Report Parameters

The Report section in the main configuration window has six tabs:

Intervals tab allows the user to configure the recording interval at which meter data is collected, and the demand interval for which demand readings are calculated. Figure 7 shows the Intervals tab, and Table 3 lists the configuration parameters within the tab.

Types tab allows the user to define the metering data parameters that are to be logged on each recording interval, then reported per the Reporting Schedule. Figure 8 shows the Types tab, and Table 4 lists the configuration parameters within the tab.

Reporting Schedule tab allows the user to configure how often the meter is to send recording interval data to a server. Figure 9 shows the Reporting Schedule tab, and Table 5 lists the configuration parameters within the tab.

Calculations & Format tab allows the user to configure the type of power factor calculation and the display format for leading vs. lagging power factor. Figure 10 shows the Calculations & Format tab, and Table 6 lists the configuration parameters within the tab.

BACnet tab allows the user to configure the BACnet Device interface. Figure 11 shows the BACnet tab, and Table 7 lists the configuration parameters within the tab.

Comms tab allows the user to configure the communications module and change the Meter Utility Password. Figure 12 shows the Comms tab, and Table 8 lists the configuration parameters within the tab.
