TRB141 Event juggler, excessive traffic

Networking Solutions
1

Hi,

I’m using three TRB141 to monitor groundsource heatpumps. Two relays are used to monitor alarms and the analog input is used to monitor the supply temperatures. Data is sent to thingsboard via mqtt. I’m having issues that they are using too much data (around 150 mb/day). Alarms are sent when they occur (very rarely) and temps are sent every 5 minutes. Traffic is routed through ipsec tunnel which adds overhead but should’nt be that much.

Compared to the TRB143’s I use (which send a lot more data) they seem to behave differently. I dont know if the “event juggler” function behves differently than the “data to server”. But the juggler seems to open way too many connections to the thingsboard mqtt compared to “data to server”.

See the two netstat prints below. Thingsboard is assigned 192.168.120.211. The TRB143 has one connection open when it sends. The TRB143 on the other hand has three (one for analog, two fo relays I assume), but there are way too many closed and waiting connections for some reason?

Currently on firmware TRB1_R_00.07.16.3.

Hi there,

I’ll reach out to our R&D in regards to the excessive data usage and will get back to you once I have an answer.

Regards,
M.

Hello,

Could you clarify what is your QoS option set to on both of the devices, and what signal strengths are you getting on both of the devices? The QoS settings can be found under the action data configuration: TRB141 Event Juggler - Teltonika Networks Wiki

Signal strengths can be found under Status → Network → Mobile (please blur out any sensitive information such as IMEI, your Public IP address, IMSI, ICCID, etc).

Regards,
M.

Tanks!

QoS is set to 0 for the analogue input (which is sent every 5 minutes), for the two relays it is set to 1 (at least once) since they are two alarms and it is important that they are transmitted securely. The alarms do not trigger often, so far it has only happened when we manually triggered them during testing.

Reception isn’t the greatest but decent considering that they are placed in basements.

/EDIT - the TRB143 is set to QoS 0.

Morning,

I haven’t received any email so far, when should I expect it? I have checked the spam as well but nothing there.
