How to use Reporting Agent


The Reporting Agent interface allows us to have a report of the most important data our device can provide. This is a guide of how to use and configure it correctly.

Configuration

To start you need to enter the IP of your device and enter in Services>Reporting Agent. Once there, firstly you have to choose which communication channel are you going to use. You can use more than one.
Secondly, you have to enable the data you want to recieve on your report. alt text
Then, you have to configure the settings:
  • Check Device Info and Enable Data Send
  • Choose the most suitable protocol for your application.
  • Starting string: $
  • Ending string: #
  • IP1/URL1: Use the IPv4 your PC is providing you (Network & Internet settings on Windows)
  • Port1: 5555 (Default)
  • Send Interval: 30 (Default)

To do it by UDP you have to put your device IP and the Port you are using and click on Listen
