Temperature Monitor
Picolo.net HD1 embeds a temperature sensor located inside the enclosure in the vicinity of the
processor.
The temperature monitor circuit repeatedly measures the temperature and issues an alert when
it exceeds the upper limit.
The measured temperature value is expressed in °C. It is available from:
□
The device Web Pages: inside the Device Information panel of the Home Page.
□
The Web Services: by means of the
GetTemperature
function of the Proprietary Device
service.
□
The Event Service: by means of the
Temperature
item in the Temperature topic of the
Device topic set.
When a temperature alert occurs, the user is invited to shut-down the device as soon as possible
in order to prevent permanent damages.
Time and Date
Automatic Time and Date Synchronization Method
The automatic synchronization method keeps the device time and date in sync with the time and
date of up to two NTP servers or a USB GPS unit.
This method requires to have access to at least one NTP server on the network.
The IP address of the NTP servers can be:
□
Obtained automatically using DHCP providing that the DHCP server on the network
provides this service.
□
Manually configured.
An out-of-the-box device, or a device after a "restore factory settings" procedure, is configured
for an automatic synchronization using NTP.
Time Source Configuration
Time and Date
panel on
Device Management
page reports the current time source as either
NTP
,
GPS
or
local
.
Select the
Time Source
in the drop-down list on the
Edit Date & Time
web page:
●
NTP
to only use Network Time Protocol and configured NTP servers to define the device local
time.
Attaching a GPS unit has no effect on the system time.
●
NTP + GPS
uses preferably the locally-attached GPS unit to define the device local time.
□
If no GPS is attached, the system time is aligned on the configured NTP servers.
