RFC brief 2017-01-31 Main Role of Orange PI
- Orange Pi acts as hub gathering data from I/O modules connected by RS485 or different way.
- I/O Modules will communicate by wifi (tests), than communication through modbus/profinet (to be set further)
- Orange Pi collect data with stable intervals (1000 Hz)
- Data are stored in internal ram, than maybe be local databases to achieve protection against power-loose
- To test we can test own communication model - the lates is to implement DDS
- System configuration the best to be set by WEB because of adressing of I/O Modules
- It can be done by broadcast to ask if there are any new I/O modules to detect them
- It is possible to assign addresses of I/O Modules by configuring websitesNote: There might be some obslolete scenarios of web managing by using configuration file- which can be simplier.
