Monitoring System Components

 

 

 

 

Graph Element

 

Description

 

 

 

 

 

Aggregate Energy Information

 

Displays total energy used by the system component. It accumulates

 

 

data on a daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, and lifetime basis.

 

 

Daily aggregates information collected at the start of the day

 

 

(12:00AM), up to the most recently completed hour.

 

 

Weekly aggregates data starting from the most recent Sunday

 

 

up to the most completed day to date.

 

 

Monthly sums up all information for the current month from day

 

 

1 up to the most completed day to date.

 

 

Yearly sums up all information for the current year from month 1

 

 

up to the most completed month to date.

 

 

Lifetime aggregates all data collected from the very beginning

 

 

the system started.

 

 

Important: Energy aggregation is based on the data collected by

 

 

ComBox. Actual lifetime energy for each device may differ.

Real-Time System Readings

 

Displays real-time information on the system component selected.

 

Data Area

 

This is where the graph is presented. If you hover the mouse pointer

 

 

 

over the data area, an information bubble containing information on the

 

 

object displays.

X-Axis

 

The X-axis label generally represents time. The tick mark labels on the

 

 

 

X-axis change depending on the time Interval Setting selected. For

 

 

example, if the Interval Setting is Hours, then the tick mark labels will

 

 

be each hour of the day starting from 12:00 AM.

Y-Axis

 

The Y-axis label is Energy in watt-hours (Wh). The tick mark labels on

 

 

 

the Y-axis adjusts accordingly. For example, if the watt measurement

 

 

expands to kilowatts, then the labels will appear with a “k”.

Data Series

 

There are two data series. This means that you can display two

 

 

 

different data sets which you can analyze and compare.

 

 

The 1st Data Series (represented in Orange) always pertains to a data

 

 

set or data sets belonging to the system component selected. For

 

 

example, if the system component is Battery, then the 1st Data Series

 

 

could either be Battery Charge or Battery Discharge. For sources like

 

 

Generator, which have power flow in only one direction, there will be

 

 

only “input” energy viewable in the 1st Data Series.

 

 

The 2nd Data Series (represented in Blue) pertains to data sets

 

 

belonging to all the system components. Collectively, the data sets of

 

 

all system components are Load Output, PV Input, Battery Discharge,

 

 

and Battery Charge.

Calendar Controls

 

There are two calendar controls. The 1st Calendar Controls (also in

 

 

 

Orange) is meant for the 1st Data Series. The 2nd Calendar Controls (in

 

 

Blue) is for the 2nd Data Series.

 

 

The controls are the left arrow, right arrow, and the calendar pop up link

 

 

in between the two arrows. When you click the calendar pop-up link, it

 

 

displays a calendar selector application.
