IEEE 2030.5 Driver Configuration

Communicating with IEEE 2030.5 devices requires that the IEEE 2030.5 Agent is configured and running. All device communication happens through this agent. For information about the IEEE 2030.5 Agent, please see IEEE 2030.5 DER Support.

driver_config

There are two arguments for the “driver_config” section of the IEEE 2030.5 device configuration file:

• sfdi - Short-form device ID of the IEEE 2030.5 device.
• ieee2030_5_agent_id - ID of VOLTTRON’s IEEE 2030.5 agent.

Here is a sample IEEE 2030.5 device configuration file:

{
    "driver_config": {
        "sfdi": "097935300833",
        "IEEE2030_5_agent_id": "iee2030_5agent"
    },
    "campus": "campus",
    "building": "building",
    "unit": "IEEE2030_5",
    "driver_type": "ieee2030_5",
    "registry_config": "config://ieee2030_5.csv",
    "interval": 15,
    "timezone": "US/Pacific",
    "heart_beat_point": "Heartbeat"
}

A sample IEEE 2030.5 driver configuration file can be found in the VOLTTRON repository in services/core/MasterDriverAgent/example_configurations/test_ieee2030_5_1.config.

IEEE 2030.5 Registry Configuration File

For a description of IEEE 2030.5 registry values, see IEEE 2030.5 DER Support.

A sample IEEE 2030.5 registry configuration file can be found in the VOLTTRON repository in services/core/MasterDriverAgent/example_configurations/ieee2030_5.csv.
