Internet of Things (IoT)¶
Odoo Internet of Things (IoT) allows to connect physical devices such as barcode scanners, receipt printers, payment terminals, measurement tools, etc. to an Odoo database using an IoT system.
The following IoT systems are supported:
IoT box: micro-computer, plug-and-play device (i.e., the Odoo IoT program is pre-installed);
Windows virtual IoT: Odoo IoT program for Windows that can be installed on a Windows computer.
Note
MRP devices, including cameras and measurement tools, are not compatible with the Windows virtual IoT.
Multiple IoT systems can be used at the same time.
It is also possible to create a Windows Virtual Machine on a MacOS/Linux computer. However, this option is not supported by Odoo, and no troubleshooting assistance will be provided.
IoT box subscription¶
An IoT box subscription is required for production use of IoT systems and generating the HTTPS certificate. It is created automatically when an IoT system is connected to the database. If you have issues related to your subscription, contact the database’s account manager or Odoo partner for assistance.
