WebSphere brand IBM WebSphere Premises Server 6.1 Feature Pack for Sensor Event Services

Commissioning

The Commissioning Reusable Component records the commissioning of tags, optionally to assets, in the back-end system.

This Reusable Component indicates to the system that the tags are in use, possibly applied to assets, and ready to be observed by the sensor network. In order to validate that a tag or group of tags has been commissioned, call the Validation Reusable Component, which returns a value of false if any tags are not currently commissioned. Tags that will be destroyed or no longer used can be decommissioned by calling the Decommissioning Reusable Component.

All IBM® Sensor Event data and payload metadata are maintained in a call to the EPCIS Connector. For more information, see Working with the EPCIS Connector sample application.

Methods

Using the Commissioning Reusable Component

To invoke the Commissioning Reusable Component using IBM Sensor Events or XML, the payload must include:
  • PassiveRFIDTagRead
  • PassiveRFIDAggregatedTagRead
Generic payload created from a map can also be used. It must include either of the following:
  • CommissioningRUCConstants.TAG_KEY_INOUT
  • CommissioningRUCConstants.TAGLIST_KEY_INOUT
Note: TAG_KEY_INOUT takes a String value. TAGLIST_KEY_INOUT takes a value of java.util.List populated with Strings.
To publish to Reusable Components MDBs, set the following values for the JMS topic and eventType. For single-action Reusable Components, the topic is only checked in the message selector.
  • commission: profileid/rucaction/commissioning
The JMS topic and eventType for the MDB output from the Reusable Component comes from the agent properties. Default output topics for success and failure for each action are shown in Table 1.
