  • Page 284 Note that the received data is in Variation 5 (float). The number received for point 1 is 6126489.5, in other words 6126.48 kW. Reading this value is very simple if the default variation (Variation 5) is used. E169701 C-44 Electro Industries/GaugeTech The Leader In Power Monitoring and Smart Grid Solutions...
  • Page 285 The limit for preventing overflow is approximately 2147 MW. Using Variation 2 (16 bit integer) would result in an overflow, since the 6000 kW range does not fit into a 16 bit integer. E169701 C-45 Electro Industries/GaugeTech The Leader In Power Monitoring and Smart Grid Solutions...
