Logging On to the System

Open the Power Master Unit from the appropriate
directory to display the Master Unit Logon dialog.
For security reasons, only users with a direct
knowledge of the correct User id and Passwords will be
permitted to Log On to the Master Unit software.
The Password is initially set to Elster. This should be
changed as soon as possible to prevent unauthorised
access to the Master Unit. The password may be
changed using the System/Change Password dialog
from the Main Menu bar.
To enter the system a User name with the correct Password must be entered. Three attempts to
match the Password with the User name are allowed before access is denied. If a match is not found,
a message is displayed and the program exits.
Select the User Name and enter the password. The system enters the Master Unit main menu.
The default password is:
User Name
Password
Note: Administrator access is for certifying or building meters only.

Features of the Main Master Unit Window

When the software is first entered, the Main window is displayed. The Window is divided into elements
consisting of three Action Windows and a Status Bar.

Action Windows

There are three action windows,
the Scheme manager, Meter manager
and the Meter list.
The Scheme and Meter manager
function in a similar way and consist of
two panes. The left pane is divided into
a series of folders and sub folders.
These folders represent Scheme
related and meter information.
The right pane consists of objects that
relate to an opened folder.
The Meter list brings together a meter
or number of meters from the Meter
manager and a scheme or a number of
schemes from the Scheme manager to
produce a list of meters and their
associated schemes.
