Configuring Itron OpenWay Extendable Lookups
Note:
This section applies to both middleware and native implementations of the Smart Grid Gateway Adapter for Itron OpenWay.
This section outlines some of the extendable lookups that must be configured for use with the Itron OpenWay adapter. Refer to the Oracle Utilities Application Framework documentation for more information about working with extendable lookups.
Application Group Lookup
The Itron OpenWay head-end system allows users to define addressable groups of meters based on criteria such as a geographic identifier or zip code. These application groups can be represented in Oracle Utilities Smart Grid Gateway by using the Itron OpenWay Application Group Lookup. The groups defined for this lookup are used with Scheduled Read commands. Each value defined for the Itron OpenWay Application Group extendable lookup should include the following:
• Application Group: The application group name as defined in the Itron OpenWay head-end system.
• Description: A description of the application group.
Device Event Mapping
The Device Event Mapping extendable lookup is used to determine which type of device event business object to instantiate when receiving device events from the head-end system. Each value defined for the Device Event Mapping extendable lookup should include the following:
• Head-End System Event Name: The event name used by the head-end system
• Description: A description of the device event
• Status: The status of the lookup value (can be Active or Inactive)
• Standard Event Name: The standard event name for device events of this type, from the “Standard Event Name” extendable lookup.
Disconnect Switch State Lookup
Some utilities may require verification of the load on a meter to ensure that it is safe to connect the meter. One method of doing this is to check the disconnect switch on the meter to see if it is connected or armed. To use this method, the Itron Openway Disconnect Switch State extendable lookup should be configured to list the possible states of the meter disconnect switch. Each value defined for the Itron OpenWay Interval Disconnect Switch State extendable lookup should include the following:
• Switch State: The Itron OpenWay disconnect switch state code
• Description: A description of the disconnect switch state code.
UOM Code to Standard UOM Mapping
Usage received from a utility’s head-end system may use utility-specific unit of measures (UOMs). These custom UOMs must be mapped to standard UOM codes. The UOM Code to Standard UOM Mapping extendable lookup is used for this purpose. Each value defined for the UOM Code to Standard UOM Mapping extendable lookup should include the following:
• Head-End Unit of Measure: The unit of measure code used by the Itron OpenWay application
• Description: A description of the unit of measure code.
• Status: The status of the lookup value (can be Active or Inactive)
• Unit of Measure: The unit of measure defined in the system.
• Time of Use: An optional time of use period, defined in the system, used to further distinguish the unit of measure.
• Service Quantity Identifier: An optional service quantity identifier, defined in the system, used to further distinguish the unit of measure.
• Unit of Measure Magnitude Conversion:
◦ Magnitude Multiplier: An optional; multiplier used to convert raw values received from the head-end system to values appropriate for use with the system. For example, if a reading or interval data is received in Wh, a multipler of “.001” would convert Wh to kWh. If not provided or left blank, no conversion is performed.
Interval Status Code to Condition Mapping
Interval usage received from the Itron OpenWay application can include Itron OpenWay interval status codes that indicate the status or condition of the interval value. These interval status codes must be mapped to standard condition codes in the system. The Itron OpenWay Interval Status Code to Condition Mapping extendable lookup is used to determine how to map Itron OpenWay interval status codes to standard status codes when receiving usage from the Itron OpenWay application. Each value defined for the Itron OpenWay Interval Status Code to Condition Mapping extendable lookup should include the following:
• Interval Status: The Itron OpenWay interval status code
• Description: A description of the interval status code.
• Status: The status of the lookup value (can be Active or Inactive)
• Condition: The condition code to which the interval status code is to be mapped, from the Measurement Condition extendable lookup.
