ezeio2:userinterface:configuration:devices:driverlist:accumulator_diff

Description

This driver monitors an accumulating field value, for example an energy (kWh) or volume (L) register that continuously counts up. The driver captures the field value at a given interval (hourly, daily etc..) and computes the difference between the start and end of the interval. Current value and the four previous are provided.


Name - The name is up to the user. Our suggestion is to choose a naming convention that makes the viewing the device list intuitive. Such as referring to the sensor and/or application. Keep the name short as it will be combined with the register name to create the default “Field” name (if added to “Fields”)

Active Check box - Check this box and “Save changes” to run the driver. The driver program can be suspended by unchecking the box and clicking on “Save changes”.

User Notes - This space can be used to store information specific to the device and your application, such as: the asset being monitored, the purpose of monitoring, etc.

eze System Notes - In this space we provide a description of the driver's function.


Accumulator Field - Use the drop-down menu to select the Field to be monitored.

Interval - Use the drop-down menu to select the differential's interval. Options are; Hourly, Daily, Weekly, Monthly or Yearly.


Device Status

Driver info - Typically this is the name from the program file

Driver updated/version - Date loaded or updated and the version of the driver

Battery & Signal - Signal indicates the progress through the script. If driver fails to operate, signal number indicates progress

Driver status - Color and text of status bubbles give a quick visual reference of Communication, Operation, and Application

Communication - Com count indicates number of successful and unsuccessful data packets received


Available registers

Reg # Reg Name Description
1 Accumulator value Current value in selected Field
2 Current interval partial diff Differential between value at beginning of interval and current value
3 Previous interval diff Most recent interval differential captured. Daily example: Yesterday's differential
4 2nd interval diff Second most recent interval differential captured
5 3rd interval diff Third most recent interval differential captured
6 4th interval diff Fourth most recent interval differential captured
7 Value at start of current interval Speed of travel is given as meters per second
8 Interval identifier Current interval step, out of a complete cycle (expressed as a number). See table below

Interval option Description Cycle Example of number reference
Hourly Begins at top of hour 0 to 23 0 = Midnight to 1 am
Daily Begins at Midnight 1 to 31 1 = 1st day of Month
Weekly (Mon-Sun) Begins Monday 1 to 52 1 = Monday
Weekly (Sun-Sat) Begins Sunday 1 to 52 1 = Sunday
Monthly Begins first of the Month 1 to 12 1 = January
Yearly Begins January 1st N/A
