Base Energy Object (4Eh)

Object Description
The Base Energy Object acts as an "Energy Supervisor" for CIP Energy implementations. It is responsible for
providing a time base for energy values, provides energy mode services, and can provide aggregation serv-
ices for aggregating energy values up through the various levels of an industrial facility. It also provides a
standard format for reporting energy metering results. The object is energy type independent and allows en-
ergy type specific data and functionality to be integrated into an energy system in a standard way. The Any-
bus CompactCom 40 EtherNet/IP supports one instance of the Base Energy Object. For instance, an electric
power monitor may count metering pulse output transitions of a separate metering device. The count of such
transitions, represented by a Base Energy Object instance, would reflect the energy consumption measured
by the separate metering device.
An instance of the Base Energy Object may exist as a stand-alone instance, or it may exist in conjunction with
an Electrical and/or Non-Electrical Energy Object instance (These objects are not implemented in the Anybus
CompactCom 40 EtherNet/IP). If an instance of any of these objects is implemented in a device, it must be
associated with a Base Energy Object instance in the device.
For this object to be able to access the network, the Energy Reporting Object (E7h) must be implemented in
the host application, see the Anybus CompactCom 40 Software Design Guide for more information.
