SE SmartConnector Devices and Points

Schneider Electric SmartConnector Device Configuration Parameters:

Device Name Enter a descriptive name that eDrive will use to reference this device.  Spaces and punctuation characters are allowed.

Device Type From the drop down list, select the option: EcoStruxure SmartConnector.

Polling Timeout From the drop down list, select the value (in seconds) that will determine how long eDrive will wait for responses from this device before declaring a timeout event and moving on to its next task.

The intent of the timeout period is to allow enough time for the device to fully respond to requests from eDrive, but also allow eDrive to move on to other tasks if the device is offline and not able to respond.

URL Enter the URL for the SmartConnector EndPoint that is pointed to your EcoStruxure Device.

Username Enter a valid username for your EcoStruxure device.

Password Enter a valid password for your EcoStruxure device.

Domain Enter a valid domain for your EcoStruxure device. Leave blank if you are using the default domain.

Verify SSL Disabling this option suppresses the SSL error messages for self signed certificates. The default option for this property is false

Target Interval Enter the value (in seconds) that represents how often this device needs to poll all of its Point Objects.  eDrive will distribute its polling activities over the Target Interval and attempt to complete the polling for all of its Point Objects within the Target Interval if possible.

Example:  All selected points for this device only need to be updated once every 10 minutes.  Set the Target Interval to 600 seconds.

When practical, use a longer value of Target Interval to spread out the polling activities and minimize impact on network bandwidth, especially if the source points are located in Infinet controllers. 


Schneider Electric Continuum Point Object Configuration Parameters:

Name Enter a descriptive name that eDrive will use to reference this Point Object.  Spaces and punctuation characters are allowed.

If '/' (forward slash) characters are included in the name, eDrive will create the Point Object in a hierarchical, tree structure with the '/' characters as delimiters.  The tree structure will appear in the list of eDrive objects along the right hand side of the page.

Address Enter a text string that is a path/id to the point in EcoStruxure. Please only get these paths/ids using the tree in eDrive

Note!  You can assign Additional Properties to any Point Object such as Offset, scaling MultiplierHistory, etc.  Please refer to the Additional Point Properties section for more detail.

When Device and/or Point Object configuration is complete, select the Submit Config function to save your changes to eDrive.
