If your production environment has old machinery, you can collect data using RS232 or RS485 serial ports. You can set up the connection by using one of the following:

 to see what drivers can connect to serial devices using a physical gateway as the connecting device. Litmus Edge will collect data using the typical protocol of the source machine/PLC you connect. 

Review troubleshooting information related to not being able to collect data from RS232/485 serial machines.
