Data Monitoring
Viewing Real-Time Data
Real-time data can be continuously retrieved from the BFM136 submeters,
updated on the screen at the rate you defined in the Instrument Setup, and
recorded to a file. You can view acquired data in a tabular or in a graphical
form as a data trend.
For information on the real-time data monitoring and recording options, see
the PAS Getting Started Guide.
To get data from all submeters in a single window, click on the Multi-meter
View button on the local toolbar.
Any energy and maximum demand registers in the BFM136 submeters can
be read and recorded to files through the PAS Data Monitor.
Retrieving Log Files
Using PAS, you can retrieve the event and data log files from the BFM136
submeters and save them to files on your PC in the MS Access database
format.
Historical data is uploaded on demand any time you need it, or periodically
through the Upload Scheduler that retrieves data automatically on a
predefined schedule, for example, daily, weekly or monthly. If you do not
change the destination database location, new data is added to the same
database so you can have long-term data trends and energy profiles in one
database regardless of the upload schedule you selected.
For information on uploading files and configuring the Upload Scheduler for
the BFM136 submeters, see the PAS Getting Started Guide.
