Presenting

 

STEP 1 - STRATEGY

 

Here you consider your options for sharing the data

you have mined. For human users, a Web page

 

presentation is simplest. For machine-to-machine

 

communication, XML might be best. Command Line

 

could be used for either.

 

STEP 2 - SETUP

 

Automatically your data is available under status on the Web Manager, XML, and CLI.

Advanced Web customization can be done with HTML and JavaScript files dropped into the xPico Wi-Fi unit.

STEP 3 - TEST

With the Web Manager, view all of your data under Monitor Status.

In the Command Line Interface (CLI), first type "status" to enter the status menu level, then type "monitor" for the Monitor menu level. From there, type "show" for the data.

In the XML status dump, find statusgroup name = "Monitor", then statusitem name = "data" instance = "<the name you gave your data>", and value contains the data received.

Sample Configuration

We visit our device Web Manager, select the "Monitor" tab at the left of the display, the select "Status" at the top of the display. Our "Up time" and the present value appear there.
