ArtecoOC

The ARTECOOC I/O Server can be used to interface HSYCO and the Arteco Next platform using the Arteco Open Connector SDK protocol.

The current release of the I/O Server has been tested with the Arteco Open Connector protocol V6. It automatically handles connection and authentication to the OC server, and offers simple commands to send events and control output devices.

HSYCO Configuration

Add an ARTECOOC I/O Server in the I/O Servers section of the Settings and set its parameters:

Communication

• IP Address: host name or IP address of the Arteco Open Connector server
• IP Port: TCP/IP port to use, leave blank to use default port 80
• User: username
• Password: password.

High Availability

• Shutdown when inactive: defaults to false.

Options

ID	Default	Values	Description
startupevents	false	true	generate IO events also during the driver’s start-up phase
		false	start generating events only after HSYCO is aligned with the current status of the system
inputdiscovery	false	true	automatically creates the list of all inputs in the systemtopo.txt file. Should be enabled to allow the automatic update of (button) objects’ states
		false	auto-detect for input devices is disabled
outputdiscovery	false	true	automatically creates the list of all outputs in the systemtopo.txt file. Should be enabled to allow the automatic update of (button) objects’ states
		false	auto-detect for output devices is disabled
inputs	8	0 ... 8	use input pins from 0 to the specified value
outputs	8	0 ... 8	use output pins from 0 to the specified value

Datapoints

The data points associated to the input pins are named “i0” to “i7”. The data points associated to the output pins are named “o0” to “o7”.

The I/O Server generates asynchronous events based on the status of the Arteco module’s input and output pins. The output data points can be written to control the output pins.

ID	Value	R/W	Description
connection	online	R	connection established
	offline	R	HSYCO can't connect to the panel
i<n>	0	R	input <n> is low
	1	R	input <n> is high
o<n>	0	R	output <n> is low
		W	set output <n> to off
	1	R	output <n> is high
		W	set output <n> to on
	flip	W	invert the status of output <n>
	blink	W	continuously blink output <n>
	pulse	W	set output <n> to on, then off after 1 sec.

User Interface

When using the default settings of the Arteco I/O Server, all output pins are available in the Project Editor and can be easily associated to any control button of the Web interface.

You can also set the inputdiscovery option in order to associate control buttons to the module’s inputs: the control buttons will show the input status, and have no effect when pressed.
