-=== Create an Organization === 
- 
-Organizations can have multiple members and contain many projects.  
-A member will see all the organization projects. 
- 
-Most will not need more than a single organization, so you can just use your own enterprise name. 
- 
-In the administration page, click on "Organizations" (or go to your account page). 
-Click on the "Create organization" button and create it. 
- 
-Once the organization is created, click on its link. 
-

- 
-=== Create a Project === 
- 
-Projects are what contains the recorded data. 
-Inside a project, **all BACnet device IDs must be unique**. 
- 
-In your organization page, click on "Create project" and create it. 
- 
-Next, click on the configuration button. 
- 
-{{:suppliers:hvac.io:vigilia:installation:project-config.png|}} 
- 
-This will bring you to a page with the **project-id** and the **logger-key**.  
-You will need both to configure the logger(s).

-===== Loggers ===== +
- +
-Loggers are software able to scan a BACnet network and send the data back to a Vigilia server. +
- +
-The only publicly available logger is Wacnet (min version 1.8). +
- +
-To start logging a network, **begin by running Wacnet**. +
-Then go and configure a few things in the **[[http://localhost:47800/vigilia/configs|Vigilia Configs]]** page : +
- +
-==== Step 1: Connect to a Vigilia server ==== +
- +
-The first thing to configure is a Vigilia API URL. This will tell Wacnet where it should send its data. +
- +
-It should have the following form: +
- +
-<code> +
-http://<vigilia-IP-or-address>/api/v1 +
-</code> +
- +
-If you are using a port other than 80 or 443, you need to include it into the URL: +
- +
-<code> +
-http://<vigilia-IP-or-address:47900>/api/v1 +
-</code> +
-(Where 47900 is your port number) +
- +
-Make sure Wacnet can see the provided URL! +
- +
- +
- +
- +
-{{:suppliers:hvac.io:vigilia:installation:logger-step1.png|}} +
- +
-==== Step 2: Project credentials ==== +
- +
-You have to provide a **project ID** and a **logging key/password**.  +
-Both are available through the project configurations on the Vigilia server. +
- +
-Here's an example : +
-  * Project-id : 5371147be4b0222b740851a2 +
-  * Logging key: asdi34h5ha +
- +
-Make sure Wacnet has access to the project : +
- +
-{{:suppliers:hvac.io:vigilia:installation:logger-step2.png?800}} +
- +
- +
-==== Start Logging ====+
  
-When Wacnet starts, it searches for Vigilia configurations. If it finds some, **it will start logging automatically**.+=== Good to Go ===
  
-To start the logging without restarting Wacnetexpand the details part of the page and click on "Start".+Once your Vigilia server is up and runningyou can follow the steps to [[suppliers:hvac.io:vigilia:recording|record a BACnet network]].

 +===== Troubleshooting =====
 +
 +==== Database Crash ====
 +
 +If you database is becoming quite large (thousands of files in the dbpath), it's possible that your OS is going to refuse opening that much files simultaneously.
 +
 +In Linux, you can change the number of allowed files by editing the file ''/etc/security/limits.conf'' and adding the following lines :
 +
 +<code>
 +tokumx soft nofile 1000000
 +tokumx hard nofile 1000000
 +</code>
