Con fi guring the
RFM220 Aggregator
The RFM220 Aggregator is con fi gured using the Con fi guration.xml fi le, which
contains various user-de fi ned parameters that control the communications
between the three components of the RFM220 system: instrument,
Aggregator, and Client. Consult with your local network administrator before
setting these parameters.
Con fi guration change requirements. The Con fi guration.xml fi le can be
updated dynamically. This means that after the fi le has been initially set up
during the installation process, the fi le can be updated while the Aggregator
is running. The Aggregator will automatically load the parameters from the
updated Con
fi guration.xml fi le when changes to the fi le are saved.
CAUTION.
The RFM220 software will not work properly if you have more
than one RFM220 Aggregator monitoring an RFM220 instrument at a time.
The Aggregator can communicate with multiple instruments at a time, but an
individual instrument can only communicate with one Aggregator at a time.
In the case where more than one Aggregator has connected to an
RFM220 instrument, only the last Aggregator to connect to the instrument will
receive SNMP trap messages from the instrument.
The RFM220 system requires the Con fi guration.xml fi le in order to operate.
It is recommended that you backup this fi le to a safe location. A copy of the
default fi le is located on the RFM220 Software and Documentation CD that
was shipped with the product.
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.
