The Challenge
When the COVID-19 pandemic hit, CM Group’s entire company shifted to working remotely. This meant they were faced with a challenge they hadn’t experienced before: finding ways to onboard new hires virtually. On top of this, CM Group still had to train and motivate their existing employee base remotely. They had access to multiple enablement platforms but were struggling to streamline them into one consistent process. CM Group’s global enablement team needed to bring all of their brands into one unified readiness platform that all of their employees could use. Two of their brands were already using Lessonly, while another used Mindtickle. When the COVID-19 pandemic began, the quarantine accelerated CM Group’s need to implement Mindtickle for its entire workforce across the globe.
About The Customer
CM Group is a company based in Nashville, Tennessee. Founded in 2017, the company operates in the Information Technology and Services industry. The company has over 700 employees globally. CM Group’s global enablement team needed to bring all of their brands into one unified readiness platform that all of their employees could use. Two of their brands were already using Lessonly, while another used Mindtickle. When the COVID-19 pandemic began, the quarantine accelerated CM Group’s need to implement Mindtickle for its entire workforce across the globe.
The Solution
With a pressing need to roll out onboarding and training programs remotely throughout the pandemic, CM Group’s enablement team opted to consolidate their enablement platforms to create the CM Group Knowledge Hub. The Knowledge Hub acts as a collaborative onboarding experience for new hires, while also serving as a source for regular updates for seasoned team members. By implementing new strategies like Missions using Mindtickle, CM Group is able to ensure their entire customer-facing team is trained on consistent messaging and processes. Transitioning to Mindtickle, they created one learning site called the CM Group Knowledge Hub and quickly moved their existing enablement content over to their new readiness platform. Mindtickle’s single sign-on capability made it as simple as clicking a button for employees to get started.

Remote Monitoring and Control for a Windmill Generator
As concerns over global warming continue to grow, green technologies are becoming increasingly popular. Wind turbine companies provide an excellent alternative to burning fossil fuels by harnessing kinetic energy from the wind and converting it into electricity. A typical wind farm may include over 80 wind turbines so efficient and reliable networks to manage and control these installations are imperative. Each wind turbine includes a generator and a variety of serial components such as a water cooler, high voltage transformer, ultrasonic wind sensors, yaw gear, blade bearing, pitch cylinder, and hub controller. All of these components are controlled by a PLC and communicate with the ground host. Due to the total integration of these devices into an Ethernet network, one of our customers in the wind turbine industry needed a serial-to-Ethernet solution that can operate reliably for years without interruption.

Using SNMP for a Ethernet-Based Home Automation System
A startup company was developing a product which provides service partners with an integrated e-services platform that allows customers to remotely monitor and control devices in their home or business. In order to complete their project, the startup needed a control system that could monitor and control the many different devices used by their potential customers, preferably with an open protocol for greater flexibility. SNMP was their first choice, as it is commonly used and well understood in the IT field. The next step was to choose an I/O server to connect to the sensors in a home automation system. System Requirements - Open Ethernet-based procotol - SNMP protocol for I/O control - Compact size to save space - Long-term support and services

Boiler Control System for Plastic Manufacturing Applications
Factory automation applications must be equipped to handle and monitor the myriads of information from attached devices. For plastic manufacturing applications, the boiler control system plays a critical role by gathering and regulating information to ensure production is accurate and smooth. In this particular case, the customer combines eight subsystems that include power meters, water meters, alarm output, displays, and I/O status to be controlled by several intelligent controllers with Modbus RTU interface. The Modbus TCP protocol is used for this application due to the distance. System Requirements: • Modbus serial to Modbus TCP translation • Multiple slaves/masters support • Automatic Modbus TCP response time detection
