Configuration
Connections
This connector uses HTTP connections and requires the input detailed below during element creation.
HTTP Connection - Primary
- IP address/host: The polling IP or URL of the destination.
- IP port: The IP port of the destination (default: 80).
- Device address: The bus address of the device. If the proxy server has to be bypassed, specify BypassProxy.
- Timeout of a single command: The default timeout time is 5000 ms, as there are API calls that usually take around 3-4 s to respond. If you notice timeout alarms or the element switching between primary and secondary connection, increase this timeout time.
HTTP Connection - Secondary
- IP address/host: The polling IP or URL of the destination.
- IP port: The IP port of the destination (default: 80).
- Device address: The bus address of the device. If the proxy server has to be bypassed, specify BypassProxy.
- Timeout of a single command: The default timeout time is 5000 ms, as there are API calls that usually take around 3-4 s to respond. If you notice timeout alarms or the element switching between primary and secondary connection, increase this timeout time.
Initialization
On the Login page, log in using the same credentials as for the web interface of the device.
Web Interface
The web interface is only accessible when the client machine has network access to the product.
Redundancy
The element is configured with a redundant connection. When the primary connection is no longer responding (i.e., a timeout occurs on this connection), DataMiner will automatically switch to the secondary connection (and vice versa).
How to use
This connector uses HTTP parameters to access and modify the device parameters.
The connector uses a UI structure similar to the web interface of the device. You can also control the parameters in a similar way.
To add new multiplexers, you will need to use the web interface of the device (available on a page of the element). These will then be accessible only through the web interface of the device.
The connector does not provide access to sensitive information such as the User, Storage, or Log pages of the web interface.
Poll Manager
With the poll manager, you can enable or disable polling commands, as well as change the polling interval (within certain limits). By default, all commands are enabled.
Below, you can find a list of existing commands and the information (tables and parameters) they poll.
