"Tricks of the Trade"

The topics in this section deal with User tips, hints and shortcuts that may make using the Gateway with the ENGAGE Platform easier.

The following topics are included:

1. Monitoring Large Database File Transmissions

   To monitor large database file transmissions, go to the Gateway API Linking and Controlling Edge Devices Section:

   GET /edgeDevices/{linkId}/dbDownloadStatus and use the Gateway Firmware versions 1.49.24 to latest information.

   When this resource is used, it returns the status of the previous database transfer from the device.

2. Canceling In-Progress Database File Transmissions

   To cancel an in-progress database file transmission, go to the Gateway API Linking and Controlling Edge Devices Section:

   DELETE /edgeDevices/{linkId}/database and use the Gateway Firmware versions 1.49.24 to latest information. Refer to the ENGAGE JSON Data Structures information for the different responses.

3. Performing Firmware Updates on Devices Using the Gateway

   The example JSON below illustrates how to initiate a firmware update for all linked NDE edge devices to take effect immediately.

   Example JSON:

   {
    "gatewayConfig": {
     "edgeDeviceFwUrls": [
     {
     "fwurl": "http://192.168.43.24/nde_02.08.13_Releasepkg.02.08.13.bin",
     "mdl": "nde",
     "fwDwnldTm": "0",
     "fwImplTm": "0",
     "fwVer": "02.08.13"
     }
     ]
    }
   }
