AcuLink 810 Gateway JSON

Type: PUSH

Description:
Receives JSON packets from the Accuenergy AcuLink 810 gateway, transforms them into EnergyCAP CSV files imports them into your database. This method lets you import new data up to every five minutes.

Key benefit:
Connect your existing Modbus TCP/IP (max 100), Modbus RTU (max of 32) and BACnet MS/TP, BACnet IP and M-Bus meters and devices to EnergyCAP. The gateway's 8 digital inputs can be used to acquire the meters with digital outputs.

Important note:
When you connect your meters to the gateway this may require you to implement one or more drivers for your meters.

Work involved for you to implement this gateway:
Implementing drivers involves configuring Modbus communication definitions that allows the gateway to correctly read data from your devices. This includes defining device metadata, creating Modbus register blocks, mapping parameters to specific register addresses, applying data formats, scaling factors, and byte order, and validating the template through testing and deployment. Drivers may be created manually through the web interface or generated from CSV files based on device register documentation.

Skills required by your staff to implement this gateway:
This work requires a solid understanding of Modbus protocols (function codes, registers, addressing, and data types), the ability to interpret device register maps and technical documentation, and attention to detail when configuring parameters such as scaling, units, and byte order. Familiarity with industrial metering devices, basic networking concepts, and troubleshooting data validation issues is also important, along with comfort using web based configuration tools and CSV-based workflows.
