Getting Started
3. The RFM220 Aggregator window displays messages as the application
initializes. When the initialization is complete, you will see the message
“Aggregator is ready.” (See Figure 20.)
CAUTION.
To prevent communication problems with the RFM220 system, wait
until you see the message “Aggregator is ready” in the Aggregator window
before you use the RFM220 Client to connect to the Aggregator.
During the initialization process, the Aggregator sets trap destinations,
disables some alarms, and establishes communications with each RFM220
instrument that the Aggregator is con
fi gured to monitor. The initialization
process must complete before monitoring data is valid.
The Aggregator initialization process takes approximately 70 seconds for each
RFM220 instrument that the Aggregator will monitor. For example, if the
Aggregator is con
fi gured to monitor 10 instruments, it will take approximately
11-12 minutes for the initialization process to complete.
The Aggregator continously monitors the Con fi guration.xml fi le. Whenever
the fi le is edited and saved, any changes that were made to the fi le will
immediately change the Aggregator con fi guration.
After a con fi guration change, the Aggregator requires approximately 2
minutes to recon fi gure for each instrument listed in the Con fi guration.xml fi le.
To prevent software problems, you should wait at least 2 minutes after saving
a change for each instrument listed in the
fi le before you make additional
changes to the Con fi guration.xml fi le. For example, if 5 instruments are listed
in the fi le, you should wait 10 minutes before making additional changes.
The Aggregator will display the message “An attempt was made to access a
socket in a way forbidden by its access permissions” if it detects con
fl icts with
another device on a communication port. In this case, you will need to edit the
Con
fi guration.xml fi le to change the con fi gured port to an unused port number.
