Click on the "Datalogger" icon. Tutorial7-1.png

Select the type "counter". Counter: suitable for the creation of statistics of an incremental value (e.g. energy consumption or production). It calculates the variation (delta) of the value for each time interval with respect to the previous one. Further, it is possible to specify time slots and the relative rates to calculate for instance the costs for energy consumption.

Let's assign a generic ID to this Datalogger, for example "d1"

The default settings are ok for this example. Leave everything unchanged.

Datalogger logic

Open the "Project Editor" and add a "button" object linked with datapoint "dummy.light.1" If you need further information about the Dummy I/O server please read this: Tutorial5

Now edit the events.txt file from the "File Manager" Add these lines:

io dummy.light.1 = 1 : $counter! + 1
$counter! : uiset display1.text = $counter!, datalogger d1 = $counter!

The first line increases by 1 the value of the variable $counter! any time the virtual DUMMY light is turned on. The second line updates the text object with id “display1” and the Datalogger “d1” to the new value of the “$counter!” variable
