MQTT API integration diagram for Lumiring access control controllers — customer-configured via documented APIs

Lumiring sets new standards in physical security through advanced IoT, automation, and IT protocols. At the core is our support for MQTT—a highly efficient, lightweight protocol perfect for access control systems. Integration with the customer’s own systems, including Node-RED, Home Assistant and other MQTT-compatible platforms, is done over MQTT by the customer.

Lumiring devices are professional-grade systems designed for system integrators and technically proficient users.

API

Lumiring controllers provide open integration capabilities through the MQTT API. MQTT command reference is provided on request.

For developers and system integrators to implement, our MQTT protocol offers advanced capabilities far beyond traditional APIs…

Lumiring MQTT connects with popular platforms such as Node-RED, openHAB, and other IoT ecosystems, enabling automation, real-time alerts, and control logic configured and built by the integrator.

Lumiring offers two integration options, engineered to match various levels of system complexity and deployment scale:

🔹 MQTT Integration – Our most advanced and scalable option. Ideal for IoT-heavy, real-time environments, MQTT allows bi-directional messaging with low latency and minimal bandwidth. As an MQTT-native device, it works with standard MQTT brokers and clients such as Node-RED, SCADA and openHAB. Customer-side configuration is required. LumiRing does not test, warrant or support compatibility with third-party platforms.

🔹 Cloud API Integration – Designed for enterprise-grade infrastructures with multiple subsystems. This option integrates Lumiring devices into AllDoors for centralized configuration and monitoring.

Integrate Without Disrupting Legacy Systems

Lumiring controllers are engineered for modular deployment into existing access control environments. There’s no need for system-wide replacement or architectural overhauls.

Each controller features wired I/O interfaces for third-party equipment, supporting integration with legacy readers, relays, sensors, or panels.

Configuration is performed via the embedded web interface or MQTT, allowing remote setup, real-time data exchange, and flexible integration logic—across Ethernet or Wi-Fi networks.

Ideal for expanding system functionality while preserving your current investment in infrastructure.
