Integrations & protocol compatibility
Meshkindle is not a BMS replacement. It adds a wireless sensor layer that integrates directly into the Johnson Controls, Siemens, and Honeywell platforms your facility team already operates — via native BACnet/IP and Modbus TCP, no middleware required.

Protocol compatibility matrix
All protocols supported natively on the MK-GW-1000 gateway. No additional licenses or middleware servers required.
| Protocol / Standard | Direction | Gateway support | Use case |
|---|---|---|---|
| BACnet/IP (ASHRAE 135) | BMS polling mesh data | Native — no license | BMS sensor integration, HVAC setpoints |
| Modbus TCP (IEC 61158) | SCADA polling mesh data | Native slave mode | Chiller/boiler/AHU control registers |
| MQTT (v3.1.1 / v5) | Bidirectional | Built-in broker + bridge | Custom IoT dashboards, cloud platforms |
| MQTT-SN | Mesh sensor → gateway | Built-in | Low-power Thread/Zigbee sensor data |
| CoAP (RFC 7252) | Mesh sensor → gateway | Built-in | Thread sensor telemetry (low overhead) |
| DALI-2 (IEC 62386) | Gateway → luminaires | Via MK-NODE-BT | Lighting zone control, dimming |
| KNX/IP | Gateway → BMS | KNXnet/IP tunneling | European BMS installations |
| REST API (JSON/HTTPS) | Bidirectional | MeshOS v2+ | CMMS integration, custom dashboards |
| 6LoWPAN / IPv6 | Thread mesh | Border Router on GW | IPv6-native device addressing |
| LoRaWAN (LoRa Alliance) | Bidirectional | Optional module | Outdoor sensors, parking, long-range |

BACnet/IP via Desigo CC BACnet driver. Tested with PXM50 building automation station. OPC UA bridge available for Desigo Insight integrations.
BACnet + Modbus TCP via standard Niagara drivers. Node-RED flows available for custom logic. Tested with JACE-8000 and WEBstation-AX.
BACnet/IP integration. MQTT bridge to EcoStruxure IT Expert via cloud connector. Tested with SmartX IP controllers.
Modbus TCP slave mode. MQTT bridge to ABB Ability platform. Contact for configuration guide.
REST API (JSON/HTTPS) for full programmatic access. MQTT broker bridge for any MQTT-compatible IoT platform. All integrations are customer-buildable.
REST API
Build your own integration
If your BMS isn't on the list above, the MeshOS REST API provides full access to node inventory, sensor readings, alert rules, and OTA management. OAuth 2.0 bearer token authentication.
Base URL: https://<gateway-ip>/api/v1/
Inventory, status, sensor reads
Firmware trigger, progress
Rules, history, webhooks
