CHAPTER 10: COMBINING ALERTWERKS WIRED AND
ALERTWERKS AW3000
10.1 CHOOSING IMAGES FOR DASHBOARDS AND DASHBOXES
In many projects both platforms will be combined, since a wired IoT System delivers continuous sensor data, especially
when using with legacy protocols, such as ModBus or dry contacts, AlertWerks™ wired has some advantages over a
wireless system.
Both platforms can communicate with each other using the SNMP protocol and other means. To prevent two systems
in parallel from needing administration, AlertWerks Integration is possible.
10.1.1 ALIGNING WIRED AND WIRELESS ALERTWERKS SYSTEMS
To align the systems:
Set up AW3000 according to Chaper 2 of this manual.
1.
Set up AlertWerks Wired according to the manual.
2.
Connect your physical wired sensor to any port of AlertWerks wired and remember the number.
3.
Configure thresholds and the name of that new wired sensor on Web I/F of AlertWerks Wired.
4.
Create a virtual sensor in AW3000 using AlertWerks Wired integration.
5.
Configure just the IP adress of AlertWerks Wired and the port number of the sensor.
6.
Values, Thresholds, and Names are now retrieved and steadily aligned.
If you want to integrate AW3000 into AlertWerks wired, you also need to use virtual sensors.
Use the OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.6878.x.y1.y2.3 with multiplier 0.001. While x, y1 and y2 are:
X
1=Physical Sensor, 2=Virtual Sensor
Y1
MSB of Index Number
Y2
LSB of Index Number
EXAMPLE 1:
For Physical Sensor 33 use: 1.3.6.1.4.1.6878.1.0.33.3
EXAMPLE 2:
For Virtual Sensor 256 use: 1.3.6.1.4.1.6878.2.1.0.3
Using the second method, values are only imported to AlertWerks Wired.
