SENSOR XML FILES GENERATION

GENERATING XML FILES FROM AN INPUT TEXT FILE

CREATING THE INPUT TEXT FILE
To automatically generate several XML files, simply import a text file containing the data to be converted.
To create this input file, you can use the Windows ‘Notepad’ application (or any other text editor) and save it as a text file. Its name, encoding format and saving directory do not matter.
Each line of the file represents a sensor.
To add new data to it, you can use free mobile apps such as ‘CortexScan’ or ‘QRbot’ (available from ‘App Store’ and ‘Google Play’), scan the sensor’s radome Datamatrix (of the top of sensor) and paste string data.
Here is an example of a text file created called ‘Sensors’ and containing 20 sensors.

SENSeOR UM00401 24-7 Asset Monitoring Solution Energy-
FIG12NOTE
THERE IS NO LIMITATION ON THE NUMBER OF SENSORS TO CONVERT.

IMPORT OF THE CREATED TEXT FILE
Click on the ‘Open file’ button and browse the created text file.

SENSeOR UM00401 24-7 Asset Monitoring Solution Energy-
FIG13

Click on ‘Open’. The application will load the content of the file into the ‘Data to convert’ text box and the text file path in the ‘Input file path’ text box.
Once data conversion is done, a message indicates how many XML files have been generated.

SENSeOR UM00401 24-7 Asset Monitoring Solution Energy-
FIG14

By clicking on the ‘OK’ button, the application is ready to start a new conversion.
By clicking on the ‘Open output directory’ button, the previous ‘Data to convert’ content is cleared and the application launches Windows explorer to view created files.

GENERATING XML FILES FROM LIVE DATA
The other way to generate the sensor XML files is to directly paste the radome Datamatrix (located of the top of the sensor) data into the ‘Data to convert’ text box.
To do this, you can use a Datamatrix-compatible USB scanner like this one.

To add new data, click on the ‘Data to convert’ text box and scan as many Datamatrix as needed. Line wrap is automatic after each scan.

When all the sensors are scanned, click on the ‘Convert’ button to start conversion.

Once data conversion is done, a message indicates how many XML files have been generated.
