Connect, Detect, Alert: Turning Shopfloor Events into Fast Action

Industrial machines continuously generate valuable operational data. Yet many critical events remain buried in dashboards, logs, or SCADA systems until someone happens to notice them. When every minute counts, delayed response can lead to unnecessary downtime, production losses, and increased maintenance costs.

Join Hilscher and Derdack to learn how industrial connectivity and intelligent mobile alerting with SIGNL4 work together to bridge the gap between machine events and human action.

During this webinar, you'll see how Hilscher connects machines, sensors, and industrial networks to make shopfloor data available through modern edge technologies such as MQTT and Node-RED. You'll then discover how SIGNL4 transforms detected events into reliable mobile alerts, automatically notifying the responsible personnel via push notifications, SMS, or voice calls, while supporting escalation policies, shift scheduling, and team collaboration.

A live demonstration will showcase the complete workflow—from an industrial sensor generating a critical event, through event detection in Node-RED, to mobile alerting, acknowledgement, and incident resolution.

Learning Objectives:

• How to make industrial machine and sensor data available for edge applications
• How Node-RED can detect critical operating conditions
• How SIGNL4 delivers reliable mobile alerts to the right people7
• How escalation rules, shift planning, and acknowledgement workflows improve incident response
• How to reduce downtime by connecting OT data directly to operational teams
