RSMP Traffic Light Controllers Connector

The RSMP connector connects a traffic light controller to Yggio over RSMP, the open protocol road authorities use to supervise roadside equipment of all kinds. The connector is named for traffic light controllers because that is the equipment Yggio decodes today. The controller reports the state of its signal groups and detector logics, and Yggio turns that into ordinary devices.

Getting a site into Yggio takes three steps, and only the first is this connector:

  1. Create the connector, once per site. It holds the site identifier and the watchdog. That is this page.
  2. Install the controller component, the device representing the controller itself.
  3. Install the detector logics and signal groups, one device per position you want to follow.

Steps 2 and 3 are device installations rather than connector settings, and nothing is created automatically: each device is installed and given its role and its position. They are described, together with what the roles mean and how the data behaves once it arrives, under RSMP (Traffic Management).

Creating the Connector​

  1. Navigate to Connectors → New Connector → RSMP Traffic Light Controllers.
  2. Select the retention policy and flow, then continue.
  3. Fill in the connector details:

RSMP connector details, with the Site ID and Watchdog fields

FieldDescription
NameA name for the connector. One per site, so name it after the site
Site IDThe RSMP site identifier, for example RG0001. It must match what the controller announces, or the connection is refused
WatchdogTimeout in seconds before the connection is considered lost. Default 300
  1. Confirm the details and create the connector.

Next​

The connector on its own produces no data. Continue with installing the components, starting with the controller.

Troubleshooting​

Nothing connects. The Site ID must match what the controller announces. It is the first thing to check, because a mismatch is refused rather than reported as a data problem.

The connection drops and returns. The watchdog is the timeout before Yggio treats the connection as lost. A site on a slow or intermittent link may need a longer value than the default 300 seconds.

The connector exists but nothing reports. Expected until components are installed. The connector carries the session; the devices are what hold the data.

For problems with an individual component, a device reporting nothing or reporting the wrong position, see RSMP (Traffic Management).
