Generating reading tables and node tables
-
To see the data in a more structured format use “Table View”
-
To get data in a more structured format select the “readingsTable” or “nodesTable” under the EG4 directory [private>packetPower]
-
Right click and select “Table View”
-
The table will appear in the right window
Node Tables / Node Map
-
After performing a “TableView” on “Nodes Table” by selecting the “nodesTable” file, right click and select table view, it will reveal a listing of all nodes associated with the Gateway
-
Node “GUIDs” will be displayed in the table
-
These node IDs will correspond to the Node IDs on the Gateway Console accessed by selecting Data Destinations > SNMP > Nodes
Readings Table / Readings for all Nodes
-
Performing a “TableView” on “Readings Table” by selecting the “readingsTable” file, right click and select [Table View] from the pop up menu, it will reveal a listing of all readings for all nodes associated with the Gateway
-
Node IDs will correspond to the node readings on the Gateway Console accessed by selecting the Monitoring Data menu and highlighting the corresponding node
-
Values from the Gateway Console will match those on the Readings Table
All readings share a common table until a virtual IP address can be defined per node allowing nodes to be segregated by IP address
Interpreting Readings Data from Table View
-
The 16 digit node ID (GUID) that identifies each Packet Power device (node) is encoded within the OID
Clicking on a reading will allow you to associate it with a specific node ID via the OID
Any reading OID will always correspond to a specific channel for specific node (ie. energy on phase A for a particular node)
Readings Definitions
mnChannel ID: Identical for all like monitoring devices
mnChannel Name: Describes the function of the channel, i.e., Energy for phase A
mnValue: Measurement value for the channel
mnUnits: Units of measurement, i.e., Watt hours
mnTime Stamp: Time when the value was received
mnTime Stamp: Time when the value was received in hex
mnIndex Value:
