The digital twin feature is available on the platform to help you visually build data models.
Uploading Digital Twin Models
- Log in to Tier0, select Anchor > Model Library.
- Click
, select a .glb model, and upload it to the platform.
Mapping UNS Data to Digital Twin Models
info
There are 2 types of data mapping with 3D models.
- Static Mapping: Displays UNS data as a static tag on the scene. Often used in Gaussian Models (no movable parts but in need of data display) or static attributes of structured models (e.g., temperature of AC).
- Motion Mapping: Data mapped with the movable parts of the model, and the parts move according to the data change.
- After uploading the model, click the model to start mapping it with UNS data.
- Select model nodes to be mapped, and click Confirm.
- Click Create Instance, select the UNS data model that controls the model animation.
- Enter the Instance Name, set the Real-world Height of the model, and click Create.
Motion Mapping
Bind the UNS data to movable parts of the model.
-
On the Model Mapping tab, click
, and select the position axis of the model to be controlled.
-
Map the data field with the selected axis.
Static Mapping
Bind the UNS data with the model as a tag.
info
Guassian models are only avalable for static mapping, as they have no movable parts.

-
Click Data Tagging, and click Add Tag.
-
Click on the model to select the position of the tag, and configure the tag attributes.
-
Set the motion tags visibility mode, and click Preview.
Viewing Digital Twin Models
- After mapping UNS data to the model, click Generate QR Code at the upper-right corner.
- Select Share Model, and click Generate.
- Scan the QR code to view the digital twin model on your mobile device.
info
- When the model is added to a scene, share the scene to view the model with position, lighting and other settings.
- You can also download the code, or copy the code link for later use.
Quick Operations during Mapping
info
Node mappings are saved automatically.
On the Model Window
- Drag the slider of Explosion at the bottom of the model window to view the model parts.
- Click
to display the model with live mapped UNS data. - Click
to display the model in its original state. - Click
to view the model in full screen.
On the Mapping Tab
- Click Edit Selection at the upper-right corner to modify selected topics.
- Click
to disconnect a model node from the data. - Click
to add payload to UNS topics for quick mapping with new data.
