Preparing Setups
Power Software allows you to prepare setup data for your Multi-Mon off-line without the need to have it connected to your PC.
Select the appropriate site from the list box on the Power Software toolbar, and then select the desired setup group from the
Meter Setup menu. Click on the tab with the setup you want to create or modify, and then fill in the boxes with the desired
configuration data. Click the "Save as..." button to store the data to the site database.
To save your setup to another site database, select it from the file pane. Click OK.
To reuse setups from another site, copy them to your present site database. Click Open, select the desired site database, and
click OK. The opened setup is copied to your site database.
You can also copy all setups from one site database into another site's database. Select a device site from the list box on the
toolbar from which you want to reproduce setups, and then select "Copy to..." from the Meter Setup menu. Select the site
database to which to copy setups, and then click OK.
Downloading Setups
You can update each setup in your Multi-Mon one at time or download all setups together from the site database.
To update a particular setup, check the On-line button on the Power Software toolbar, select a submeter site from the list box on
the toolbar, and then select the desired setup group from the Meter Setup menu. Click on the tab of the setup you want to
download to the device, and then click Send.
To download all setups at once, check the On-line button on the toolbar, select the submeter site from the list box on the toolbar,
and then select Download Setups from the Meter Setup menu.
Device setup settings, excluding the alarm setpoints and data log setup, are shared across all submeters. Though you can
download them to the device using any submeter address, your changes affect all submeters in the device.
The alarm setpoints and data log setup must be downloaded separately to every submeter using its local address. If you wish to
download the same settings to all submeters in your device, prepare the alarm setpoints and/or data log setup for one of the
submeters and store them to its site database, select the submeter site from the list box on the toolbar, and then click Download
to all Submeters on the Meter Setup menu.
