==Summary==
This article contains instructions on how to send M-Bus data to the server using various protocols.


==Introduction==
==Configuration overview & prerequisites==
Before we begin, let's take a look at the configuration that we are attempting to achieve and the prerequisites that make it possible.


'''''gsmctl''''' is an SSH command used to communicate with a {{{name}}} router's modem. In other words, ''gsmctl'' relays '''AT''' commands (a set of instructions used to control a modem) to the router's modem; thus, providing the user with a way to control and obtain information from the modem via SSH. This can be used to either obtain certain modem related variables (signal strength, operator, connection state, etc.) or to execute certain actions (sending SMS messages, changing the frequency band, etc.).
'''Prerequisites''':
* TRB143;
* M-Bus device;
* Server;
* An end device (PC, Laptop, Tablet, Smartphone) for configuration;


This article provides a complete overview on ''gsmctl'' commands available in {{{name}}} routers.
{{Template:Networking_rutos_manual_basic_advanced_webui_disclaimer
| series = RUTX
}}


==Prerequisites==
==Adding M-Bus devices==
The '''[[TRB143_M-Bus|M-Bus Settings]]''' section is used to configure the general service functionality. To set up a new M-Bus instance, go to '''Services → M-Bus → Client'''. Add a new device to the configuration press [[File:Add Button.png|60x90px]] button which is shown below.


''gsmctl'' commands can be used on all {{{name}}} routers via any type of command line interface (CLI) supported by the router. So all you need is:
[[File:Mbus adding new device.png||border|class=tlt-border]]


*a {{{name}}} router
===Device configuration===
*knowledge on how to login via a '''[[Command line interfaces|command line interface]]'''
 
==gsmctl options==
 
''gsmctl'' commands are used in tandem with various options that specify what type of action should be executed.
----
'''Example structure'''
 
Individual options are described in separate subsections of this article. To find the information you are looking for faster, refer to the table of contents at the top of the page or use your browser's "Find in page" feature ('''Control + F''').
 
Each option is presented with its usage syntax and an example command. For easier differentiation of the different elements that make up the examples, different colors are used:
 
*<span style="color:blue;">options</span> are highlighted in blue
*<span style="color:red;">responses</span> are highlighted in red
*<span style="color:purple;">additional parameters</span> are highlighted in purple
 
----
'''Two execution methods'''
 
Each option can be executed in two distinct ways. One is shorter, the other is longer and more descriptive. For example, to obtain the modem's IMEI you can either use:
 
*short version: '''''gsmctl -i'''''
*long version: '''''gsmctl --imei'''''
 
In both cases, you just type the desired command and press the "Enter" key on your keyboard to execute that command. The response will be printed out as a '''standard output''' ('''stdout''') string in your terminal window.
----
'''Combined options'''
 
Multiple options can be combined together to obtain more than one parameter at a time. For example, to obtain the name of the operator used, signal strength and connection type with one command you can use one of the following:
 
*short version: '''''gsmctl -oqt'''''
*long version: '''''gsmctl --operator --signal --conntype'''''
 
Note that in the shorter version multiple options can be used together with one hyphen (-) symbol with no spacing, while in the longer version different options must be separated by spaces and before each option a double hyphen (--) is required.
 
==Basic options==
 
This section overviews basic ''gsmctl'' options, usually related to obtaining certain modem related information.

The information on this page is updated in accordance with the 00.07.08 firmware version .

Summary

This article contains instructions on how to send M-Bus data to the server using various protocols.

Configuration overview & prerequisites

Before we begin, let's take a look at the configuration that we are attempting to achieve and the prerequisites that make it possible.

Prerequisites:

  • TRB143;
  • M-Bus device;
  • Server;
  • An end device (PC, Laptop, Tablet, Smartphone) for configuration;

If you're having trouble finding this page or some of the parameters described here on your device's WebUI, you should turn on "Advanced WebUI" mode. You can do that by clicking the "Advanced" button, located at the top of the WebUI.

Adding M-Bus devices

The M-Bus Settings section is used to configure the general service functionality. To set up a new M-Bus instance, go to Services → M-Bus → Client. Add a new device to the configuration press button which is shown below.

Device configuration


You will be granted to a new window. Configure your M-Bus device accordingly:

  1. Name: Enter the desired name of the M-Bus device
  2. Address type: select which M-Bus address will be used
  3. Primary/Secondary address: specify M-Bus address

Test if the M-Bus device is reachable by a specified primary/secondary address. To do so click on . You might get on of two outputs:

  • If you have specified correct primary/secondary address, you will receive:

  • If you have specified incorrect primary/secondary address, you will receive (if you do not know what address should be used, refer to the Scanning for available M-Bus devices (PRIDET URL) secion:

Once finished, save the configuration by clicking Savenapply button.png.

Scanning for available M-Bus devices


If you are not sure what address your M-Bus devices have, you can try scanning for the available M-Bus devices. To do so click on button.

Scan settings


You will be granted to a new window. Configure scan settings accordingly:

  1. Scan type: select which M-Bus address will be scanned
  2. Scan range: From what M-Bus address scanning will start and M-Bus address until scanning will be performed.

To start the scan click on button.

Found devices


Once the scan is finished you should see the list of M-Bus devices that TRB143 were able to find:

You can either (1) M-Bus devices primary address or (2) to the M-Bus devices list.

Gathering M-Bus data

If the device successfully added to the list, under the General settings you should see that the Status changes to Active.

Data collecting groups


To reach data collecting groups configuration press button. button lets you to create a new instance.

Data collecting group instance


Each data collection group contains the following information. Configure device accordingly:

  1. Enabled: on
  2. Name: desired name of the instance
  3. Period: desired time duration between data retrievals
  4. Data type: desired data type to process the received data. Depending on your needs you can select between 5 different data types: JSON, XML, ASCII, Hexadecimal and Binary.

You can check if your configuration works accordingly by pressing the button. You should see the data in a pop-up field:

Group values


To reach group values configuration press button:

There you can adjust additional settings:

  1. Enable: Enable/disable data group value.
  2. FCB toggle: FCB (Frame Count-Bit), one-bit counter for reliable server-client communication.
  3. Manufacturer information: Select to include manufacturer information in the payload.
  4. Selected parameters: Select to include the all parameters saved from device, or a custom subset of them. If the custom is selected you can specify frame, record numbers and also a paramater


Sending data to the server

The Data to Server feature provides you with the possibility to set up data senders that collect data from various sources and periodically send it to remote servers. This section will walk you through configuring the Data to Server to send M-Bus data to the desired HTTP or MQTT server.

Data to Server configuration


To set up Data to Server, navigate to Services → Data to Server. Enter desired name of the instnace and hit button which is shown below.

Data configuration


Each data collection group contains the following information. Configure device accordingly:

  1. Name: desired name of the instance
  2. Type: M-Bus data
  3. Format: custom or JSON depending on a need.


Once finished configuring Data configuration tab click on button.

Collection configuration


Once finished configuring Collection configuration tab click on button.
