XMLparseXMLparse is designed to be a universal software interface to monitor data over time. In situations where your are monitoring a device that has a programmable RS232 port, data can be encoded in XML and easily monitored using XMLparse. By sending a stream of XML data every second, changes in the data can be identified and recorded. XMLparse creates a time stamped record for each bit and number change.Example Station 0 has 48 monitored bits and 2 monitored numbers. Station 0 bit status 47 40 39 32 31 24 23 16 15 8 7 0 00000010 00101000 00000010 01000000 10000000 00000100 Station 0 number values 1 0 503 32000Once per second station 0 sends a stream of XML encoded data to our client computer running XMLparse. See XML Encoded Data for details. *<w,0,2>552</w,0,2><w,0,1>576</w,0,1><w,0,0>32771</w,0,0> <n,0,0>3200</n,0,0><n,0,1>502</n,0,1>$Initially, XMLparse creates a record for each bit and number that is included in the XML data stream. b 19900901231729 000 240 1 // Start of communication b 19900901231729 000 000 0 b 19900901231729 000 001 0 b 19900901231729 000 002 1 b 19900901231729 000 003 0 b 19900901231729 000 004 0 b 19900901231729 000 005 0 b 19900901231729 000 006 0 b 19900901231729 000 007 0 b 19900901231729 000 008 0 b 19900901231729 000 009 0 b 19900901231729 000 010 0 b 19900901231729 000 011 0 b 19900901231729 000 012 0 b 19900901231729 000 013 0 b 19900901231729 000 014 0 b 19900901231729 000 015 1 b 19900901231729 000 016 0 b 19900901231729 000 017 0 b 19900901231729 000 018 0 b 19900901231729 000 019 0 b 19900901231729 000 020 0 b 19900901231729 000 021 0 b 19900901231729 000 022 1 b 19900901231729 000 023 0 b 19900901231729 000 024 0 b 19900901231729 000 025 1 b 19900901231729 000 026 0 b 19900901231729 000 027 0 b 19900901231729 000 028 0 b 19900901231729 000 029 0 b 19900901231729 000 030 0 b 19900901231729 000 031 0 b 19900901231729 000 032 0 b 19900901231729 000 033 0 b 19900901231729 000 034 0 b 19900901231729 000 035 1 b 19900901231729 000 036 0 b 19900901231729 000 037 1 b 19900901231729 000 038 0 b 19900901231729 000 039 0 b 19900901231729 000 040 0 b 19900901231729 000 041 1 b 19900901231729 000 042 0 b 19900901231729 000 043 0 b 19900901231729 000 044 0 b 19900901231729 000 045 0 b 19900901231729 000 046 0 b 19900901231729 000 047 0 n 19900901231729 000 000 32000 n 19900901231729 000 001 503The format of the records is Type Time Stamp Station Element Value (b) bit yyyymmddhhmmss 000/255 000/255 0/1 (n) number yyyymmddhhmmss 000/255 000/255 -3.4E+38 to 3.4E+38If the data stream does not change there will be no additional data records produced.

Records are stored as individual text files. In the case of bit and number records all of the data can be stored in the file name. Future data types may use the body of the file. Each record is also appended to data_bit.txt of data_number.txt safe keeping and troubleshooting. The data in data_bit.txt and data_number.txt is seperated with tabs and can be easily dumped into mysql. mysql> LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE "data_bit.txt" INTO TABLE data_bit; |
