Chapter 8: Advanced Driver Metrics 2.0

Please note that the Organic Response June 2024 release will only enable the nodes to collect data in this firmware release. Although collected by the response node, the information will not currently be accessible to the users. In the future Response API (RESTful API) release, the users can access the data once the relevant endpoints are exposed.

11.1. Introduction

Advanced driver metrics are data sets collected in real-time by compatible smart drivers. Information such as real-time energy monitoring and time of manufacture can serve as a powerful tool in predictive maintenance and improved user experience among other benefits.

Response nodes can read most of the DALI driver’s memory banks (specified in DALI parts 102, 250, 251, 252, and 253) and send it to the Response Portal’s Database.

This feature is only available via Response SN3 nodes with firmware version 191.27 or higher. Therefore, ADM 1.0 through the app will be deprecated for these nodes.

Nodes with lower firmware versions can still obtain ADM data via the Response app, as mentioned in Advanced Driver Metrics.

11.2. Pre-requisites

In order to utilize the data a few pre-requisites need to be met such as,

  1. Compatible PIC firmware version (v191.27 or higher)

  2. Response Portal connected installation

  3. The driver must be from the approved list of drivers with the following DALI parts: 102, 250, 251, 252, and 253.

If the driver doesn’t have one or more of the necessary parts, the metrics that’s associated with said parts will not be available.

  1. No more than 12 devices (in any combination including this device type) are connected to a node.

11.3. Operational Principle

Once the node is powered on, it will detect the attached drivers and begin collecting data. The collected data will be sent to the Portal at 1-hour intervals. The Portal will then process the messages from the node, accounting for the connected drivers.

The Portal will only process the mapped nodes.

At the moment this feature will not include display of these Advanced Driver Metrics in the portal UI.

11.4. Available Metrics

There will be two types of driver metrics that will be collected from the nodes, Static Data and Timeseries Data.

These two types and respective data sets that are collected by the Response nodes are listed below,

11.5. How is Data Collected

The data flow for the two different types of ADM data is as follow.

11.5.1. Time series Data

The nodes query ADM data every hour and send them to the Portal at 1-hour interval. This data will be stored in the Portal Timeseries data base. When you make an API query in the future, the Portal retrieves the ADM data from the Timeseries database and responds with the stored data.

11.5.2. Static Data

The static data is not readily stored in the database. When you initiate an API query, the Portal performs a live query from the node and responds with the ADM data. This data is then stored in the database as well for future queries.
