Cloud Data Use Infomation:
The cloud service communicates with the solar dashboard and your personal device independently. When not in use, the solar dashboard sends only heartbeats to the cloud server. When someone logs in to the cloud service, the next heartbeat is used to instruct the solar dashboard to send all available historical data since the last login.
This is done to reduce data consumption on the cloud to solar dashboard internet connection. Often, this connection is metered, such as with a 4G/3G internet stick. So a low data use is desirable. The default data consumption of heartbeats only is about 7 MB/day. There is a heartbeat every 5 seconds by default. The heartbeat frequency can be adjusted in the config file. To do this, add the following line to the config file:
Code: Select all
cloudSyncInterval=10
Code: Select all
Data use in Kilobytes/day = 86400 / cloudSyncInterval * 0.4
When the client accesses their solar dashboard in the cloud, the dashboard will transmit data to the cloud. Each day of solar data will be transmitted if it is not already on the cloud. Each day of data is approximately 120 KB. When the user is logged in and looking at the dashboard, today's data will be refreshed every half hour. So each month expect to use 3.6 MB transferring solar data to the cloud and about 0.3 MB for every hour viewing the solar dashboard.
