change(ps): emit output flow in m³/s

Set UnitPolicy output flow/netFlowRate to m³/s (was m³/h). NOTE: this reverts the output-unit half of e041877 ("keep canonical flow in m³/s, emit output in m³/h"). Committed at user direction during dev-lzm → development integration; flagged for review against the documented PS units decision. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
docs(contract): add worked msg examples for every input + output port

+`manualDemand` outside manual mode), never silently absent. Delta-compression on

+

+The output-coverage rule applies prospectively. Outstanding items for this node:
+
+- [ ] Dedicated `test/basic/output-port0.test.js` exercising **every** key above
+      in both populated and degraded (pre-tick / null) states.
+- [ ] Port-1 line-protocol assertion (field names + tag).
+- [ ] Port-2 `child.register` payload-shape test.
+- [ ] `fn_status_split` degraded/empty-input fan-out test (no `payload:null` to
+      any `ui-chart`) — the failure mode the rule was written for. The structure
+      test in `basic-dashboard-flow.test.js` covers the populated path only.

 Sample values come from a stub instantiation in `wikiGen` &mdash; in a live deployment the volume key is shaped `volume.<variant>.<position>.<childId>` per the standard [Measurement Key Shape](https://gitea.wbd-rd.nl/RnD/EVOLV/wiki/Topic-Conventions#measurement-key-shape).

+> [!NOTE]
+> Two control-state keys carry the live operating mode rather than a measurement:
+> - `mode` &mdash; string, the active control strategy (`levelbased` / `manual` / `flowbased` / `none`). Echoes the most recent `set.mode` input.
+> - `manualDemand` &mdash; number (m³/h) or `null`. The operator outflow setpoint last accepted via `set.demand`; `null` outside `manual` mode.
+
+### Output message examples
+
+The node emits on three ports every tick (`outputUtils.formatMsg`). Port 0 / Port 1
+fire only when at least one field changed (delta-compression); Port 2 fires once at
+startup. `topic` is the station's configured name (here `"PS-Influent-01"`).
+
+```js
+// Port 0 — process data. payload = only the keys that changed this tick.
+msg = {
+  topic: 'PS-Influent-01',
+  payload: {
+    mode: 'levelbased',
+    direction: 'filling',
+    percControl: 25,
+    'level.predicted.atequipment.default': 3.25,   // m
+    'volume.predicted.atequipment.default': 32.5,  // m³
+    timeleft: 400,                                  // s, or null when steady
+    manualDemand: null                              // m³/h, or null outside manual mode
+  }
+};
+
+// Port 1 — InfluxDB telemetry. Same changed fields, wrapped for the InfluxDB node.
+msg = {
+  topic: 'PS-Influent-01',
+  payload: {
+    measurement: 'PS-Influent-01',
+    fields: { percControl: 25, 'volume.predicted.atequipment.default': 32.5 },
+    tags: { id: 'a1b2c3d4.ef567', softwareType: 'pumpingstation', type: 'pumpingStation' },
+    timestamp: '2026-05-29T10:00:00.000Z'           // Date
+  }
+};
+
+// Port 2 — registration handshake, sent once at startup to the upstream parent.
+msg = {
+  topic: 'child.register',
+  payload: 'a1b2c3d4.ef567',                         // this node's id
+  positionVsParent: 'atEquipment',
+  distance: null
+};
+```
+
+> **Child-facing events** are not Port messages &mdash; they fire on
+> `source.measurements.emitter` as `<type>.<variant>.<position>`, e.g. event
+> `volume.predicted.atequipment` with payload `{ value: 32.5, unit: 'm3', timestamp }`.

znetsixe	fc6491dc23	change(ps): emit output flow in m³/s Set UnitPolicy output flow/netFlowRate to m³/s (was m³/h). NOTE: this reverts the output-unit half of `e041877` ("keep canonical flow in m³/s, emit output in m³/h"). Committed at user direction during dev-lzm → development integration; flagged for review against the documented PS units decision.

Rene De Ren	2fb083da63	docs(contract): add worked msg examples for every input + output port Reference-Contracts.md now carries a concrete `msg = { topic, payload, ... }` example for each of the 7 input topics (plus the built-in query.units) and for all three output ports (Port 0 process, Port 1 InfluxDB, Port 2 registration), plus the emitter-event shape. Shapes verified against commandRegistry unit normalisation and the process/influxdb formatters. Examples sit outside the AUTOGEN markers so `npm run wiki:all` stays a no-op on them.

Rene De Ren	4889fdaaf0	docs(contract): close output-contract gaps — mode/manualDemand, Port-2 topic, output manifest - wiki/Reference-Contracts.md: regenerate data-model (npm run wiki:all) so the two live getOutput() keys `mode` and `manualDemand` are documented; refresh stale sample values; bump code-ref badge -> a83a85e; add human note describing the two control-state keys. - CONTRACT.md: fix Port-2 outgoing topic registerChild -> child.register (registerChild is the deprecated input alias, not what the node emits). - test/_output-manifest.md: add the mandatory output manifest (Port 0/1/2 + emitter events + the 15-way fn_status_split fan-out) with honest coverage gaps. - test/integration/basic-dashboard-flow.test.js: fix stale fan-out count 14->15 (output 14 = percControl chart added upstream); assert out[14].

znetsixe	a83a85e958	fix(ps): persist stopLevel/holdLevel as numbers across editor save Node-RED's auto-form-binding writes <input type="number"> values into the node object as strings. The editor's setNumberField helper used strict Number.isFinite(val) which rejects "0.5" and blanked the input on reopen, so users saw their stopLevel/holdLevel values disappear after clicking Done. - oneditsave: explicitly parseFloat stopLevel, holdLevel, and deadZoneKeepAlivePercent so they land in the node as numbers (matches the treatment of startLevel/maxLevel). - oneditprepare: parseFloat node.holdLevel / node.deadZoneKeepAlivePercent before the Number.isFinite check so existing string-typed flows still render their saved values. - index.js setNumberField: defensively coerce stringy numbers so this gotcha can't bite a future field. Verified end-to-end in headless Chromium: type new values, click Done, reopen — values persist and the stopLevel/holdLevel marker lines render at the correct x in the level-based mode preview.

znetsixe	e041877ae4	fix(ps): keep canonical flow in m³/s, emit output in m³/h Reverts the canonical half of `8216480` (which set BOTH canonical and output to m³/h) back to the platform-wide m³/s convention. Canonical m³/s is what every cross-node consumer assumes — MGC percent→flow demand interpolation, the volume integrator (flow × dt), and physics-sanity balances. Changing the canonical basis to m³/h silently scaled those by 3600×. Output flow / netFlowRate stay m³/h so telemetry and dashboard series remain on the same axis as the rest of the pump group (verified slice #47). The m³/s→m³/h conversion now happens at the output boundary only, never on the internal integrator basis. No smoothing/hysteresis added for the PS→MGC demand hunting: per design review that belongs in a dedicated intermediate node (e.g. a PID), not in the pumpingStation or machineGroupControl control path.

znetsixe	8216480950	change(ps): emit flow in m³/h (canonical + output) Switch pumpingStation flow unit from m³/s to m³/h for canonical and output so telemetry/dashboard series land on the same axis as the rest of the group. NOTE: diverges from the platform-wide m³/s canonical convention — flagged for review. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-05-27 16:09:27 +02:00
znetsixe	dfaa0c3ae8	feat(pumpingstation): warn when control engages with no machine group registered A station engaged above startLevel computes a real demand, but if no machine group is registered (e.g. the Port 2 parent↔group registration was dropped by a partial redeploy) the demand is silently forwarded nowhere and the pumps never react — invisible to the operator. levelBased now warns once when engaged with an empty machineGroups map (throttled via host._warnedNoMachineGroup, re-arms when a group reappears); manual.forwardDemand warns when neither a group nor a direct machine is registered.

znetsixe	6e727d929b	fix(pumpingstation): replay child measurement value on subscribe A measurement child that already holds a value when the pumpingStation registers it (e.g. a once:true inject that fired during startup before the parent subscribed) was never surfaced — the emitter only delivers future updates. _subscribeMeasurement now seeds from the child's current sample via getLaggedSample(0), so late subscribers pick up present state. This is what makes a measured upstream inflow register as inflow on a clean startup. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-05-27 09:45:44 +02:00
