Access to the Water Level Data
The water level data that is being sent by the ORB can be viewed in various ways:
1)
Login the ORB on your local network and view the real-time serial data being sent.
2)
Login to the Senquip Portal (portal.senquip.com) and view the real-time serial data or alternately view or
download the data from the table view under “Raw Data”.
3)
Configure the ORB to send the data to a UDP, HTTP or MQTT server. In this case, the data will arrive on the
remote server in in JSON format. In the example below, the ORB device ID is 4A0AC62C0. Note that Current
Loop peripheral also sends the voltage that is measured on the output. This can be used to check that the
current drawn by the external device is within limits and is not applying excessive load to the ORB’s 12V
supply.
{“deviceid”:”4A0AC62C0”,”current1”:”0.41”, “v_current1”:”12.04”}
Conclusion
The physical connection and setup required to connect a 4-20mA level sensor to the ORB is quick and simple. Once
connected, the level data provided by the level sensor can be viewed anywhere in the world on the internet or on a
company server.
