RotatingMachine Example Flows

These flows are import-ready Node-RED examples focused on the rotatingMachine node.

Files

• basic.flow.json Purpose: quick manual control + local visualization. Includes:

• mode selection

• startup/shutdown/emergency buttons

• setpoint control

• simulated upstream/downstream pressure input

• local charts for predicted flow/power/ctrl

• integration.flow.json Purpose: richer scenario testing from dashboard controls. Includes:

• sequence controls (startup/shutdown/maintenance)

• direct setpoint + flowMovement commands

• simulated pressure inputs

• charts for flow, power, NCog%

• state snapshot text

• edge.flow.json Purpose: intentionally send invalid/boundary inputs and observe behavior. Includes:

• invalid mode command

• negative setpoint command

• disallowed source sequence command

• unsupported simulated measurement type

• debug outputs for process/influx/parent channels

Requirements

• EVOLV rotatingMachine node installed/available in Node-RED.
• FlowFuse Dashboard 2 nodes installed (ui-base, ui-page, ui-group, etc.).

Import

1. In Node-RED, use Import and select one of the *.flow.json files.
2. Deploy.
3. Open the dashboard page path configured in the flow.

Notes

• These examples are manual by design: no auto-start on deploy.
• Pressure simulation uses msg.topic = "simulateMeasurement" handled by the rotatingMachine wrapper.
• Output graphs are based on the rotatingMachine process output payload fields.
