In this chapter, we introduce the cloud connection settings and cloud white-list. Before uploading data to the cloud, the user must finish the cloud connection settings. The setting page is on the node property
Click the SCADA nodeà Click Node Property
Configuring the connection information on the WISE-PaaS Connection Setting section à Summited
You can get SCADA ID, Credential Key, DCCS API Url after you created SCADA.
Connection setting properties:
· Enable: the connection status with the Boolean attribute, Enable property can be set to keep a cloud connection until the connection attribute is disabled
· SCADA ID: The unique ID of the WISE-PaaS SCADA
· Keep-Alive Interval: the keep-alive interval is used to maintain the connection with the broker and retry feature for delivering messages
· Data Publish Interval (second):Setting the time interval to publish the data. The kernel will publish data according to this interval.
· Publish Data via Value Changed: A Boolean attribute to determine the way to send data. Select “Yes” means send data to MQTT broker when value changed. Select “No” means to send data to MQTT broker by data publish time interval, no matter the data value changed or not.
· Credential Key: the credential key is used to access DCCS
· DCCS API URL: Provides Edge Device to quickly obtain credentials and connect to WISE-PaaS platform
Note –The device ID is critical for cloud device, as the device ID is unique for each record.
