This is a standard Node.js module developed specifically to function within the Node-RED ecosystem.
Use the following procedure to install this module to your Node-RED instance, or download the pre-themed Bitpool-Edge Docker image that contains all our favourite nodes pre-installed.
Log into your Bitpool-Edge instance and click the Hamburger icon, in the top-right corner.
Select Manage Palette from the drop down menu then click the Pallete->Install tabs to install.
Using the search bar type @bitpoolos/edge-integriti and install the module once displayed.
Finally, use the left most navigation menu to scroll down to the heading Bitpool Integriti to reveal available nodes.
The Integriti library contains a single node / functional block.
Integriti Device - Allows for the connection to a device in the Integriti API and returns the latest available data for the connected system.
The image above is an example of a linked Integriti Device node on a Flow tab. This is the basic flow of data.
The ‘Trigger’ node injects a simple timestamp into the Integriti Device node.
The Integriti Device node contains an API configuration along with a device selection which is used to retireve the latest data for the system.
Finally, the Output node prints the payload to the mqtt broker for the user to see.
Server - this is the server end-point used to initiate an API connection.
Port - relevant port for the server connection.
Selection Window - A selection tree view of the assocaiated controllers in the Integriti System.
Doors - Allows selection of required Doors to be polled for current state.
Inputs - Allows selection of required Inputs to be polled for current state.
Controllers - Allows selection of required Controllers to be polled for current state.
Now that your Bitpool-Edge is up and running, we have included simple example flows to demonstrate how to create a basic solution.
Log into your Bitpool-Edge instance and click the Hamburger icon, in the top-right corner.
Select Manage Palette from the drop down menu then click the Import->Examples tabs to see this node.
Navigate the ‘Examples flows’ tree and select @bitpoolos/edge-integriti to reveal the preconfigured examples.
Click the example you would like to test then click the Import button.
Place the example nodes on a flow and review the configuration of each node. You will need to make suitable changes for your system.
Finally, click the Save to test.
