built-in cloud examples, removing dependency on the libraries and
toolchain configurations. For better control precision, the Moxa Industrial Linux operating system gives the
ioThinx 4530 Series the capability to handle computations and control actions at the same time. In addition,
the ioThinx 4530 Series helps manage data privacy, and supports both hardware privacy features, such as
TPM (Trusted Platform Module, which is optional), and software privacy features, such as secure boot, to
help users implement cybersecurity protections. For users who are not proficient at using typical PLC
programming languages, the ioThinx 4530 series supports C/C++ and Python, both of which provide more
advanced programming options, to help users easily build their own applications.
