OWL Energy Monitor
Description
This primitive allows you to interface to an OWL Energy Monitor. It will work either with a direct connection via USB cable or using an OWL
USB adapter for connecting wirelessly.
Once you have the board connected to your PC you need to start the component by sending a trigger to the 'Start' input. The 'On' output will
return True if a connection has been established (False otherwise). If successful the 'Status' output should change from “Not Started” to
“Started”.
To read data send a trigger to the 'Read' input. The status should change to “Connected - Waiting for OWL data”. It may take up to a minute
or two to find any devices and gather their readings so keep triggering the Read input until your devices are found. If you want to get
continuous readings use a Ticker25 or a timer to repeatedly trigger the 'Read' input.
When devices are located the status will change to “Connected - Data read successfully”. The device ids are sent as an array via the
'Devices' output. The corresponding current readings (in Amps) are sent as an array via the 'Readings' output.
If you are connecting wirelessly and pick up more than one device you can focus on a particular one by passing its id into the 'Selected
Device' input. The reading from the device will be sent out through the 'Selected Device' output. If no device id is supplied then the 'Selected
Device' output will show the reading for the first device.
