Station Utility PC Software Overview and Preparation
3.4.1 Overview
Station Utility PC software consists of four principal functions. Refer to "Station Utility User's
Manual" for details.
(1)
Setting Tool
This function provides remote operations including measurement condition settings (except
for some settings), recording start and stop on the PC for remotely located Portable Power
Monitors.
(2)
Logging Tool
The function acquires the measured data from Portable Power Monitors to the PC via
network.
The measured data in the monitors also can be displayed on the PC.
(3)
Momentary Value Display (SD Viewer ES)
The tool provides the graph displays offline of the data acquired to the PC using the logging
tool or the Portable Power Monitor data recorded to the SD memory card. It can also combine
multiple data items recorded in different periods or provide a concurrent display of multiple
data items recorded in different periods or with different Portable Power Monitors. Detailed
power value changes in interaction with other devices at the operation site can be observed.
(4)
Integration and Summation Tool (Energy Viewer)
The tool provides summations of data acquired to the PC using the logging tool or Portable
Power Monitor data recorded to the SD memory card. The unit of summation periods can be
changed and pre-selected summation items on multiple Portable Power Monitor units can be
displayed in graphs with this tool. It also provides the comparison of the current data with past
summation data. Longer-term (e.g. daily or monthly) power value changes at the operation
site can be observed.
