Chapter 6: Using the Web Interface147Configuring Data Push SettingsIf any Raritan asset sensors have been connected to EMX, you can pushthe asset sensor data to a remote server for data synchronization. Thedata will be sent in JSON format using HTTP POST requests. You needto set up the destination and authentication for data push on the EMX.For instructions on connecting asset sensors, see Connecting AssetManagement Sensors (on page 25).After configuring the destination and authentication settings, do either orboth of the following: To perform the data push after the occurrence of a certain event,create the data push action and assign it to an event rule. See PushOut Sensor Readings (on page 194). To push the data at a regular interval, schedule the data push action.See Scheduling an Action (on page 211).To configure data push settings:1. Choose Device Settings > Data Push. The Data Push dialogappears.2. Click New. The Add New Destination dialog appears.3. In the URL field, determine the following information. Click the arrow to select http or https. Type the URL or host name in the accompanying text box.4. If the destination server requires authentication, select the "Useauthentication" checkbox, and provide the authentication information: In the "User name" field, type the login name. In the Password field, type the login password.5. In the "Entry type" field, determine the data that will be transmitted. Asset management information: Transmit the information of thespecified asset sensor(s), including the general status of thespecified sensor(s) and a list of asset tags on blade extensionstrips if any. Asset management log: Transmit the log of all asset sensors,which is generated when there are changes made to asset tagsand asset sensors, including asset tag connection ordisconnection events.6. If "Asset management information" is selected in the above step,specify the asset sensor(s) whose log to send. The EMX has onlyone FEATURE port so only one asset sensor is available. To specify the asset sensor, select it in the Available list box andclick (Add) or (Add All).
