Configuration
Connections
HTTP Connection
This connector uses an HTTP connection and requires the following input during element creation:
HTTP CONNECTION:
- IP address/host: The polling IP or URL of the destination.
- IP port: The IP port of the destination (default: 443).
- Device address: The bus address of the device. If the proxy server has to be bypassed, specify BypassProxy.
Initialization
On the Communication Settings page, you will need to provide a username and a password to log in to the device.
Webhook Listener
This connector uses an HTTP listener and requires the following configuration within the element:
WEBHOOK LISTENER:
- Webhook IP: The IP used to listen to webhooks.
- Webhook port: The port used to listen to webhooks (default: 50000; needs to be opened in the firewall).
Web Interface
The web interface is only accessible when the client machine has network access to the product.
How to use
This connector uses REST API calls to communicate with the device.
It has two communication modes, GMCS and MCS.
In GMCS mode, you can configure up to 10 different domains with 3 tables each, one for CCU device information, one for CCU Assignment information, and one for RCP Assignment information. The domains can be enabled/disabled in the GMCS Communication Settings table on the Communication Settings page. This will also affect whether a domain is polled and displayed or not.
When in MCS mode, you will only have access to one domain with the same 3 tables.
For both modes, a matrix for CCU assignments and another for RCP assignments is available.
The webhook communication is responsible for receiving updates on connections made, so it is important to make sure that you provide valid webhook connection parameters. An incorrect configuration will lead to tables and matrices only being updated every 15 minutes. It is also important to ensure that the webhook port is opened in the firewall, as otherwise no webhook communication will be received.
