EFM Emerson ROC provides a configuration section to the Ignition Gateway and this can be seen in the left side menu bar of the Ignition Gateway web UI. 


Once TLP Definitions and EFM Mappings have been configured, the following additional steps are required to get all data available from a ROC into Ignition:

  • Create a device connection
  • Specify the subset of TLP definitions that this specific ROC uses
  • Create TLP Template(s) which define groups of TLPs should be polled as a logical group
  • Create TLP Poll Group(s) which specify the logical parameters associated with a given TLP Template

The configuration options for each of the two tabs - TLP Definitions and EFM Mappings are detailed below. 

The Cirrus Link default TLP Definitions and EFM Mapping files can be used as a starting point for configuring the EFM Emerson ROC module.

TLP Definitions

The first tab contains settings for creating sets of TLP Definitions:

New TLP Definitions can be created by following the 'Create new TLP Definition' link as shown below:

Main Properties

  • Name

    • This is the friendly name of the TLP Definition being created

  • CSV File

    • Click the 'Browse' button to select CSV file for this TLP Definition

EFM Mappings

The EFM Mappings are used for publishing EFM Records representing Events, Alarms, Configuration, and History entries that are polled from a device.

Configuration Mappings

The configuration mapping files are used for building up EFM Configuration Records.  They define which TLPs map to which fields (columns) in an EFM Configuration Record.  Additionally they can provide bit and/or value mappings for the TLP values.  

Review our EFM Emerson ROC Quickstart guide for more details on the content of these configuration mapping files.

The Configuration Mappings tab shows all uploaded Configuration Mapping files.

A new Configuration Mapping can be added by clicking on the "Create New Configuration Mapping..." link.

Main Properties

  • Name

    • This is the friendly name of the Configuration Mapping being created

  • CSV File

    • Click the 'Browse' button to select CSV file for this Configuration Mapping

Periodic Mappings

The periodic mapping files are used for building up EFM Periodic History Records.  They define which TLPs map to which fields (columns) in an EFM Periodic History Record, the logical type of the point type table (meter, station, or input), and an archive type of the value.

Review the EFM Emerson ROC Quickstart for more details on the content of these periodic mapping files.

The Periodic Mappings tab shows all uploaded Periodic Mapping files.

A new Periodic History Mapping can be added by clicking on the "Create New Periodic Mapping..." link.
