Oxygen 3000

Post by kzlosnik »

Is the ProppFrexx compatible with AxelTech Oxygen 3000, like just "out of the box"?
if not, is it possible to use all Oxygen 3000 features to controll ProppFrexx remotely?

Thanks!

I have never integrated or worked with an Oxygen console, so I cannot really answer it. But from the web site it looks, that only standard contact closure GPIOs are available, eg. no digital protocols for any remote integration, like Ember+ or Livewire+ is available.

However, contact-closure GPIOs can be used via out provided Velleman or Io-Wareior card integrations. This is anyhow nothing ‚out-of-the-box‘.
But what do you mean by all features?

In the end you might try it out before you make any purchase.

See attachment. The screenshot has been taken from that link https://www.axeltechnology.com/public/O ... TER-EN.pdf
Chapters 2.3.2 - 2.3.3
I'm considering to buy that console if PF is going to be controllable via the console.
And tell me if PF can do that.

Any REST API is unfortunately something very proprietary (from TLS, Login, the endpoint definitions, the payload etc.). ProppFrexx could theoretically implement this, but has not for the Oxygen console. As such, there is nothing out of the box. And I also couldn’t find any detailed specification from Axel Techn.

So if you have or know someone with some little coding skills, it would be most effective, if you implement this on your own and use the open command-interface of ProppFrexx. Or you ask Alex Techn., if they either can implement any digital standard?
Else, I could implement this for you, if I am provided with the full definition of what Alex Techn. has implemented.

I have also never worked with the Oxygen.
But when you don’t see any incoming TCP messages in the ProppFrexx monitor for that TCP or USP GPIO Interface, I assume no data arrives…?

is it possible to explain how the axceltech oxygen server arcitecture is build in propfrexx GPIO interface?
there is already something prepared and when i use localhost, or internal ip adres he is not seen... :-(

I am not sure, what you mean by architecture.
It is a simple and easy TCPClient and it listen and sends ACSII text string lines (ending with CRLF, i.e. \r\n).
When receiving an ASCII text line, this text is interpreted using the related Mapping definition.
In this mapping definition you can map a text string to a control-command to be executed. That's it.

I.e. you must define the mapping yourself. In the Monitor... you can see, what text lines are received and probably mapped.
If you do not see any text lines incoming, the IP address or port might be wrong, as there is no other handshake, login or other protocol above defined for the Oxygen.

Hi Bernd,

Thanks for your reply.
When I open the GPIO client, I see the Airtech Oxygen control switched On, and it shows the status CHECK on the main page.

When I go to the UDP/TCP tab, there is the AxelTech Oxygen section. If I enter the device’s IP address and, in this case, port 93, the GPIO status still remains on CHECK.

I was wondering how I can make these two communicate with each other.
