optrix@undisclosed.example.com (optrix) — Mon, 02 Nov 2026 23:09:06 +0000

Create a ModelHost Service To make your AI run live, you'll need a few extra things. The extra scripts in Python, and a binding file that tells ARDI how to connect live data to some of the parameters of your model. Binding File The binding file is a simple JSON file that describes what ARDI data points each of your AI inputs should be connected to, as well as an optional 'map' that describes how values should be translated from numbers to strings.

AI Models

optrix@undisclosed.example.com (optrix) — Sun, 01 Nov 2026 21:58:03 +0000

AI Models You can use your capture data to train AI predictive models that can estimate your resulting values based on a chosen set of inputs. For example, you might estimate the minimum and maximum tolerances of a system based the various different types of product you produce, as well as ambient environmental conditions.

Delivering Grafana Pages via SSL - created

optrix@undisclosed.example.com (optrix) — Thu, 22 Oct 2026 00:29:02 +0000

Delivering Grafana Pages via SSL You can make Grafana pages appear as if they are coming from your ARDI service via HTTPS using Reverse Proxies. In this case, your ARDI server will retrieve the web page from your Grafana server and forward the pages to the user as if they had come from the ARDI server.

Grafana Addon

Function Methods There are several different methods used to turn a user request into output data. The most basic are the Python (used to call a Python function and return its output) and the Redirect (used to call an existing API method elsewhere) methods. The lowercase method name is used in the 'method' property of your

Python-ArgParse (Method) The python-argparse method is a function method that launches a Python script in response to an API request and returns any information that the script writes to the console. While the standard 'python' version of this method passes all of the parameters in a single JSON file, this version instead provides each parameter on the command-line, suitable for reading in with the 'argparse' library.
