Hi Chris,
For gathering Amps data from a DCE device, DCO is queering the DCE for all sensors, with a specific type, for the given devices. It will then gather readings for each of the matching sensors. There are 4 different sensor types, that DCO matches on for Amps on DCE. They are the following:
Amp Sensors:
MODULE_BREAKER_CURRENT
OUTPUT_CURRENT
OUTPUT_CURRENT_TOTAL
INPUT_CURRENT
For power, the following sensor types are matched:
Power Sensors:
OUTPUT_POWER_WATTS
OUTPUT_POWER_TOTAL_WATTS
MODULE_OUTPUT_POWER or MODULE_BREAKER_POWER
For more details please see the following page: DCE Sensor Mapping to DCO
If your device doesn't hold any sensor, of one of the above sensor types, DCO will not be able to retrieve the data. You can test it for your self, using the SOAP services on the DCE, with the following SOAP request:
<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv=“http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/” xmlns:isx=“http://www.apc.com/stdws/xsd/ISXCentralSensors-v2">
<soapenv:Header/>
<soapenv:Body>
<isx:getSensorsByTypeRequest>
<isx:ISXCSensorType>?</isx:ISXCSensorType>
</isx:getSensorsByTypeRequest>
</soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>
Replace the “?” with one of the four above mentioned types.
Kind regards
