Appendix C.1. Exposing Driver Operating Statistics

In addition to the standard FieldServer operating statistics the driver exposes certain key stats in a Data Array if required. These stats can then be monitored by an upstream device.

Add the following to your configuration file to activate these stats

Expose Driver Operating Stats.

Data_Arrays

 

 

Data_Array_Name,

Data_Format,

Data_Array_Length

ATMI-TGM-stats,

UINT16,

1000

To calculate the actual offset multiply the port number by 100 and add the relative offset. Items marked * do not consider the port number in calculating the actual offset.

1

 

 

Increments each time client sends a poll.

 

2

 

 

Total of all the bytes sent to the TGM device

 

3

 

 

Increments each time the client receives a complete response

indicated by the prompt character

 

 

 

 

 

4

 

 

Increments each time the client receives a CR-lf pair in a response

 

5

 

 

Count of all the bytes received by the client in response to TGM polling

 

6

 

 

Count of all the messages that were sent to the parse function.

 

8

 

 

Count of all the message that were parsed successfully

 

9

 

 

Increments by 1 each time a poll times out

 

10

 

 

*When set to 1 the driver dumps the contents of its gas name lookup table

 

 

to the error log. Driver resets to zero after dump.

 

 

 

 

 

11

 

 

*When set to 1 the driver dumps the contents of its gas engineering units

 

 

lookup table to the error log. Driver resets to zero after dump.

 

 

 

 

 

12

 

 

*When set to 1 the driver dumps the contents of its CALR gas lookup

 

 

table to the error log. Driver resets to zero after dump.

 

 

 

 

 

13

 

 

*When set to 1 the driver dumps the contents of its Malfunction Lookup

 

 

table to the error log. Driver resets to zero after dump.

 

 

 

 

 

14

 

 

*When set to 1 the driver dumps the contents of its 'Return to Normal'

 

 

Lookup table to the error log. Driver resets to zero after dump.

 

 

 

 

 

15

 

 

When set to 1 the driver does not use the soundex function.

 

16

 

 

Increments by 1 each time a response line is too large to fit

the

 

 

connection in buffer

 

 

 

 

 

17

 

 

Increments by 1 each time a response is too large to fit the in the report

To execute a table dump do the following

Connect to the FieldServer using RUINET

Browse to the Array called “ATMI-TGM-stats”

• Modify the value found at offset by typing M x 1 <Enter> Where x = 10 or 11 or 12 or 13 or 14
