We are using the ALLNET ALL4000 Ethernet Sensormeter to monitor room temperatures (See: http://www.allnet.de/home-automation.html).

How can I use PRTG with the ALL4000?

There is a custom sensor for PRTG that works with the ALL4000.

This sensor gets values from an ALLNET 4000 (ALLNET 3000 should be compatible) via XML HTTP Interface.

When using the EXE as a custom sensor you must supply three parameters:

ValueDescription
1st parameterIPIP-address of the device
2nd parameter0-15Desired value # (starting at zero)
3rd parameterCURRENT, MIN, or MAXValue Type (The device provides the current, the minimum and the maximum values)

The sensor returns the selected value from the selected sensor. If the sensor is an temperature sensor you must set it as a float value in prtg (important!).

Example: You want to read current value of the first temperature sensor on IP Adress 192.168.0.100

Command line options: 192.168.0.100 0 CURRENT

You can download the binaries from our Google Code project:

The sources are also available:

Thanks to Marc Fuhrmeister for sharing this custom sensor.

Diese Lösung funktioniert nicht mehr, da in der neuesten Gerätegeneration die Sensoren nicht mehr via SNMP erreichbar sind.

Ich werde einen Customscriptsensor programmieren, der die Daten von der XML Webseite des Allnetgerätes abholt und aufbereitet PRTG zur Verfügung stellt.
