IDEC is brilliant at what it does. Useless at everything else your data + AI needs to touch.
Registers live in WindLDR, compact OEM lines report by hand, maintenance reacts after a stoppage, and AI models never see live Modbus data across the fleet.
The integration tool you've already tried probably can't fix it.
SaaS-to-SaaS. Useful, until it isn't.
Connectors for IDEC, Slack + a thousand other SaaS apps. Cheap + fast for the easy half of integration. Where they hit a wall:
- ERP that needs live machine output and run state per line from compact controllers
- Historian and data-warehouse targets that should hold every MicroSmart register at full rate
- CMMS that should open a work order when an IDEC fault or alarm register fires
- OEE and predictive-maintenance models needing live cycle counts, states and reject data
- On-controller data logs on FC6A that never reach the enterprise or AI
SCADA, historians, ERP, IoT + AI. One platform.
The integration platform built for what other tools can't (or won't) reach - plus an AI data fabric, MCP server + app builder layered on top.
- IDEC + every SCADA, historian and ERP system
- OPC-UA, EtherNet/IP, Modbus, PROFINET, S7 + custom-built connectors.
- Files, legacy SQL, FTP + custom-built connectors
- Real-time bidirectional sync, tier-aware + rate-limit-safe
- AI Data Fabric, MCP, automation + custom apps included
IDEC + Rayven: AI, automation + tools that reach every system you run.
5 examples of what Rayven customers run on IDEC + integrated systems. Built in weeks, not months.
MicroSmart registers stream to the fabric
Rayven reads FC6A and FC5A data registers and I/O over Modbus TCP, RTU and EtherNet/IP, then streams them into a real-time Industrial AI Data Fabric with historian and ERP context. No WindLDR export, no SCADA layer required.
Fault register raises the work order
An IDEC fault or alarm register opens a work order in CMMS automatically, carrying the machine, line and live state so the technician arrives knowing the fault, not just that the line stopped.
Line output posts to ERP
Counts, run state and reject totals read from MicroSmart registers post to ERP in real-time, so planning and finance track live output rather than an end-of-run tally.
On-controller data logs reach the enterprise
Data logged locally on FC6A controllers reads into the central fabric over Modbus or MQTT, so records that used to stay on an SD card finally join operations and predictive analytics.
Supervised setpoint writeback, safely scoped
Where explicitly scoped, Rayven writes a non-safety setpoint back to a MicroSmart register under supervision and full audit. It never reprograms the controller and never writes to safety logic; the control loop stays untouched.
Integration is the start with Rayven.
Here's what comes with it.
Rayven isn't just a IDEC connector. It's the operational software platform underneath - so once IDEC is connected, four more capabilities come online by default.
AI-ready data layer (AI Data Fabric)
IDEC data joined with ERP, IoT + legacy - contextualised, unified and structured so AI models, agents and tools can use it without ETL prep work.

Live AI access (Rayven MCP)
Claude, ChatGPT + Gemini get live, governed access to IDEC and every other connected system. Your AI stops guessing - cites real IDEC records + numbers.
Learn more →
Automation + AI agents
Workflows + AI agents act on IDEC data without human intervention - escalate at-risk accounts, trigger operational work, auto-update forecasts, draft customer comms.
Learn more →
Custom apps + portals
Unified customer portals, ops dashboards, mobile field apps, partner portals - built on top of integrated IDEC data. No separate BI tool, no separate dev stack.

All on top of your existing stack. No rip + replace. IDEC stays IDEC. Rayven works on what you've already built. Specifically tuned for MicroSmart data-register reads with FC6A on-controller logs surfaced.
Rayven is a five-layer platform ALL your integrations + much more
can run on.
Integration is one layer of Rayven. Data, execution, presentation + governance are the other four - all delivered as one platform on one commercial.
Pick the right tool for your stack.
IDEC integration looks different at every scale. Honest comparison of the four common paths - Rayven only wins on some of them.
The integration is the easy bit.
The platform + team behind it is the difference.
Platform + team. One commercial.
Not five vendors stitched together. Rayven is the platform AND the Australia-based expert team that scopes, builds + supports it. One commercial. No licence stacking, no finger-pointing.
Built for the MicroSmart register model.
Rayven reads IDEC FC6A and FC5A data registers and I/O over Modbus TCP, RTU and EtherNet/IP for real-time sync, with MQTT on FC6A Plus, resolving register addressing to engineering-unit tags and surfacing on-controller logs. Reads and contextualises only, never a write to safety logic.
We stay after go-live.
No handoff. No disappearing. Rayven is a long-term partner when your IDEC evolves, your stack changes, or you push further. 24/7 support. Same team, same platform, same commercial.
Hosted your way, where you need.
Deploy as cloud, private cloud + on-premise - in Australia, the US, the UK, or anywhere else your IDEC data needs to live. Your residency, your rules, your local compliance environment.
The questions IDEC admins, RevOps + IT ask first.

What is IDEC integration?
IDEC integration means reading data registers off MicroSmart FC6A and FC5A controllers and connecting them to ERP, CMMS and AI. Rayven delivers it as part of an Industrial AI Data Fabric, not a per-machine script.
Does Rayven reprogram or control our IDEC controllers?
No. Rayven reads MicroSmart registers over Modbus and EtherNet/IP and contextualises them. Supervised writeback is limited to explicitly-scoped non-safety setpoints and never touches safety logic or the control loop. See security, governance + hosting.
Can Rayven read IDEC data without SCADA?
Yes. Rayven reads FC6A and FC5A controllers directly over Modbus, EtherNet/IP or MQTT at the edge, so a compact line with no supervisory layer still reaches the enterprise. Where you run supervisory software, see SCADA integration. Read more in how Rayven works.
What systems can Rayven connect IDEC to?
Rayven connects IDEC to 1,228+ systems including ERP, historians, CMMS and sibling controllers like AutomationDirect and Fatek. Custom connectors are part of done-for-you delivery.
How long does IDEC integration take with Rayven?
Most IDEC integrations go live in 2-12 weeks. A single machine-to-historian or fault-to-work-order flow runs in 2-3 weeks; a fleet-wide fabric with OEE and predictive maintenance runs 6-12 weeks. Choose DIY, done-for-you or hybrid delivery.
FC6A has a built-in web server and MQTT. Why does Rayven add value on top?
The web server and MQTT expose registers; they do not join them across machines, hold history at rate or run AI - and FC5A has neither. Rayven reads over Modbus, EtherNet/IP and MQTT together, surfaces on-controller logs and adds the analytics and agent layers on top. Read more in how Rayven works.
What are the technical specifics of IDEC integration with Rayven?
Rayven reads IDEC MicroSmart FC6A and FC5A controllers and SmartAXIS PLCs over Modbus TCP and RTU and EtherNet/IP, with MQTT on FC6A Plus. Data registers, bit devices, I/O and machine-state values are read at the edge, with word and bit addressing resolved to named engineering-unit tags, then mapped field by field into an Industrial AI Data Fabric alongside historian, CMMS and ERP data. Data logged locally on FC6A controllers is surfaced to operations and predictive analytics rather than stranded on an SD card. Rayven reads and contextualises only; supervised writeback covers explicitly-scoped non-safety setpoints and never writes to safety logic. Authentication and access are governed at the connector with full audit, deployed at the edge, on-premises or with sovereign hosting. Validated against MicroSmart FC6A, FC5A and SmartAXIS controllers across compact OEM machine lines.
