Powermonitor Data Display And Configuration

This chapter describes the steps necessary to display real–time and logged
data from a Powermonitor, and how to configure the operating parameters of
the device.

Data Display Formats

Following connection to a Powermonitor (as described in Chapter 4) the
system operator can display data from that device by selecting the desired
data screen from the MAIN MENU. These include:

a. REAL–TIME

b. EVENT LOG

c. SNAPSHOT

d. STATUS (incl. Relay Status, Status Inputs, and Setpoint Status)

e. MIN/MAX

Displaying Device Data

To display data from a particular device:

1. Connect with the Powermonitor as described in Chapter 4 (if not

previously performed).

2. Return to the MAIN MENU by pressing <Esc>, select the desired data

screen using the cursor keys, and press <Enter>.

Alternately, the operator can use the shortcut keys to view data screens
directly, rather than using the MAIN MENU. Shortcut key functions are
listed in the HELP line at the bottom of the screen.

The most recent data for the selected device screen should appear almost
immediately.

Important: If the site is accessed via a modem that is not presently
connected, a series of messages will appear at the bottom of the screen
indicating modem connection status. It may take 30 seconds to establish
connection with the site before updated data will appear on the
Powermonitor.
