Instruction manual Wav WaveGuide Server
Single value
The format of the single value string is as follows;
time=<TIME>;sensor=<SENSOR NAME>;<PARAMETER NAME>=<PARAMETER VALUE><PARAMETER
UNIT>;
•
<TIME> gives time in ms since 1 Jan 1970 (GMT of UTC of UT)
•
<SENSOR NAME> the name given to the sensor by the user.
•
<PARAMETER NAME> This is the name conform the data type definition. In general these are as given
in the file '/waveguide/WGS/DataTypes.txt' .
•
<PARAMETER VALUE> is a float, if needed with exponent. If the value is ‘invalid’ it is written as
NaN.
•
<PARAMETER UNIT> The physical units given in the dataypes file. This field can be empty.
Example:
time=1306937130000;sensor=standpijp;H=-5.180469cm;
Multi value
The format is the same as for the single value strings except for the values.
time=<TIME>;sensor=<SENSOR NAME>;<PARAMETER NAME>=<<PARAMETER
VALUE>,<PARAMETER VALUE>,<PARAMETER VALUE>...><PARAMETER UNIT>;
If all values in the message are not available only one NaN will appear.
Examples:
time=1306937346768;sensor=standpijp;Radcan=410.0,0.0,-6.1102905,-
0.5495228,416.38654,415.83405,2.4105468E7,2.4097992E7,4738362.5,4712177.5;
time=1306937346768;sensor=standpijp;Czz10=NaNcm2/Hz;
KMA format
Sometimes some small modifications are made on request. The Korean Metoffice (KMA) preferred a readable
time format in the Korean time zone. Also the End of Line character '0x0a' is not included.
time=2006/09/04 17:58:00;H1=-319.70026cm;
time=2006/09/04 17:48:59;Hm0=1.3314528cm;
time=2006/09/04 17:59:00;H1=-319.7222cm;
time=2006/09/04 17:49:59;Hm0=1.2973408cm;
time=2006/09/04 18:03:00;H1=NaNcm;
SESAM format
Dutch Rijkswaterstaat (RWS) uses the SESAM format. This format is only defined for the heave data and for H
data (= 10 seconds mean). It consists of 8 character lines ;
line feed, status, sign, 4level value in cm, carriage return
+0001
