Name Data Collection Hardware
Follow these steps to create or select device names, meter types, and meter tag names for each energy data point. These
names will be used later in the FactoryTalk EnergyMetrix software configuration chapters.
1.
Click the FactoryTalk EnergyMetrix tab on the Energy Data Worksheet.
2.
Enter a device name for each energy data point.
For the Efficient Industries Plant 1 example, the device names for the first six PowerMonitor devices and the data
center are the same as the energy data point names.
For the Efficient Industries Plant 1 example, the PowerMonitor 1000 device named MCC 2 collects two energy data
points, the Gas Main and the Water Main. The CompactLogix device collecting one digital and three analog inputs
is named L2x.
TIP
It is recommended that you name the device with the same name as the energy data point when possible. If a device
collects multiple energy data points, use a name related to the most significant data point or unique location.
