4.7 PEL Reports

Several predefined report templates are available for you to use. You can choose a report template either before or after a
recording. You can also create your own custom templates.
A report is created by performing the following steps
1. Download recorded data from the instrument.
2. Open the downloaded data.
3. Select Create DataView Report from the File menu or by selecting the associated Toolbar button. The Select
Data to Export dialog box will be displayed.
4. Specify the time period of the recording that is to be used in the report and select OK. After the database is
generated, the Create Report from Template dialog box will be displayed.
5. Select the desired report template (Basic is a simplified report and Monitoring is a detailed report containing
many worksheets). Once the template is selected, select the OK button.
At the bottom of the report screen is a series of tabs used to select the desired worksheet to view.

4.7.1 Specifying the Default Report Template

The previous example required that you select the template from the Create Report from Template dialog box. You can
also specify a default template that should be used to automatically generate the report. Doing so will eliminate step 5
above.
To specify the default template, perform the following:
1. Select the Select Report option from the Tools menu. The Templates dialog box will be displayed.
2. Select the template to be used as the default.
3. Click on the Select button. An asterisk will be displayed next to the name of the default template.
You can select any of the listed templates as the default.
You can remove the selection of a default template (and be asked to select a template each time you create a report) by
clicking on the Reset button.
4.8 Power & Energy Logger (PEL) Android App
Another way to connect to a PEL instrument is through the Power & Energy Logger (PEL) Android app. This app, which can
be downloaded free from the Google Play Store (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aemc.pel&hl=en)
enables you to work with a PEL instrument from an Android mobile device. Android is a platform for "touch screen" mobile
devices such as tablets and smartphones. Introduced in 2007, Android has grown to become the most popular mobile
operating system in the world, with over one billion devices sold globally.
The PEL app connects to the PEL via Bluetooth. And if the PEL is connected to a LAN network, you can also communicate
with the instrument over Wi-Fi.
