ReportsPlus

ReportsPlus provides you a package of enhanced reports in addition to the standard reports
included in Manager.

ReportsPlus reports are set up and viewed in the same way as standard Manager reports
and can be configured to automatically run on a schedule and optionally send the report
output to one or more email addresses.

Custom reports can be created using Excel template in FactoryTalk EnergyMetrix
software version 2.10.00 with ReportsPlus option.

ReportsPlus reports can be identified by their distinctive icon in the report list.

The additional reports included in ReportsPlus are described below.

Efficiency Report

The Efficiency Report provides information on the ‘energy efficiency’ of part or all of a
process, by using an efficiency formula defined in a rate schedule.

The report calculates average efficiency over the selected date/time range and also
calculates a snapshot of the efficiency at user-selected intervals. Report output is tabular
plus a chart showing efficiency versus time. The chart plots efficiency for each calculation
interval, a rolling average of the efficiency for each calculation interval and the overall
average efficiency.

Examples of Efficiency Reports

Calculating efficiency of a boiler system based on BTU of gas consumed versus steam
produced.

Calculating production efficiency of a batch manufacturing line by calculating tons of
product produced versus energy consumed.

You must have purchased and installed the ReportsPlus option to
use the Efficiency report.
