Conectric server

This service is used to configure and manage the Conectric server.

The Conectric server can be installed on the "Services" tab within the DINGO-Manager. The server can also be installed from a SSH terminal with this command: sudo sh -c "$(curl -s http://apps.control2net.com/apt/install-conectric-gateway)"

To configure the Conectric server; select the Conectric service and click the "Main config. file..." button. See screenshot.

The Conectric server is used to read data from wireless Conectric sensors and sends the data to the DINGO-Stack Unix domain socket (/dev/shm/DINGOConectricUnixSocket). If the appropriate templates have been created for the sensors, then the DINGO-Stack will automatically create and configure these sensors as virtual BACnet devices.

The Conectric Server runs under Node.js. The current installation will not install Node.js, if it is missing. This must be done manually via SSH.

The currently recommended Node.js is v12.18.3. Here are Node.js install instructions:

sudo su

curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_12.x | bash -

apt-get install -y nodejs

Note:

Node.js v11.x or later are currently not supported on ARMv6 hardware. Please visit https://nodejs.org/ for possible workaround.
