Template:FTX8XX/9XX Input/output (I/O): Difference between revisions

Revision as of 17:41, 22 May 2024

When no I/O element is enabled, AVL packet comes with GNSS information only. After enabling I/O element(s) AVL packet contains current value(s) of enabled I/O element(s) along with GNSS information.

Permanent I/O

I/O element name.

Current Value

If the device is connected to the Configurator, then all the current I/O values can be seen here.

Units

Units of measurement.

Priority

This field allows the enabling of the I/O elements and sets them a priority so they are added to the data packet, which are sent to the server. By default 8 I/O elements with Low priority are enabled: Ignition, Movement, GSM Signal, External Voltage, Battery Voltage, Battery Current, Total Odometer, Digital Output 1 Overcurrent. All records made by FTX9XX are regular, and regular packets are sent as low priority records.

Priority level (AVL packet priority) can be:

None Priority

Module doesn't make additional record.

Low Priority

Module makes an additional record with an indication that the event was caused by an I/O element change (depending on Operands configuration).

High Priority

Module makes an additional record with High priority flag and sends event packet immediately to the server using GPRS.

High and Low Level

These levels define I/O value range. If I/O value enters or exits this range, FTX9YX generates an event.

Event Only

When this is selected, I/O element status value will be appended only to eventual records, otherwise I/O element status value will appear in each AVL record.

Operands

Defines when to generate event: On Exit, On Entrance, On Both, Monitoring, On Hysteresis, On Change or On Delta Change.

Operand On Exit

Record is generated when input value leaves a range between low and high level limits.

Operand On Entrance

Record is generated when input value enters a range between low and high level limits.

Operand On Both

Record is generated by both On Exit and On Entrance operands' logic at same time.

Operand Monitoring

No event at all. Values are recorded only when other triggers worked.

Operand On Hysteresis

Record is generated when input value crosses the high limit value from below the low limit value or vice versa.

Operand On Change

Record is generated when input value changes.

Operand On Delta Change

Record is generated when input value changes and the absolute change becomes equal to or higher than the limit value.

-==Avg Const==
-If ''Avg Const'' value is 10, new value must be present for 1 second to register the change to a new value. Internal sampling is done every 40 ms, so 25 samples are taken per second. To configure 5 seconds of averaging multiply 10 by 5 yielding 50 as ''Avg Const'' value. The same logic works if the device is in [[{{{model|FMB1YX}}}_Sleep_modes#Deep_Sleep_mode|Deep Sleep mode]].<br />Averaging follows RC exponential curve, see image below:
-[[Image:Fmb120_avg_const.png|300px|none]]
-For Boolean values of 5τ, values is used, that means value change is taken when new values is averaged to more than 99.3%.
-[[File:Alert.png|x30px|]]'''''NOTE: Average Constant is not used as an activation timer or delay timer. But it is used as a filter.'''
-''
-Event is generated at different times due to variations in voltage. Average constant is designed to filter jumps instead of event generation time.
-For example: generation is set to happen at  14500mV, and actual voltage is set to 15000mV, that record will be generated earlier than 10s with avg const set to 100. This is because avg const is calculating time it takes for device to get to actual voltage (in this case 15000 mV), while device will be generating records when it hits 14500mV.
