In certain instances, customers express interest in integrating a new device into Galooli's systems, aiming to establish it as a standard component. This integration is a collaborative effort between the client and Galooli, ensuring the seamless functionality and synchronization of the device with Galooli systems by following to the detailed instructions provided in this document.

If the hardware in question supports one of the common communication protocols that Galooli supports, the customer can complete the entire process independently and get the raw data.

On the other hand, if the following parameters are required, Galooli's involvement is necessary:

• New Device Name

• Default Settings in the Power Center

• Alarms

• X-Ray Parameters

In such cases, the data review and decision regarding whether to proceed with the integration are made by Galooli. This decision is a commercial one and depends on the required effort and the quantity of units involved. If this applies to your case, please contact your designated Galooli representative in advance.

Pre Integration Required Data

If the hardware in question supports one of the common communication protocols that Galooli supports like, RS485, Ethernet, Modbus, Modbus over TCP, SNMP, please gather the following data:

• Device Type (e.g. Rectifier, Generator panel, etc.)

• Brand (e.g. Delta, Eltek, DSE, Cummins)

• Model (e.g. Orion, SmartPack, DSE 7320, PCC1302)

• Technical Manual: A detailed guide for the specific model is required to understand how to configure the device for integration with our system.

• Communication Protocol/MIB File: Depending on the integration type, ensure the appropriate files are available.

• Register/OID List vs. Existing System Fields: Provide a clear mapping of registers or OIDs to the fields already present in our system. If needed, please reach out to your Galooli contact person.

  • Include scaling factors (if applicable).

  • Alarms list

  • List parameters needed for X-Ray depending on the integration type.

  • This section is also applicable for requests to update an existing integration. In such cases, all items remain valid except for providing documentation, which should already exist from the initial integration phase.

Configuration Process

Galooli currently supports the following communication methods and protocols:

1. Ensure that the new device is connected to your computer.

2. According to the product protocol, the following steps should be taken:
   

   • “Modbus” protocol - The Physical Device ID should be configured using the manual guideline that came with the device. Keep a record of the Physical Device ID so you can use it later.
     

   • “Modbus over TCP” protocol - The Device IP address should be configured within the same range as this of the Galooli gateway using the manual instructions provided with the device. For example Elara IP is 192.168.100.101 by default. Keep a record of the Device IP Address so you can use it later.
     

   • “SNMP” protocol - The Device IP address should be configured within the same range as this of the Galooli gateway using the manual instructions provided with the device. For example Elara IP is 192.168.100.101 by default. Keep a record of the Device IP Address so you can use it later.
     

3. Disconnect the device from the computer.

4. Download the Galooli Power Center platform.

5. Assemble the Elara gateway and connect it to a power source and your computer.

6. Connect the the new device to the Elara gateway.

7. Open the Power Center and make a serial connection to the Elara gateway.

8. Configure the new device in the Power Center:

• Depending on the device communication method/protocol, select the appropriate method of adding the device to the Power Center:

  • RS485-Modbus → “Add Port 1 Device”

  • Ethernet-Modbus over TCP → “Add MODBUS ETH Device”

  • Ethernet-SNMP → “Add SNMP ETH Device”
    

    

• Select the appropriate device >> change the "Physical Device ID" to the device ID you specified in the previous paragraph (Paragraph 3). Click “Apply”.

• Click "Write configuration", wait until the process is complete, and then click "Reset".
  

  

• Choose the "Configuration" tab, double click on the existing device, click on the “Port” line and click on “Add item”.

  

• The following wizard will allow you to choose the “Assignment” and specify the different parameters for that assignment. Listed below are Galooli's recommendations for the required assignments.
  Add the first assignment, fill in the parameters using the technical specification manual that came with the device, and apply the changes.
  

  

• Click "Write configuration", wait until the process is complete, and then click "Reset".
  

  

• Click on the "Status" tab, open the relevant device option, and compare the Power Center value of the assignment you added in the previous step with the actual value. Thus, you will be able to verify the accuracy of the readings in Power Center.
  

  

• Repeat the process for each assignment separately. After each new assignment is added, be sure to click "Write configuration", wait until the process has been completed, and then click "Reset". For each new assignment , make sure to verify the receiving of data each time.
  

• Ensure that all relevant alarms are listed, as well as any remote control parameters. The technical specifications/datasheet of the product contains all the relevant information. You may need to contact the manufacturer if necessary. Apply the changes to complete the process.
  

• Click "Write configuration", wait until the process is complete, and then click "Reset".

10. The configuration that you have made must be saved by clicking on "Save As", which will create a GIB file that is required for the next steps.
    

    

11. Submit a support ticket through the Galooli solution to the Galooli support team. The ticket should contain the following information:

    1. Describe your request for the creation of a new default integration with a new hardware product

    2. Provide the full name, model, and method of communication of the product

    3. Let Galooli know what hours and days the unit will be connected to a power source and the network so that they may conduct their own tests

    4. Upload the GIB file

    5. Include all technical documents related to the product

Galooli Recommended Assignments

Using Galooli's recommended assignments requires finding the appropriate protocol, locating the assignments, and returning to the last paragraph you reviewed.
