This preconfiguration can be used with the objects: PmFolder or PmRoot.
View - PmFolder
The "PanelTest" test panel is used for displaying received data. Here it is possible to use the configurators in order to put together requested method and command parameter. The "PanelTrend" panel allows rendering graphic chart of data in defined time range.The PmFolder object has methods RequestEwons, RequestEwon, RequestData and RequestSyncdata that are used to initiate the communication. Each of these methods call the Add method of the PmSequencer object together with corresponding parameters. It triggers the onStep event of the PmSequencer object where the HttpRequest object executes the communication with the service. The received data is then processed by methods ReplyEwons, ReplyEwon, ReplyData and ReplySyncdata that must be modified accordingly.
Cfg - PmFolder
Subobjects in this folder can be used to select values that will be read and saved locally into a trend database table. The CfgTrend panel is used for data selection and configuration. Once the configuration is saved, new file named EwonCfgTrend.txt is created in the Cfg folder of the application. The content of such file is necessary for correct functionality of subobjects located in the Trend folder. These subobjects are responsible for saving selected values into trends.Trend - PmFolder
Subobjects in this folder are responsible for communication and saving selected values into trends. The configuration file EwonCfgTrend.txt is necessary for their correct functionality. The file contains JSon data created by the CfgTrend panel. If increasing the number of trended values is needed, it can be done by opening the application in the development environment and copying the TrendVar1 object in the Trend folder.Once the communication is launched for the first time the application starts reading all historical data (stored in the cloud) of variables defined in the configuration file. The order of variables is respected. The data is read and stored continuously from the oldes to the newest. The application reads batches of 200 records every 0.5 seconds (after the previous batch is processed). Once one variable is fully read then another follows. This process may take significant ammount of time based on the total ammount of data to be read. Once all the data is read and saved locally following communication is planned for the time defined in the DataCfg object in the Period variable. This value defines for how many seconds the system waits (after the previous communication ends) before the next reading of data from the cloud is initiated.
