Forwarding to an InfluxDB server

We forward messages to an InfluxDB server by writing points into the measurements of the bucket(s) we have been granted access to.

These are the messages that are supported:

Solar power

The schema for messages forwarded from a Teleport device that is connected to a solar inverter:

Battery power

Batteries produce two types of messages: regular messages and flash messages. For the strings that can occur in the errors and warnings properties, see Battery power error and warning codes.

Flash messages

Batteries report flash messages more often than regular messages (typically every second) and contain information that is needed for dispatching algorithms and to forward to the TSO when doing aFRR/FCR.
