Collecting Data from a Domino Printer

This example shows how to connect to and exchange information with a Domino industrial printer.

• Step 1: Create the module: (Config => Modules => New module) 

• Step 2: Provide a name for the module (in this example, DominoClient has been used) and set the module type to DominoClient in Module Type. 

• Step 3: Configure the Logger and API for this module. In this example, the default configuration has been left unchanged since, in most cases, this is a valid configuration.

• Step 4: Create a new device (Config => Modules => DominoClient => Model => New Device)

• Step 5: Provide a name for the device (in this example, the name is Device01) and configure it as shown in the below image.

The main parameters to be configured are as follows:

• Enable data collection: True
• Connection
  • Type: TCP
  • Config: 
    • Host: 10.101.9.31
    • TCP Port: 7000
    • Reconnect Delay: 60000

The rest of the parameters will be left with the default values.

At this point, the connection is ready and we can now move on to creating new tags

• Step 6: Create a new tag (Config => Tags => Model => New tag),

• Step 7: Give it a name (in this case Current Status) and configure the tag parameters according to the below image.

.

• Source
  • Enabled: Yes
  • Module type: DominoClient
  • Module name: DominoClient
  • Config
    • Device: Device01
    • Group: Extensions
    • Variable: Current Status
    • Head Select: 1
    • Index: 000
    • Scan rate: 5,000.

• Step 8: The tag should now be available and displayed with good quality in the Real-Time display
