Creating an External System
You must create an external system that represents the head end system and defines a set of outbound message types that can be sent to the head end system.
External System Outbound Message Types
You must configure an outbound message type on the external system for each type of message you will send to the head end system. An external system’s outbound message types are defined by the following:
- Outbound Message Type: The outbound message type created for the message (see Creating Outbound Message Types)
- Processing Method: The method by which the message will be sent. This should be set to “Real-time” Smart Grid Gateway outbound communications.
- Message Sender: The message sender created for the message (see Creating Message Senders)
- Message XSL / Response XSL: XSL files used to transform your message and the response to the message into the appropriate format used by the head end system (Message XSL) and Smart Grid Gateway (Response XSL). Each Smart Grid Gateway adapter includes XSL files for each type of outbound communication.
See External Systems in the Administrative User Guide for more information about creating external systems.
