IoT Hub Url

Host name of the IoT where to send the data, responsible for communication.

Device ID

The device name as defined in IoT Hub

Device Key

The device key as defined in IoT Hub

Transport Protocol

The transport protocol is used to send the data to the IoT Hub (AMQP or MQTT). When AMQP protocol is used, the traffic on port 5671 should be enabled on the system running the IoT SCADA Manager in order to allow the communication with IoT Hub to work

All these fields are required in order to be able to send/receive data to/from IoT Hub.
