In some cases, special features and more complex structures are required. A couple of advanced feature items are documented below.

User Configured Cavity Name

The standard way of naming cavities, or in the case of a fryer vat is by the order in which the data is received or by numerical suffix.  In the case of a three-vat fryer battery, it may be desired to name the vats "Left", "Center", "Right" instead of "1", "2", "3".  In this case the "Vat Name" would be a user input in a configuration screen on each fryer controller.  This would be treated as nameplate information and Open Kitchen would need to add special processing code to map the names of the fryer vat for display.

Derived Telemetry Data

Derived data is where there is a desire to report a reading in Open Kitchen requires Open Kitchen to do a calculation requiring multiple data items.  An example might be gas consumption.  The equipment cannot report gas consumption directly but can report the time that the gas burner is on, and the flow rate and nozzle size.  Open Kitchen would take the nameplate data (nozzle size) and telemetry data (flow rate and time) and use these to perform a gas consumption or energy usage calculation.
