Oh, sorry about this post, I was so stuck on changing the html change that I completely forgot that the function is right there in front of me. Case closed.

Also, looking at your data, you may have a terminator in your messages, \n, which you could use on the data source to separate the messages to match on.

Hi Mebius,

I've given some information on the message formatting in this thread: http://infiniteautomation.com/forum/topic/2187/how-to-use-publishers-http-sender/3

This is what is sent from the publisher which complements the receiver.

Hi mebius,

The trick is to capture an empty group, refer to that group as the point identifier index, then have a point with an empty point identifier.

I gave an example configuration for this purpose in the first half of my first response in this thread: http://infiniteautomation.com/forum/topic/2274/serial-data-source-trouble-to-show-value-from-com-port/2

Yes we have done this by pulling in all the data from the Metasys system using BACnet. It might depend on the configuration of Metasys though but it should work.

Hi Mebius,

I do not believe so. I believe only the GET type is sent during polling

If you click the Help icon for either the Meta Data Point or the Scripting Data Source there is a link in the bottom section of the help to 'Mango Java Script' which contains lots of good information, including documentation of the RuntimeManager's functions. The same information can be found here:

Hi Pradeep,

it is probably possible to exchange data with a Sqlite database using the SQL datasource. Google suggested to me the driver: org.sqlite.JDBC and a connection string: jdbc:sqlite:/path/to/database ... We did not include the jar for Sqlite on the classpath. You will want to add that jar to Mango/overrides/lib/ so that the driver is available. If you are using a Linux system, I would suspect so, as it will still have an addressable file location for the connection string.

Hi Khairul,

Some of your modules are not the right versions for your core. Once you get it to start, you can update your modules and/or Mango from the modules page. You have what appears to be a permissions problem creating a databases directory. Perhaps you can manually create the directory so Mango only has to try and create the H2 database? Or you could run it in C:\Users[MyUser]\ I don't really enjoy reading stack traces without having at least a little thinking done on your part as to what you want me to be looking for. You are most welcome here, but i'm more likely to read something if a human took the time to say it AND provided me the machine's opinion on the subject too.

Hi Alex,

The intention is to move toward those two possibilities being a complete wash, so that it can be about segmenting it for management purposes.

Currently, though, I have observed issues when your number of BACnet sources gets considerably higher. In one such instance, the user had 100 individual BACnet devices and their thread consumption was enough Mango had trouble booting. After moving all the data points onto a single data source, this issue was resolved and Mango started quite quickly. Using one data source is considered the more computationally efficient route right now.

I also think that you just need to edit your point template and set Logging to "when point value changes". I don't think there's anything else you would need to do.

Hi All,

Thanks for the reply. I'm a new user so here i shared a link below. Please check and downloaded Jalasoft SNMP Device Simulator.

Hay
that's awesome. do you also know any other way to push data from mango to excel?

Thank you
PD

Generally true Hussam, but not always.

If a datasource fails polling some points but not others, it will only update the times of those it successfully polled. Or, if the entire poll fails, no timestamps will be updated. The timestamp displayed for a point on the data point details page does reflect the cache's perspective, meaning what the value of a point is and when that value was reported last. Other ways of accessing data can get you timestamps that reflect those which will ultimately be logged in the database.

For example, compare two meta scripts being run on a point receiving 1 second updates, but not always changing (I used a virtual binary point on random): It is set to log on change.

return new Date(p1.time); //returns the date of the last update

return new Date(p1.lastValue(0).time); //returns the date of the last logging

The REST api has a feature that allows bulk updating of data points via a PUT of a JSON array, but this has not been rigorously tested and is still in Beta. Use at your own risk since not every type of data point has been verified to work. I would suggest making a backup of your database prior to testing your specific updates.

Here is the basic idea:

Make a GET request to {YourMangoHost}/rest/v1/data-points to get all your data points as an Array in JSON format Edit your JSON Do a PUT request with the edited array of data points as the payload to {YourMangoHost}/rest/v1/data-points

Note that since the JSON structure for a Data Point in the REST API is different than the Mango JSON Export you cannot use one with the other.

I also need basic authentication, has something been implemented? I tried using http://username:password@someserver.com but this returns an error.

Hi Ralf,

That's an easy fix - you just have to create a navigation file. You might want to show different menus to different users and nav files are how you do that.

To make one, just click the 'person' icon in the top right of DGLux then click the 'Edit Navigation' link.

In the centre pane, navigate to the .dgml dashboard file you made (you might need to look under the 'files' tab) and then drag it to the left-most pane to add it to your menu.

You can now edit the properties of your menu object including name, icon, and whether to have it load automatically.

Then, hit the save and save your navfile as 'default.nav'. When prompted, associate it to the current user and now this is the menu that shows up when you log back in.

Hope this helps!
