(Software) Alarm Configuration


TIP: You can open Alarm Configuration from the SETTINGS > Configuration Tools page in Web
Applications or from Management Console > Tools > Web Tools.

Use Alarm Configuration to set up software based alarms in PME. For software based alarms, the
alarm conditions are defined and monitored in the software instead of on the device. PME provides
Alarm Templates to simplify the configuration of software based alarms. Software based alarms
can be defined for real-time data or for logged data.

Real-time Alarms
These Alarms are based on real-time data coming from monitoring devices. Reliable communication
links to the devices are required for these Alarms to function correctly. Use real-time Alarms for
alarming on power system operational parameters such as currents and voltages.

The following real-time Alarm Templates are available:

See Real-time Alarms UI for information on Real-time Alarms configuration.

Logged Data Alarms


These Alarms are based on data that has been logged to the database. Logging of the required data
must be configured and data logs must be in the database for these Alarms to function correctly.
Use logged data Alarms for alarming on consumption type parameters, such as energy or WAGES.

PME provides two types of logged data Alarms, Fixed Setpoint Alarms and Smart Setpoint Alarms:

Fixed Setpoint Alarms


Fixed Setpoint Alarms use pre-defined, fixed threshold values for the Active and Inactive
conditions. For example, you can configure an Over Demand Alarm that goes Active when the
Demand exceeds 800 kW, and goes Inactive when the Demand falls below 600 kW. The following
Fixed Setpoint Alarm templates are available:

Template Notes
Set up Alarms for over or under demand. Demand
data logs are required for this Alarm. Alarms

Set up Alarms for any logged digital measurement in
Datalog Digital Setpoint your system. Data logs for the measurement are
required for this Alarm.

See Logged Data Alarms UI (Fixed Setpoint) for information on fixed setpoint logged data Alarm
configuration.

Smart Setpoint Alarms


Smart Setpoint Alarms use threshold values for Active and Inactive conditions that are based on
data of the monitored input measurement itself. For example, you can configure an Over Demand
Alarm that goes Active when the Demand is the "Highest Value in last 30 days", or when the value
is "Abnormally High for the day of the week". The following Smart historical Alarm Templates are
available:

configuration.

Alarm Configuration considerations


Take the following into account when using the Alarm Configuration application:

l Configuring many Alarm Rules with short update intervals can affect overall system per-
formance.

l Alarm state is not evaluated if a device is disabled in Management Console. For example, a
communication loss is not triggered ON or OFF for a disabled device. Activities like main-
tenance on a meter can be done without the need to change the Alarm Rule.

l Communication Loss Alarms are only applied to physical devices. Any logical devices or down-
stream devices are removed from the Alarm Rule.

l The Alarm Rule name must be unique in the system. That means you cannot have two Alarm
Rules defined with the same name.

l The Alarm Name must be unique for a source. That means you cannot enable two Alarms with
the same Alarm Name for the same source.

Using the Setpoint Calculator


Use the Setpoint Calculator to calculate values for the Active and Inactive Alarm conditions.

1. Click Calculate Values in the Add Alarm Rule - Details window for a new Alarm Rule, or
the Details tab in the Edit Alarm Rule window for an existing Alarm Rule. This opens Setpoint
Calculator.

2. In Setpoint Calculator, enter a baseline value for the measurement you want to monitor in the
Baseline entry field.

For example, for an Over Voltage alarm, assume you enter a baseline value of 480.

3. Enter a percentage value in the On Setpoint entry field to calculate when the alarm is set ON.

Using the voltage baseline of 480, if you enter a 105 as the percentage value for On
Setpoint, the calculated value is 504, which displays below the entry field.

Initially, the On Setpoint and Off Setpoint entry fields are linked. That is, the value you enter
in On Setpoint is automatically duplicated in the Off Setpoint entry field.

4. To set a different value for Off Setpoint , click the link button to disable the linking of the
entry fields, and then enter a percentage value in the Off Setpoint entry field.

The off setpoint value is calculated and displays below the entry field. For example, using the
voltage baseline of 480, if you enter 95 as the percentage value for Off Setpoint, the
calculated value is 456, which displays below the entry field.

5. Click Apply to add your setpoint values to the respective Active Condition and Inactive
Condition fields, or click Cancel to discard your entries and to close the Setpoint Calculator.

Schedules
Use Schedules to enable or disable Alarm Rules based on the time of day and the day of the week.
For example, you can set up an Over Demand Alarm with certain threshold conditions for
weekdays, and another Over Demand Alarm with different threshold conditions for weekends.
The following rules apply to Schedules:

l Schedules are applied in the timezone of each source. If an Alarm Rule has sources from dif-
ferent timezones, then it is possible for a Schedule to be active for some sources, and inactive
for other sources at the same time.

l If an Alarm is in the Active State when a Schedule transitions to inactive, then the Alarm is deac-
tivated.

l Real-time measurement Alarms are only evaluated when the schedule is active.

l Historical measurement Alarms are only evaluated against data that was logged when the
Schedule was active.

NOTE: A historical data log timestamp marks the end of the logging interval. For example, a
data log with a 15 minute logging interval and timestamp of 17:00 represents data for the time
interval of 16:45 - 17:00.

Adding a new Alarm View


Add new Alarm Views to access certain types of Alarms, Incidents, or Events. For example, create
Views to only see unacknowledged Alarms, high priority Alarms, or power quality Incidents. You
can also create Views that only include certain sources, and so eliminate information you are not
interested in.
To add a completely new Alarm View:

1. In the Alarm Viewer, open the View Library and navigate to the folder where you want to create
the View.

(Optional) Add a new folder by clicking Add Folder at the bottom of the Library panel, or
by clicking Add Folder in the Options menu at the top of the Library.

NOTE: The System Views folder is read-only. You cannot add folders or Alarm Views to the
System Views folder.

2. In the View Library, at the bottom of the panel, click Add View , or click Add View in the
Options menu at the top of the Library. This creates a new View and opens View Settings.

set access permissions, and select the View Type.

4. Adjust the filter settings for Priority, State, Sources, and Categories to customize the View if
necessary.

NOTE: Not all of these filters are available for all View Types.

5. Save the View.

To add a copy of an existing Alarm View:

1. In the Alarm Viewer, open the View Library and navigate to the View you want to copy.

2. Right-click the View name or click Options for this View, and select Duplicate to create a
copy in the same folder. Select Copy To to create a copy in a different folder.

for this View, and select Edit to open View Settings. You can also open View Settings by
double-clicking the View name. Change the View name, and adjust the filter settings for Pri-
ority, State, Sources, and Categories to customize the View if necessary.

NOTE: Not all of these filters are available for all View types.

4. Save the View.

NOTE: To add a copy of a System View, use Copy To to create a copy in a different location. You
can also open the System View for Edit and then click Save as New in the View Settings to create
a copy in View Library > Home. You cannot use Duplicate because the System Views folder is

Configuring Devices diagrams


The Devices diagrams display a device type specific diagram for each device that is configured in
the system. Devices diagrams are created automatically. All you need to do is add a new device to
the Management Console, wait a short period of time for the system to generate the diagram and
update the Devices list, and then restart the Diagrams application.

The device type specific diagrams are the same as the ones used in the default Vista network
diagram.

Configuring a Network diagram


Before you can view the Network Diagram in the Diagrams application, you must generate a
network diagram (network.dgm) in Vista. The Diagrams application uses the network diagram
generated in Vista for display in the browser. The network diagram is automatically added to the
Diagram Library, all you need to do is generate the network diagram in Vista, save it in the default
location, and then restart the Diagrams application.

Note that the Vista component is installed with Power Monitoring Expert on a primary server or
Engineering Client.
To generate a default network diagram in Vista:

1. Start Vista.

2. Click File > Generate network diagram.

3. Click File > Save.

Set default options for a diagram


The default diagram is the one that is displayed when you first open Diagrams. You can set a
diagram to be your own personal default, or the default for the system.

NOTE: For each user, Set as my default supersedes Set as system default. For example, if a
user with supervisor level access sets a diagram as the system default diagram, and another user
sets a different diagram as their default diagram, that user's default diagram takes priority over the
system default diagram, but only for them.

To set the default options for a diagram:

1. In Diagrams, open the Diagram Library and navigate to the diagram you want to set as default.

2. Right-click the diagram name or click Options for this diagram, and select Set as default to
open the Configure Default Item dialog.

Hierarchy Manager
Depending on the number of devices you are currently monitoring, organizing the data coming from
those devices can be a difficult task. Hierarchy Manager allows you to organize the devices in
EcoStruxure™ Power Monitoring Expert into recognizable views by defining their relationships as
parts of a system model. Once the model has been created, energy data associated with the
hierarchy can be grouped, aggregated, and used by other components of Power Monitoring Expert.

The Hierarchy Manager views are intended to represent the real world electrical, physical, and
business characteristics of your organization. The items contained in a view, and how those items
relate to each other are specified using a template approach. There are several example templates
included in the product to help you create the views applicable to your organization. One of these
templates is configured when Power Monitoring Expert is first installed.

Open the Hierarchy Manager application from the Configuration Tools section on the Settings page
in the Web Applications banner. You can also open Hierarchy Manager from the Tools menu in the
Management Console.
The following topics provide specific information regarding the features and use of the Hierarchy
Manager application:

l Hierarchy templates
Nodes

Node properties

Common elements of hierarchy templates

l Creating a hierarchy

l Creating an apportioned meter

l Creating a virtual meter

l Dynamic hierarchy

l Meter apportionment

l Virtual meter

l Using hierarchies in other applications

After you have configured the views of the hierarchy structure, you can use them in different areas
of Power Monitoring Expert.

NOTE: Before using Hierarchy Manager, ensure that devices, logical devices, or managed circuits
have been added to Power Monitoring Expert through the Management Console component.

Hierarchy templates
When the Hierarchy Manager application opens, everything displayed in the application is based on
the hierarchy template defined in the system. This template defines the parameters of the model. If
you were to describe the physical layout of a building for example, you could describe the name of

Page 64 7EN02-0409-00
Web Applications Guide Configuring

the building, each floor of the building, and the rooms or areas that each floor contains. The
hierarchy template for a building's physical layout does the same thing, using Nodes to represent
the different aspects of the model.

Note that a Virtual Meter Node is included in the hierarchy template. You can define virtual meters
without associating them with a hierarchy, or you can include virtual meters in a hierarchy the same
way that you include devices. You can select virtual meters for many of the reports in the Reports
application.

Each Node contains instances of that particular Node type, which in turn are defined by a set of
properties. These properties not only define the different parts of the model, they also define the
relationships that exist between the different Nodes. This is useful when aggregating the device
data used in other parts of Power Monitoring Expert.

Once the model has been created, the devices that are collecting data can be associated with the
different levels of the hierarchy that are defined in the template.

Nodes
A Node can be described as the building block of a hierarchy. Nodes are used to model a customer
system and can represent:

l Electrical equipment

l Logical concepts

l Physical locations

l Other real-world objects

Nodes are displayed in Hierarchy Manager as a set of tabs. Each tab is labeled with the name of the
part of the model it represents. Each Node displays a number of Node instances in a grid format. In
Hierarchy Manager, a Node can be described as the type of object required to model a system,
while Node instances can be thought of as the reference to the real-world objects in that system.
For example, if 'Car' is used as an example of a Node, then 'my Corvette' could describe an
instance of the Car Node.

A hierarchy that represents the physical layout of a company's industrial site might have a Site
Node, a Building Node, and an Areas Node. Each of those Nodes can contain instances of that
Node type. Under the Building Node for example, you could list the different buildings located in a
particular site. The Properties of each of these Nodes are specified by the user.

Each Node instance is represented in the system as a set of properties that define the
characteristics of that instance. These properties can be further broken down into Attributes and
References.

Node properties
Attributes and References can be used to describe the properties of a Node, and their relationships
to other Nodes. These properties provide the context that helps to describe the different parts of the

7EN02-0409-00 Page 65
Configuring Web Applications Guide

model. For example, a Node called Floors might contain attributes such as floor number, and
references such as the association between the Floors Node and the Building Node, or the
association between Floors and Areas.

Attributes
The Attributes of a Node describe the properties of that Node, such as its name and characteristics.
These Attributes could include the breaker rating of an electrical panel or contact information of a
tenant. For example, a Node called Buildings that is part of a physical layout hierarchy could have
an Attribute such as the building name.

Attributes are configurable by entering information into an Attribute field. To add Attribute content to
a new Node instance, select a tab and click Add. To edit existing Attribute content, double-click a
Node instance, or highlight it and click Edit. When the Properties dialog opens, select an attribute
field by clicking in the applicable field and entering the necessary information. Click OK when you
finish specifying all of the necessary attributes for the Node.

References
References describe how a Node in a hierarchy is associated with other Nodes. For example, in a
hierarchy that describes the physical layout of a company's building, a Node called Floor could have
a reference that describes its association with a Node called Areas. These references indicate
which offices are part of each floor. In this example, since a Floor can contain many offices, it is
considered a one-to-many association. Since an office can only be associated with a single floor, it
is considered a one-to-one association. By making these connections between the Nodes, the
hierarchy structure of the model begins to take shape.

Reference fields require clicking Add, Edit, or Delete. To add reference content to a Node instance,
click Add for the reference, then select the appropriate entry from the list that appears. You can also
enter dynamic hierarchy time ranges in this section.

To edit existing reference content, double-click the entry in the grid, or highlight it and click Edit, and
then make the necessary changes. In most cases, this change would involve either the start or end
dates of the particular reference.

To delete existing reference content, select an entry from the applicable reference type and click
Delete.

NOTE: The Delete button should not be used to end an association with a particular Node
instance. In situtations where a relationship between two Node instances ends after a certain
date, the ideal solution is to edit the references and change the To field to a specific end date that
defines the time range for the relationship. See Creating a hierarchy for more information.

Common elements of hierarchy templates


The components that make up Hierarchy Manager can appear differently depending on the hierarchy
template installed in the system. Although these different hierarchy templates can have different tab
and property names, and the relationships between the Nodes differ, the method used to modify the
hierarchy is similar for most templates. This section provides information regarding the basic steps
to modifying a hierarchy, regardless of the template used.

Page 66 7EN02-0409-00
Web Applications Guide Configuring

Hierarchy Manager has a series of tabs across the top of the page. These tabs are the
representation of the Nodes. Clicking on any of these tabs displays the instances of the Node types
in a grid format.

The process involved with creating an instance of a Node type is the same for most hierarchy
templates. To create a new instance, select the applicable tab and click Add. The Properties
window opens, containing fields that represent the properties for that particular Node instance. Any
required fields are identified with a Required message. Click in the attribute fields and enter the
necessary information. Reference fields are selected from a grid, and can also have a time
dimension associated with them (see Dynamic hierarchy for additional information). Click Add to
open the Select dialog and select the applicable item from the grid. If there are no items to choose
from, you might need to create a new instance for that Node type.

To edit an instance of a Node type, click the applicable tab, double-click an instance in the grid, or
select it and click Edit. Make the changes to the applicable fields in the Properties dialog and click
OK.

To delete an existing instance of a Node type, select the applicable tab, select an instance on that
tab and click Delete. After you confirm the delete action, the instance disappears from the grid, and
any reference information regarding the deleted instance is removed from all affected Node
instances.

Tree View
Displaying the views of a template is also similar for most template types. You can see the view of
a hierarchy by clicking the Show Views link. The view shows the different levels of the hierarchy,
and the date range for each entry of the hierarchy.

Date Range: Use the To and From fields to select the date range to display the hierarchy.

Available Views: Use this section to switch between different views if there is more than one view
available. The available views are determined by the hierarchy template. Click Update when you
change the date range, the scale, or view.

Scale: Select Days or Months to provide the appropriate scale to the hierarchy view.

Beside each hierarchy level is a bar that indicates when in the date range the Node was part of the
hierarchy. If the bar has a rounded edge, the Node reference has an end date within the date range.
If the bar has a square edge, the Node reference continues beyond the date range.

You can click the pencil (edit) icon to the left of the bars to open and edit the properties for the
related item.

If you do not see a node in the hierarchy view, make sure the date range includes the date that Node
was part of the hierarchy. You can view the date range for a hierarchy entry by hovering the pointer
on it.

Creating a hierarchy
The following example uses the default hierarchy template (with Site, Buildings, and Areas nodes)
to illustrate the basic functionality of Hierarchy Manager.

7EN02-0409-00 Page 67
Configuring Web Applications Guide

In this scenario, you are the facility manager for Faber College. The college includes three buildings,
two of which have already been added to Hierarchy Manager. Building Three has just been
completed, and you must add this building information into Hierarchy Manager. This involves
creating a new building and areas entries, and adding devices to the areas, all beginning on a
specific date.

At the same time, renovations to Building Two have just been completed which include the
replacement of several meters. In Hierarchy Manager, you must swap the old devices with the new
by changing the end date for the existing devices to the day they were removed. New devices must
be associated with their correct areas and their start dates must correspond to the date they were
installed.

Open Hierarchy Manager

end dates for the devices you are replacing to the date they are removed. Then assign new devices
to the areas with their start dates set to the day the devices are installed.

The devices that you are replacing are associated with Room 2B and 2C in Building Two.
When this task is complete:

l The entry for each device is grayed-out and italicized in the hierarchy if the End Date is the cur-
rent date or earlier.

l Any reports that include these areas only includes data collected by these devices up to this
new end date.

NOTE: Date ranges extend from start of day to start of day. This means that the end date does not
include data collected for that day.

1. Open Hierarchy Manager and click the Areas tab.

2. Double-click Room 2B in the grid, or select it and click Edit to open the Properties for Room
2B dialog.

3. Double-click Faber.Bldg2B in the Device grid, or select it and click Edit to open the Edit
Device References dialog.

4. Click the To field, or click the calendar icon beside it. Select the end date of March 15 in the
calendar.

When you select the date, the calendar closes.

5. Confirm that the date has changed in the End Date column under Device, then click OK.

You can now associate the new device with this area. For the purposes of this example the
new device has already been added to the system through Management Console.

6. Click Add above the Device grid to open the Add Device References dialog.

7. Select the new device, Faber.Bld2BN.

8. Click the From field, or click the calendar icon beside it. Select the start date of March 15 in
the calendar.

When you select the date, the calendar closes.

9. Confirm that the date has changed in the Start Date column under Device, then click OK.

10. Perform the same steps for Room 2C.

When you complete these tasks, any reports that include these areas with a date range that
extends beyond the device start date includes data collected by these new devices as of their start
date. The reports do not include any data for the removed devices as of their end date.

Creating an apportioned meter


You can create an apportioned meter when you add a device to a hierarchy node by changing the
value in the Percentage field in the Add Device References dialog. The default value is 100 percent.
The percentage can be a negative, positive, or integer value. The percentage field is restricted to 15
characters. Time intervals for apportioned meters function in the same way as devices. See Meter
apportionment for more information.

Page 74 7EN02-0409-00
Web Applications Guide Configuring

NOTE: You cannot edit the percentage for an apportioned device after you set it. To change the
percentage, you need to change the end date and add the device with a new start date and updated
apportionment percentage, or delete it from the hierarchy and add it again as new entry with the
required percentage.

To create an apportioned meter:

1. Select the device you want to apportion in the Add Device References dialog.

2. Change the value in the Percentage field.

3. If required, click the From or To fields to change the start and end dates for the apportioned
meter.

4. Click OK.

The following image shows that Faber.Bldg2A has an apportioned value of 75 percent as of March
15.

Creating a virtual meter


The Virtual Meter tab includes Add, Edit, and Delete controls above a data grid showing any
previously created virtual meters.

7EN02-0409-00 Page 75
Configuring Web Applications Guide

Add: Selecting Add opens the Properties dialog. Type a name for the virtual meter and click Add in
the Devices area to select devices to attach to it. You can attach a device, a previously created
virtual meter, or an apportioned meter in the same way you attach a device to a hierarchy node.

Time intervals of the attached devices operate in the same manner as time intervals on meters
attached to hierarchy nodes.

Edit: Editing a virtual meter is like editing the relationship between a hierarchy node and a device.
You can add, edit, or delete virtual meters but you need to ensure that your changes respect time
intervals.

For example, if you are replacing a meter, you need to update the End Date for it and you need to
specify an appropriate Start Date for the new meter. Do not delete the original meter as this
removes the meter historically.

Delete: You can delete a virtual meter but you need to take care when doing so. When you delete a
virtual meter, the relationships between all hierarchy nodes and the virtual meter are removed.

Page 76 7EN02-0409-00
Web Applications Guide Configuring

Adding a virtual meter to a hierarchy node


After you create a virtual meter, it appears in device lists with the other devices. You can attach a
virtual meter to a hierarchy node in the same way as the other devices.

See Virtual meter for more information.

Dynamic hierarchy
Another feature of Hierarchy Manager is the ability to assign devices or Node instances for discrete
units of time. Instead of devices existing in either an assigned or unassigned state independent of
time, a device can be assigned to one Node instance for a specific length of time, then assigned to
another instance for another length of time.

With this time dimension, Hierarchy Manager can be used by organizations that require an ever-
changing representation of their system. If one tenant moves out and another moves in, that change
can be reflected in the hierarchy. Energy and power usage can be tracked for each tenant over time,
and billing information can be collected, aggregated, and displayed in a report.

NOTE: If your hierarchy does not change over time you do not need to set the date ranges for the
various devices or Node instances. In Power Monitoring Expert, these static hierarchies exist from
the date when the system was first commissioned (system start), to the farthest date the system
recognizes (end of time).

Replacing or reconfiguring a device can also be captured in a hierarchy. If a device requires


replacement or reconfiguring, it can be unassigned from an instance on a specific date, and the new
or reconfigured device assigned to the same instance. The entry for the unassigned device is
grayed-out and italicized in the hierarchy if the End Date is the current date or earlier.

Dynamic hierarchies are established when you create or edit the properties of a Node instance that
is associated with a device. For example, if Customer A is set to lease a rack from a data center,
you can assign the racks and circuits to that customer on a specific date. When tenant A's lease
expires, you can remove the assignment of the racks and circuits on the expiration date and
reallocate them to tenant B.

See Creating a hierarchy for details on how to use the dynamic hierarchies function.

Meter apportionment
Meter apportionment allows you to assign a percentage of a device that has been assigned to an
area. For example, if a common area is monitored by a single meter but shared by two tenants, for
billing purposes you might want to allocate only a portion of the meter to each tenant. If tenant 1
uses 60% of the common area and tenant 2 uses 40%, you can attach 60% of a meter's reading to
the tenant 1 area node and the other 40% to the tenant 2 area node.

See Creating an apportioned meter for more information.

7EN02-0409-00 Page 77
Configuring Web Applications Guide

Virtual meter
A virtual meter allows you to aggregate measurements from any combination of devices,
apportioned meters, or other virtual meters available in Hierarchy Manager. The newly created
virtual meter can be assigned to a node in Hierarchy Manager just like any other device, and
appears in dialogs that have a Views selection. You can even create an apportioned meter from a
virtual meter.
Examples:

l Assume that there are several feeder meters connected to the main power bus and you want to
calculate the total power usage. You can create a virtual meter that includes each of the feeder
meters. Then you can choose one of the reports supporting virtual meters to generate a report
showing the total power usage for the virtual meter.

l Assume that there is a large area monitored by a single meter (M1). Within that area is a single
room that is monitored by a separate meter (M2). Tenant 1 is using the small room and Tenant 2
is using the remaining area. To calculate Tenant 2's power usage, the readings from M2 must
be subtracted from the readings of M1. This can be accomplished by assigning M1 and an
apportioned meter of M2 with an allocation of -100%, removing M2's readings from Tenant 2's
power usage calculation.

The alternative is to create a virtual meter. For example, create a new virtual meter Tenant_2_
Net_Meter, and assign the two devices, M1 and M2 (-100%), to the virtual meter. The virtual
meter is assigned to Tenant 2's node. If at some time in the future a new meter is added, you
can edit the virtual meter to include the new meter.

See Creating a virtual meter for more information.

Using hierarchies in other applications


You can use hierarchies in the following Power Monitoring Expert (PME) applications:

l Dashboards

l Reports

l Trends

In the Dashboards application, you can use hierarchies in the gadget data series selector to select
data from a source based on its location in the hierarchy. Selecting a hierarchy View allows you to
group device data at different aggregation points in the hierarchy. For example, it is possible to
create a dashboard that depicts the energy usage of a single floor in a building as a single data
series even though there are multiple meters monitoring different circuits.

You can also use hierarchies in several of the reports available in the Reports application. You can
use the source selector for these reports to select items from the hierarchy to include in the report.
As in the Dashboards application, a hierarchy View groups device data at different aggregation
points, which are then displayed in a report. In addition to the default reports, hierarchies can also be
used in custom reports that have been created for use in different solutions.

You can use hierarchies in the Trends application to select data from a source based on its location
in the hierarchy.

Configuring Web Applications Guide

Configuring the Energy Modeling report


Before you can use the modeling report, you must first create a model for your facility or process
with the Create Model Report. This model is then used in the Use Model Report. You only use the
Create Model report during configuration. After the model has been created, you do not need to run
this report again, unless you want to create a new model.
To create a model and use the Energy Modeling report:

1. Run the Create Model report with an initial set of parameters and analyze the results. Select
No for the Save Model Configuration input parameter.

TIP: Consider choosing a reporting period with normal consumption behavior to create your
model. For example, a good period could be "Last Year".

2. Based on the results, define sub-models and exception periods, if applicable.

3. Re-run the Create Model report using sub-models, exception periods, and modified input para-
meters and analyze the results.

4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until you are satisfied with the accuracy of the model.

5. Run the Create Model report one more time, select Yes for the Save Model Configuration
and enter a meaningful model name. This saves your model to the database.

6. Run the Use Model report with the model you created. Ensure that the sub-models and excep-
tion periods are correctly defined for the reporting period.

7. (Optional) Setup a subscription to run the Use Model report on a regular basis. Select Yes for
the Insert Date input parameter. This saves the model output data to the database. You can
use this data in the Trends and Dashboards applications.

Defining a sub-model
Sub-models are used to improve the accuracy of the overall model by recognizing time intervals or
operating conditions with different consumption characteristics. For example, using a sub-model
that differentiates between weekdays and weekend days can be more accurate for processes that
are influenced by a workweek pattern, than using a single model for all days. Which sub-model
works best depends on the nature of the facility or process.

Sub-models are defined with the Modeling Configuration tool in the Settings > Configuration
Tools area of the Web Applications. Use one of the pre-defined sub-models, or create your own.
To define a sub-model:

1. In Modeling Configuration, select the Sub-Models tab.

2. Click Insert in the top right corner of the window to switch to insert mode.

3. Enter a Sub-Model Name, select a Minimum Aggregation Interval, and enter a Desired
Label, and Condition in the input boxes at the top of the main display grid.

The Condition must be a valid SQL query statement.

Page 102 7EN02-0409-00


Web Applications Guide Configuring

4. Click Insert to the right of the input boxes to insert the new sub-model definition. The defin-
ition is moved to the bottom of the main display grid, below any pre-existing sub-model defin-
itions.

5. Click Search in the top right corner of the window to switch back to search mode.

6. (Optional) To edit an existing definition, click Edit to the right of the definition in the display
grid, or click any of the fields of the definition in the grid. To update the definition, after editing
it, click Update , to cancel click Cancel . To delete a sub-model definition, click Delete
.

Defining exception periods


Exception periods are special time intervals, such as holidays, with unpredictable consumption
behavior that is different from the rest of the time period. Exception periods can be defined down to a
specific time interval for a specific source and measurement.

You can either choose to model these exception periods separately, which means they will become
a sub-model, or you can choose to exclude them from the model completely.

Exception periods override sub-model definitions if they cover the same time period. For example,
you could define a holiday, a day your facility was in shutdown, or a day when you performed
system tests, as an exception period. If that day was a weekend day and you are using a sub-model
to differentiate between weekdays and weekend days, then the exception period overrides the sub-
model, which means that special day will be modeled differently than a regular weekend day.

Exception periods are defined with the Modeling Configuration tool in the Settings >
Configuration Tools area of the Web Applications.
To define exception periods:

1. In Modeling Configuration, select the Exception Periods tab.

2. Click Insert in the top right corner of the window to switch to insert mode.

3. Enter an Exception Period Name, select a Source and Measurement, enter a Desired
Label, and Condition in the input boxes at the top of the main display grid.

The Condition must be a valid SQL query statement.

NOTE: The Desired Label is used to control if the exception period is excluded from the
model, or if it is treated as a sub-model. Enter the text Delete as Desired Label if you want to
exclude that period from the model. Enter any other text, for example a descriptive text such
as Holiday, if you want to sub-model the exception period. An excluded exception period will
be blank in the final model output graphic.

4. Click Insert to the right of the input boxes to insert the new exception period definition. The
definition is moved to the bottom of the main display grid, below any pre-existing exception
period definitions.

5. Click Search in the top right corner of the window to switch back to search mode.

Active Directory or local Windows operating system.

Each user has an access level, which is set in User Manager. The access level determines which
actions the user is allowed to take in PME.

There are 5 different access levels. The highest level is Supervisor, the lowest level is Observer.
All Windows users that are a member of a Windows group in PME have the same access level as
the one set for the Windows group. For details on the permissions granted by the different access
levels see User access levels and permissions.

Each user is a member of at least one user group. The user group determines which sources and
applications the user can access. By default, users are assigned to the Global user group which has
access to all sources and applications in the system. See user groups for details on how to
configure groups and assign users to groups.

Rules
The following rule applies to users in PME:

l A Windows user that is a member of multiple Windows groups with different access levels in
PME, gets the highest access level of any of the groups.

Example:

Windows user BillG is a member of Windows group A with observer access level in PME.
Windows user BillG is also a member of Windows group B with operator access level in PME.
As a result, BillG has operator access level in PME.

Configuring Web Applications Guide

User Groups
User groups determine which sources and applications users can access in Power Monitoring
Expert (PME). Each user is a member of at least one user group.

PME has two built-in groups, the Global group and the Unassigned group. Members of the Global
group can access all sources and applications in the system. Members of the Unassigned group
can access none of the sources and applications in the system. Members of the Unassigned group
are also not allowed to log into PME Web Applications.

In addition to the built-in groups, you can create any number of custom user groups in PME. Use
User Manager to create a custom group and define which sources and applications its members can
access.

NOTE: User group membership determines which sources and applications are visible to a user.
User groups do not set the user access level for the group members. Access levels are set for
each user individually as part of the user account settings.

The user group feature only applies to the Dashboards, Diagrams, Trends, Alarms, and Reports
applications in PME. For all other applications users have full access to all sources regardless of
their group membership.

Rules
The following rules apply to group membership in PME:

l A user is a member of at least one group.

l A user can be a member of multiple groups.

l When a new user is created, it is automatically added to the Global group.

l If a member of the Global group is added to another group, it is automatically removed from the
Global group.

l If a user is removed from the Global group without being added to a custom group, it is auto-
matically added to the Unassigned group.

l If a user is removed from its last custom group, or this group is deleted, the user is auto-
matically added to the Unassigned group.

l If a member of a custom group is added to the Global group, it is automatically removed from all
custom groups.

l A Supervisor level user can only be a member of the Global group.

l If a Non-Supervisor level user that is a member of a custom group is promoted to Supervisor, it


is automatically removed from all custom groups and added to the Global group.

l If the last custom group is deleted, all of its members are moved to the Global group.

The following rules apply to resource access by groups in PME:

l A user that is a member of multiple groups can access the sources of each group.

l If a member of a custom group is deleted or removed from the group, then this user's public con-
tent, such as dashboards or reports, remains available to the group.

Page 138 7EN02-0409-00


Web Applications Guide Configuring

l If a member of a custom group is deleted or removed from the group, then this user's private con-
tent, such as dashboards or reports, is only available to users with Supervisor access.

l If a member of a custom group is removed from the group, then this user has no longer access
to any of its content, such as dashboards or reports, that was created during its group mem-
bership.

Limitations
The following limitations exist for user groups in PME:

l The Global and Unassigned user groups cannot be renamed or deleted.

l The default settings for which sources and applications can be accessed in the Global and
Unassigned user groups cannot be changed.

l User group names must be between 1-255 characters long. Any leading or trailing whitespace
characters are removed.

l If a user group name contains a ] (left angle bracket), the bracket must be followed by a space
or be at the end of the name.

l If a user group name contains a & (ampersand), the ampersand must not be followed by a #
(hash).

Incidents, Alarms, and Events


Incidents
Incidents provide a high-level view. They represent real world power events, such as disturbances
or faults. An Incident combines Alarms, Waveforms, and Burst data from many sources in the
system into a single representation of the power event. You can look at an Incident and see how the
different pieces of information are linked together, instead of having to analyze each data point
individually. Incidents include the Timeline Analysis that shows the sequence of events for the
different components in the Incident. Use Incidents as a starting point for an alarm analysis.

Timeline Analysis Viewing a Timeline Analysis Timeline Analysis UI
Waveforms Viewing Waveforms Waveforms UI

7EN02-0409-00 Page 163


Operating Web Applications Guide

Alarms
Alarms provide information on the state and history of alarm conditions that are defined for specific
sources and measurements in the system. Use Alarms to monitor the state of your power system
and to investigate specific details as part of an Incident analysis.
For more information see:

Alarms Viewing Alarms Alarm Status UI


Alarm History UI

Events
Events are records of activities in the system. Activities are performed by users, the system
software, or the connected devices. Events are logged and displayed as they happen in the system
without any processing or aggregation. PME uses event records to determine alarm types and
states. Use events for low level investigations and detailed root cause analysis.
For more information see:

Events Viewing Events Event History UI

Alarm Acknowledgment
You can acknowledge Alarms in Status Views and History Views. If you acknowledge Alarms
through an Incident History View, all Alarms that are part of this Incident will be acknowledged.
Whenever you acknowledge an Alarm, from any of these locations, you are acknowledging the
Alarm Definition itself, not a particular instance of it. That means acknowledging an alarm marks it
as Acknowledged and resets its Unacknowledged occurrence counter. See Acknowledging Alarms
for more information.

Time display
See Time display in Web Applications for information on how time is displayed in a system where
the monitoring devices, the PME/Web server, and the Web client (browser) are located in different
time zones.

Terminology
See Alarms Terminology for definitions of the terms used in the Alarms application.

For information on how to configure Alarms, see Alarm View configuration.

Web Applications Guide Operating

Incidents
Incidents in PME represent real world power events, such as disturbances or faults. An Incident
combines Alarms, Waveforms, and Burst data from many sources in the system into a single
representation of the power event. Instead of having to analyze each data point individually, you can
look at an Incident and see how the different pieces of information are linked together.

PME uses Alarm types and Alarm start times as criteria to determine which Alarms to group into a
specific Incident. The start of an Alarm marks the beginning of an Incident. Any Alarm of a similar
type, that starts within a certain time interval is considered part this same Incident. The grouping
time interval is always based on the most recent Alarm in the Incident, which means that the
counter is restarted every time a new Alarm is added to the Incident. If there is no more Alarm that
falls inside the interval, the Incident is complete. The maximum duration for an Incident is 24 hours
and the maximum number of Alarms in an Incident is 500. A new Incident is started the next time an
Alarm is recorded. See Alarm to Incident mapping for more information.

The Incident grouping time interval is different for different Alarm types. For example, Over Voltage
Alarms have a time interval of 5 minutes. If a new Over Voltage Alarm occurs within 5 minutes, for
any source, it is grouped into the same Incident. To make it easier to analyze Incidents, PME
categorizes them into types. The Incident types are based on the Alarm types.

The following table shows the Incident types and the grouping time intervals for each type:

Category Type Grouping Time Interval


Interruption
5 minutes *
Over Voltage
5 minutes *
Under Voltage
5 minutes *

* These grouping intervals time settings are default settings. The defaults are extended
automatically to include power quality alarms that are outside the interval but close enough that they
could be related to the Incident.

Timeline Analysis
Timeline Analysis is a sequence of event analysis for items that are associated with one or more
Incidents or Alarms. The items are shown on a timeline, in chronological order. Items include
Alarms, Waveforms and Burst data recordings. The tools available for the Timeline Analysis allow
you to add or remove items from the timeline, add notes, zoom in or out, and include Alarms
previously not associated with this Incident. You can save a Timeline Analysis as new View in the
View Library for future reference. See Timeline Analysis UI for more information.

NOTE: Alarms and data measurements during an Incident occur in very short time intervals. To
show the correct sequence of events in the Timeline Analysis, the Analysis item timestamps must
be accurate. Consider using monitoring devices with Precision Time Protocol (PTP) or GPS time
synchronization for accurate time stamping.

Operating Web Applications Guide

Alarms
An Alarm is a defined condition for a particular source in PME. The software or the device monitors
this condition and records when the condition is met and when not. For example, you can define an
Over Voltage Alarm for a certain monitoring device in the system. When the voltage threshold is
exceeded on this device, the Alarm goes active. When the voltage drops below the threshold, the
Alarm goes inactive. The next time the voltage on this device goes above the threshold again, the
same Alarm goes active again. An Alarm is always associated with a single source and a single
measurement.

Some Alarms are based on instantaneous events such as a voltage transient, others are based on a
condition that lasts a certain period of time such as an over voltage condition. For lasting conditions,
the Alarm goes from an inactive state to an active state while the condition lasts and then back to an
inactive state when the condition is over. Instantaneous Alarms are always shown in an inactive
state.

The following diagram shows an Alarm that is based on a lasting condition. The Alarm goes active
at the time T1 and inactive at T2. The time interval between T1 and T2 can be short or long.

0 = inactive Alarm state; 1 = active Alarm state; T = time

T1 = Alarm goes active

T2 = Alarm goes inactive

The following diagram shows an instantaneous Alarm. For this Alarm, the start time T1 and end time
T2 are identical.

0 = inactive Alarm state, 1 = active Alarm state; T = time

T1/2 = Alarm goes active and immediately inactive again

Page 168 7EN02-0409-00


Web Applications Guide Operating

After an Alarm has gone active, it can be acknowledged in the Alarm Viewer. When you
acknowledge an Alarm, the date and time of the acknowledgment is recorded together with an
optional note that you can enter in the acknowledge window.

An Alarm stays unacknowledged until you acknowledge it. After you have acknowledged an Alarm,
it stays acknowledged until the next time it goes active. At that point it is reset to unacknowledged
and is waiting for you to acknowledge it again.

PME counts the number of times an Alarm goes through an inactive to active state transition. The
number of these transitions is displayed as Occurrences in the Alarm Viewer in the Alarm Status
View. There are two counters for each Alarm. One counter for the total number of Occurrences, and
one for Occurrences since the Alarm was last acknowledged.

The time period during which an Alarm is active, starting when it goes active, ending when it goes
inactive, is called an Alarm instance.

Alarm conditions are defined either as software Alarms in the Alarm Configuration tool, or as device
based Alarms in the monitoring devices, using the appropriate device configuration tool.

To make it easier to analyze Alarms, PME categorizes them into types and combines Alarms of
similar types into Incidents, based on the Alarm start times.

The following table shows the different Alarm categories and types in PME:

Category Type
Flicker
Frequency Variation

Events
An Event is a record of an activity or a condition that is logged in PME. Events are generated by
users, the system software, or the connected devices. Examples of Events include resetting a
measurement, logging into PME, making a configuration change in a device, or a setpoint going
active on a device. Some of these Events are logged automatically, for others logging must be
setup manually. Each Event record that is logged has a timestamp and a number of fields that
describe the activity. Each Event record describes one single activity or condition, for example, a
particular setpoint going active in a particular monitoring device.

Events are logged and displayed as they happen in the system without any processing or
aggregation. For example, an Over Voltage setpoint going active and then inactive in a device will
cause 3 Events to be logged, one for the pickup, one for the dropout, and one for the extreme
voltage value measured during the time the setpoint was active.
Here is an example of the Event records for an over voltage setpoint:

Source Timestampe Event Condition Measurement Value Type


8/10/2017 Over Voltage
My.Device ON 145.740 Pick up
1:44:53.000 PM Voltage Phase A
8/10/2017 Over Voltage
My.Device Extreme 145.740 Instantaneous
1:44:53.000 PM Voltage Phase A
8/10/2017 Over Voltage
My.Device OFF 125.230 Drop out
1:45:39.000 PM Voltage Phase A

PME uses Event records to determine Alarm types and states.

Waveforms
Waveforms are graphical representations of voltage and current that show their variations over time.
The waveform displays in PME are based on logged, historical measurements that were recorded
by a monitoring device. The measurements recorded by a device for a waveform capture are called
samples and the speed with which these samples are taken is called sampling rate. The higher the
sampling rate, the more accurately the waveform capture represents the actual voltage or current
waveform. Captures taken by different device types can have different sampling rates, depending
on the capabilities and settings of the device.

Use Waveforms to analyze power quality events by viewing the individual wave shapes, the
magnitudes, the phase angles between voltage and current, and the timing of wave shape
variations. Waveform data is also used to show voltage and current phasors and the individual
harmonic components.

See Waveforms UI for more information.

Power Quality Rating gadget

NOTE: This gadget is part of the Power Quality Performance Module. This Module requires a
separate license.

This gadget shows a power quality rating in the form of a letter grade (A to F). The rating is a
summary of multiple types of power quality disturbances. The information is shown as a graphic
display of the letter grade, with a % power quality rating and a list of the main contributing
disturbances.

The following formula is used to calculate the power quality rating:

Where:

l PQ.Indicators.Value is a number indicating each power quality indicator status (green = 2, yel-
low= 1, red = 0).

l PQ.Indicators.MaxValue = 2 for each individual indicator.

l Weight Factor is an adjustable value (default=1) for assigning different weight to each individual
indicator as per user’s needs.

The power quality rating is mapped to the letter grades in the following way:

l PQ.Rating >= 95% à "A"

l PQ.Rating >= 85% à "B"

l PQ.Rating >= 75% à "C"

l PQ.Rating >= 65% à "D"

l PQ.Rating >= 55% à "E"

l PQ.Rating >= 0% à "F"

With 0% = worst power quality and 100% = optimal power quality.

NOTE: The ratings are based on established thresholds and limits defined in IEEE519, IEC 61000-
4-30, EN50160, and IEEE1159 standards.

WARNING
INACCURATE DATA RESULTS
• Do not incorrectly configure the software or the devices.
• Do not base your maintenance or service actions solely on messages and information
displayed by the software.
• Do not rely solely on software messages and reports to determine if the system is functioning
correctly or meeting all applicable standards and requirements.
• Consider the implications of unanticipated transmission delays or failures of communications
links.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, equipment
damage, or permanent loss of data.

Overview
Use the Reports application to generate historical data reports. You can view the reports in PME, or
download them in different formats for sharing or storing externally. To generate a report, you can
either run it manually, setup an automatic schedule, or define trigger events such as a system
disturbance.

Reports are based on historical data that is stored in the PME database. A report can simply display
the historical data or it can process data to show patterns and relationships. The Tabular Report is
an example of a simple report that shows data in a table. The Energy Modeling report is an example
of a report that processes different types of input data to produce predictions and comparisons
displayed in chart and diagram formats.

Reports are generated based on report templates. PME provides a wide range of default templates.
You can change the colors and logo used for these templates. To customize the types of inputs or
outputs of the default templates you need to create custom templates. Creating custom templates
requires engineering work outside of PME.

The Reports user interface (UI) has two main areas: the Report Library and the Reports Display. To
see a report in the Reports Display, you select the report in the Report Library.

TIP: You can open Reports from the REPORTS link in the Web Applications banner.

1. You specify three 8-hour shifts:

Shift 1: 7:00 AM to 3:00 PM

Shift 2: 3:00 PM to 11:00 PM

Shift 3: 11:00 PM to 7:00 AM

Note that Shift 3 spans midnight (12:00 a.m.).

2. Your Reporting Period is Last 7 Days.

3. You generate the report on day 8 before 7:00 a.m., that is, before the end of Shift
3 for day 7.

The generated report will include usage data under Shift 3 for day 8. However, this
shift 3 usage data is that portion of shift 3 from the previous day (day 7) that occurred
after midnight.

In addition, this allocation of usage data to the next day for shift 3 from midnight to
7:00 a.m. occurs for all of the days throughout the reporting period.

To avoid this situation, select specific days (Fixed Date) for the Reporting Period.

Load Profile Report


Use the Load Profile report template to create a graphical representation of demand or load levels
over a period of time. The profile shows peak loads as points on the graph where peak electricity
demand is high. A load trend report can be used to analyze the electrical loads at the time of
maximum demand. This information can show opportunities for developing strategies to improve
energy management.

Power Quality Report


Use the Power Quality report templateto create a report that summarizes the number and severity of
voltage sags, swells, and transients over a period of time. The generated report includes a graphical
representation of these disturbances plotted against one or more power quality curves, such as
CBEMA (1996), CBEMA (Updated), ITIC, or SEMI F47 curves.

The Power Quality report aggregates historical power quality data into power quality incidents:

l An incident is a summary, or aggregated event, which represents a number of individual dis-


turbances (sags, swells, or transients) that occurred across an electrical network in a small win-
dow of time.

l A disturbance refers to a sag, swell, or transient event in the Event Log.

This report also displays waveform plots as well as RMS plots associated with a single incident, or
all waveforms associated with their respective incidents.

Prerequisites

l The measurement data must be available as historical data logs in the database.

Incident details:

When you use the Generate Dynamically sub-reports option, you can view details of an incident by
clicking the link in the TimeStamp column in the table.
Detailed information about a single power quality incident is displayed, including:

l A CBEMA (1996), CBEMA (Updated), ITIC, or SEMI F47 curve containing the power quality dis-
turbances for the selected incident. (The curve used in the plot is dependent on the overlay
options you select for the report.)

l The timestamps, types, phases, duration, and magnitude of disturbances in the selected incid-
ent, with the worst event in the selected incident highlighted (worst event = largest magnitude x
duration).

l The power quality settings of the device that registered the disturbance (for example, sag/swell
limits, transient threshold, and so on).

To return to the summary report, use the report section back button on the report toolbar.

Waveform details:

When you use the Generate Dynamically sub-reports option, you can view the waveform details of
an incident by clicking the waveform icon in the incident details table in the Incident sub report.

The waveform details present all of the waveforms that were recorded for a disturbance. It displays
a waveform chart along with an optional table with waveform values.
The following waveform plots and data are displayed, based on the timestamp selected:

l A summary waveform plot, displaying a plot of the V1, V2 and V3 waveforms.

l An individual waveform plot for each of:


V1 and I1

V2 and I2

V3 and I3

l If the source queried has digital input logging enabled over the time interval of the waveforms, a
waveform showing the digital input status.

l The timestamp for the time the waveforms were triggered.

l The sampling frequency of the waveforms.

Power Quality Analysis Report

NOTE: This report is part of the Power Quality Performance Module. This Module requires a
separate license.

This report summarizes power quality events and disturbances occurring in a production
environment. The events include voltage transients, sags, swells, and interruptions, as well as over
voltage and under voltage events. Disturbances are related to harmonics, unbalances, flicker, and
frequency variation. The report also includes a power factor status. An understanding of these
events and disturbances can help you determine actions to take to reduce production downtime and
to increase equipment lifetime and reliability.

Depending on the events and disturbances you select, the generated report provides data
categorized as follows:

l Power Quality Event Summary, consisting of Power Quality Events Breakdown, Power Qual-
ity Events Impact, and Power Quality Events Location.
Power Quality Events Breakdown shows the percent distribution of the events in a pie
chart.

Power Quality Events Impact shows a percent distribution of the events with a likely
impact and no impact in a pie chart.

Power Quality Events Location shows the distribution of the number of events in a bar chart
with likely impact and no impact identified for each of the External, Internal, and
Undetermined locations.

l Power Quality Events — Details, consisting of events impact and events location for each
detected event. and Disturbance Details for each detected disturbance.
Events Impact shows the number of each event type with a likely impact and no impact.

Events Location provides a distribution of the number of each event with a likely impact and
no impact in External, Internal, and Undetermined locations.

l Power Quality Disturbances — Details, consisting of a graphical representation of the dis-


tribution for each disturbance followed by a data table containing measurement and value
details.

l Power Factor — Details, consisting of additional information on power quality disturbances.


The logged data represented in a trend chart is for each Incomer or main meter defined in the
PowerQualityGroups.csv file. The table below the chart shows Active and Reactive energy
data grouped by each power source meter. The red target line in the chart is set to 92 by default

Specifying which application to open first


When you connect to Web Applications through a client computer, the application whose link is on
the left of the series of application links opens in the browser. To specify a different application to
open first, add one of the following application query parameters into the Web address.

/#Dashboards /#Alarms
/#Diagrams /#Reports
/#Trends

For example, http://srv1.MyCompany.com/Web/#Trends opens the Trends application in


the browser.

Time display in Web Applications


Most of the information displayed in the Web Applications is time based, such as timestamped real-
time data and historical data. In a PME system there are 3 reference points for time zones: the
monitoring devices/sources, the PME/Web server, the Web client (browser).

PME supports configurations where the devices/sources, the server, and the client are located in
different time zones. For example, a user in time zone A accesses the PME/Web server which is
located in time zone B. The monitoring devices that are providing the data are located in time zone
C.

The following table shows how the different Web Applications display time with regards to time
zone:

Web Application Time Zone Used for Display


Dashboards Device/source time zone as configured in Management Console.
Diagrams Device/source time zone as configured in Management Console.
Trends Web client (browser) time zone as configured in the client browser.
Alarms Device/source time zone as configured in Management Console.*

time zone.

* Alarms has tooltips that show the time in both the device/source time zone, and the Web client
(browser) time zone.

7EN02-0409-00 Page 453


Operating Web Applications Guide

NOTE: Web Applications uses Management Console time zone settings for the device/source
time zone. The time zone settings in Management Console are set per device and must be
configured correctly, for Web Applications to show the correct time. The time zone settings in
Management Console are independent of time zone settings on the devices themselves. Web
Applications does not use the time zone settings on the devices themselves.

Where is my measurement?
If you do not see a measurement that you expect in the data series list, it is probably due to one of
the following:

l The measurement is not logged. By default, only logged measurements are available in the data
series list. To view newly added measurements, clear the checkbox Display only Meas-
urements with historical data.

l The measurement is filtered out of the current list. Select from one of the options in the Show
drop-down list:
All displays all available measurements for the selected type.

Common displays a list of the most commonly used measurements.

l The measurement is not available for the type selected in the Type drop-down list. Select a dif-
ferent type from the Type drop-down list.

l The measurement is a custom measurement for which the metadata is not set up. The
metadata defines the measurement type, as well as how a measurement is presented in the
Type and Show drop-down lists. The standard measurements supplied in the software have
their metadata already defined. However, metadata for an application-specific custom meas-
urement must also be defined in order for the software to know how to use it.

UPS Battery Health Report calculations


The following terms and explanations of various calculations are used in the UPS Battery Health
Report:

First Drop Analysis – Minimum Drop Voltage (V), Maximum Drop Voltage (V) and
Difference (%): The voltage drop minimum, maximum and percentage difference values are shown
in the Drop Analysis table section. To calculate these values, a valid waveform voltage drop must
be found first by sampling the waveform data.

A valid voltage drop is defined as the first waveform section of size n, where the relative minimum
and maximum voltage values have a percentage difference d. In addition, the next sample n+1 must
be greater in value than the minimum voltage, to ensure that the lowest value has been found in the
voltage drop.

The sampling section size n and the percentage difference d are determined by the user-defined
report parameters Waveform Drop Sample Size and Waveform Drop Percentage, respectively.

After the voltage drop has been found, the Minimum Voltage and Maximum Voltage are simply the
min and max values in that drop samples, and the Difference is the percentage of the maximum
voltage over the minimum voltage. For example:
Minimum Drop Voltage = Min(ws1 <= WaveformValues < = wsN)
Maximum Drop Voltage= Max(ws1 <= WaveformValues <= wsN)
ws1 is the first point in the sample and wsN is the last point in the sample
Difference (%) = [(Maximum Drop Voltage – Minimum Drop Voltage) / Maximum Drop Voltage]

Recovery Analysis – Target Recovery Voltage (V), Actual Recovery Voltage (V) and
Recovery Time (ms):

Target Recovery Voltage (V): This value is calculated for the reference waveform only. This is
calculated as follows:
Target Recovery Voltage (V) = [Recovery Voltage * Recovery Value Multiplier]
Where Recovery Voltage = Average(w1 <= WaveformValues < wN)
w1 is the very first point in the waveform and wN is the lowest point in the waveform voltage drop
and Recovery Value Multiplier is a user-defined value in the report pre-requisite page

Actual Recovery Voltage (V): The first point in the reference and comparison waveforms that
occurs after the voltage drop, that is equal or greater than the Target Recovery Voltage value.

Recovery Time (ms): This is the time elapsed from the Minimum Voltage Drop time and the Actual
Recovery Voltage time, expressed in milliseconds.

Additional calculations

Voltage Threshold: This is the red horizontal area that is highlighted in the waveform drop chart. It
represents a nominal voltage value, therefore there are no calculations for the Voltage Threshold.

For example, if the user sets the Voltage Threshold to 50V, then a red line will be drawn at 50v
(based on the Y-axis) and the area below the red line appears shaded in red.

Configuring Chart settings


To configure chart settings:

1. In the Trend Setup dialog, on the Chart tab, select the text size from the list.

The text size property is applied to trend axis labels, the size of the legend, the legend text
size, and trend data point tooltips.

The default setting is Medium, and the choices are Small, Medium, or Large.

2. Select the position of the legend included in the trend display area from the list.

The default setting is Right, which places the legend on the right side of the trend. The
available choices are Off, Left, or Right.

3. Select the content that you want to include in the legend from the available settings.

The default selections are Name and Value. The additional selections are Difference and
Difference (%).

Name is either the default measurement name in the form of group.device


measurement, or the custom name that you specified on the Add or Edit Data Series
dialogs.

Value is latest data value and the unit of measurement. For example, for voltage
measurements, the default value is numeric_value V such as 415.2 V.

Difference is the change in the measurement from one update to the next. For example, if the
voltage is 415.8 and it changes to 416.1 at the next trend update, the difference appears as
+0.3 in the legend.

Difference (%) is the percentage change in the measurement from one update to the next. For
example, if the voltage changes from 415.8 to 416.1 at the next trend update, the difference
expressed as a percentage appears as +0.072% in the legend.

Configuring Data display settings


To configure data display settings:

1. In the Trend Setup dialog, on the Data tab, specify the Data Update Intervals in the From
device and From database dropdown lists.

The default setting is 5 seconds for data updates for trends using the data directly from a
device, and 5 minutes for data updates for trends with data from a database.

2. Specify the Data Points for the x-axis of the trend in the Max per series input field.

The default setting is 40000.

The value must be between 100 and 500,000. Increasing the value adds more data points per
series but this can result in a degradation of trend performance.
Examples:

A data interval of 1 second equates to 3600 data points per hour (60 points per minute X 60
minutes per hour). At a setting of 40000 points, approximately 11.1 hours of data is
retained for viewing (40, 000 points / 3600 points per hour = approximately 11.1 hours).

A data interval of 5 seconds equates to 720 data points per hour (12 points per minute X 60

Page 498 7EN02-0409-00


Web Applications Guide Reference

minutes per hour). At a setting of 40000 points, approximately 55.5 hours of data is
retained for viewing (40, 000 points / 720 points per hour = approximately 55.5 hours).

A data interval of 10 seconds equates to 360 data points per hour (6 points per minute X 60
minutes per hour). At a setting of 40000 points, approximately 111.1 hours of data is
retained for viewing (40, 000 points / 360 points per hour = approximately 111.1 hours).

Alarms Terminology
The following is a list of commonly used terms related to Alarms in PME.

Alarm
The term Alarm is commonly used to describe both, an Alarm Definition and an Alarm Instance.
Which one it represents in any particular application must be derived from the context in which it is
used. It is better to use the terms Alarm Definition and Alarm Instance to avoid ambiguity.

Alarm Definition
An Alarm Definition is the specification of defined condition for a particular measurement from a
particular source. When the condition is met, the Alarm goes active. When the condition is no longer
met, the Alarm goes inactive. Example: An Overcurrent Alarm that goes active when the measured
current for a load goes above a defined limit. The Alarm Definition includes the Alarm Name, the
source and measurement, the Alarm limits, and any other conditions that are relevant for the Alarm.

Alarm Instance
An Alarm Instance is a record of an occurrence where a monitored load exceeds the limits set in the
Alarm Definition. An Alarm Instance starts when the Alarm state goes active and ends when it goes
inactive. An Alarm Instance has a start and end date.

Alarm Occurrence Count


The Alarm Occurrence Counts is a count of the Alarm Instances that have happened for an Alarm
Definition.

Alarm State
The Alarm State shows if the monitored load presently meets the conditions defined in the Alarm
Definition or not. If it meets the conditions, the Alarm State is Active. If it does not meet the
conditions, the Alarm State is Inactive.

Alarm Acknowledgment
An Alarm Acknowledgment is a way to indicate in the software that you have seen the Alarm and
that it is being managed. When you acknowledge an Alarm, the date and time of the
acknowledgment is recorded together with an optional note that you can enter in the acknowledge
window.

An Alarm can be acknowledged after it has gone active. An Alarm stays unacknowledged until you
acknowledge it. After you have acknowledged an Alarm, it stays acknowledged until the next time it
goes active. At that point it is reset to unacknowledged and is waiting for you to acknowledge it
again.

NOTE: You can acknowledge Alarms in Status Views and History Views. If you acknowledge
Alarms through an Incident History View, all Alarms that are part of this Incident will be
acknowledged. Whenever you acknowledge an Alarm, from any of these locations, you are
acknowledging the Alarm Definition itself, not a particular instance of it. That means
acknowledging an alarm marks it as Acknowledged for all Instances and resets the
Unacknowledged occurrence counter.

Incident
An Incident combines Alarms, Waveforms, and Burst data from many sources in the system. The
elements are combined based on the proximity in time when the data was recorded and based on an
analysis of the type of data. The goal is to create a single representation of a real world power event
that shows the impact of this event on the power system as a whole.

Burst Data
Burst data is pre- and post event data that is logged during an Alarm Instance. The recording of the
data is triggered by an Alarm going active. Devices that support Burst data keep a continuous buffer
of data logs in memory, until a Burst data capture is triggered. At that point, the data is recorded and
uploaded to the software. By showing both pre- and post event data, Burst data is a very effective
analysis tool. Burst data can be high speed data, such as half-cycle RMS measurements of
voltages, currents, and other quantities, or it can be 1 second measurements for slowly changing
parameters.

Event
Events are records of activity or conditions in the monitoring system. Events are generated by
devices and the software and are logged and displayed as they happen in the system without any
processing or aggregation. The system uses Event records to determine Alarm types and states.

Status View
A Status View in the Alarms application shows Alarm Definitions in the system, their present state,
how often they occurred, their priority, and other relevant information.

History View
A History View in the Alarms application shows instances of Incidents, Alarms, or Events that have
occurred in the system.

Independent Variable
The independent variable is the driver that influences the measurement you want to model. For
example, if you are modeling the energy consumption of a building based on outside temperature,
then the outside temperature is the independent variable. You can specify one or more independent
variables.

To specify the independent variables,

1. Click Select Source and select a source from the list. Hierarchies are not supported for inde-
pendent variables.

2. Click Select Measurement and select the measurement.

3. Select an aggregation method for the measurement from the Aggregation Method drop down
list.

The following aggregation methods are available:

AVG: Calculates the average measurement value over the interval.


SUM: Sums the measurements values over the interval.
DELTA: Subtracts the beginning measurement value from the end measurement value of the
interval.
MIN: Selects the minimum measurement value over the interval.
MAX: Selects the minimum measurement value over the interval.
CDD: Calculates the Cooling Degree Days.
HDD: Calculates the Heating Degree Days.

For CDD or HDD, enter the base temperature in the Degree Days Base Temperature input
box that is displayed when one of these options is selected.

To add additional variables, click the + sign next to the Select Source button. Click - to remove a
variable. To enable or disable a variable, select or clear the check box next to the Select Source
button.

Input Source Measurements


Select one or more measurements and their sources, to be used in the calculation of the KPI. Each
measurement is associated with a label, for example A,B,C, ... which you use to define the KPI
formula.

Insert Data
You can save the output of the model report into the Power Monitoring Expert database and use it
for display in Dashboards and Trends. The source name created for this data in the database is
Modeled_Data.<model name>. The following measurements will be recorded for this source:

Measured: This is a copy of the dependent variable measured data.


Modeled Data: This is the data calculated by the model for the dependent variable.
Residual: This is the delta between the Measured data and the Modeled data
Residual%: This is the Residual data in percent.

To save the data into the database, select Yes for Insert Data.

Page 554 7EN02-0409-00


Web Applications Guide Reference

TIP: Setup a subscription to run the model report weekly for the last 7 days and save the output
into the database. This will ensure you have a complete data set for modeled data for use in
Dashboards and Trends.

Interval and Sub Model Configuration


Select the reporting interval from the Interval drop-down list.

Select the sub model from the Sub Model drop-down list. The options in this drop-down list depend
on the selected Interval and the sub models that have been defined in Settings > Configuration
Tools > Modeling Configuration.

The Database Driven option is used to define operating conditions instead of time periods for sub-
modeling. For example, you could define the condition of Power Factor < 0.8. That means that one
sub-model is used when the Power Factor is < 0.8 and a different one when it is >= 0.8. This is
similar to sub-modeling based on weekdays versus weekend days, just that the Power Factor value
is used as a condition instead of the day of the week.

When you select Database Driven, additional input boxes are displayed to select the Source,
Measurement, Key, and Value. The Key is the condition, for example for Power Factory < 0.8,
enter <0.8 in the Key input box. The Value box is just a label to identify the condition, so you could
enter Low PF for low Power Factor.

You can add one or more conditions. Click the + icon to add additional conditions.

Model creation example


The following example shows the process of creating a model for use with the Use Model Report. It
shows the steps for creating a basic model and then improving it iteratively.

In this example we use the report to model the HVAC related electrical energy consumption of a
building. Our goal is to create a daily model for energy consumption based on outside temperature
and humidity. We use consumption data for the year 2017 to create the model.

Model creation run 1


The dependent variable is the electrical Real Energy (kWh) measurement for the HVAC system of
the building. The independent variables are the outside temperature and humidity.

We use the following inputs for the Create Model report:

Title Create Model Report


Source = HVAC - Fans and Compressors
Dependent Variable Measurement = Real Energy (kWh)
Aggregation Method = SUM
Source = Victoria.Weather
Measurement = Weather Temperature (°C)
Aggregation Method = AVG
Independent Variable(s) Source = Victoria.Weather
Measurement = Weather Relative Humidity

Interval = Week
Interval and Sub Model Configuration
Sub Model = No Sub Model
Use Exception Periods No
Show Detailed Results No
Save Model Configuration No

For the first run we choose an interval of Week, only to see if there is a strong relationship between
consumption and the independent variables. Later we change this to Day to get a Daily Model.

TIP: Move your pointer over the chart line to see tooltips with measurement details.

The model accuracy, measured by the R² value, is pretty high, which show that there is a correlation
between the energy consumption and the outside temperature as well as humidity.

For the next run, we use a Daily aggregation method.

The R² has dropped and the visual correlation is not very high. The charts show that there is a big
difference in consumption between weekdays and weekends. This difference cannot be explained
by outside temperature or humidity alone. For the next run we use sub-models for weekdays and
weekends.

We have again improved the model. In our example, the building is cooled electrically, which means
the greatest impact of outside temperature on energy consumption is during the cooling season. To
account for that, we change the Aggregation Method for outside temperature to Cooling Degree

Interpreting the Energy Regression Analysis Report results


The Energy Regression Analysis Tool is a highly configurable tool that allows you to monitor and
manage a building or facility’s energy and resource consumption. This practice, called energy
modeling, involves analyzing building energy systems, monitoring energy consumption, and
detecting anomalies or changes in system behavior that may require that you perform energy
efficiency upgrades or fixes. The Energy Regression Analysis Report allows you to model energy
data one independent variable at a time with a wide range of desired independent variables, such as
weather or occupancy rate.

It is recommended that users have a basic understanding of energy modeling and understand how
to create an Energy Regression Analysis Report. This section discusses in detail the purpose of
each parameter in the report and how to read and interpret meaningful results of an Energy
Regression Analysis Report. After generating the report, conclusions can be drawn from the
generated tables and charts to monitor energy consumption and make cost saving decisions.
Energy Regression Analysis Report results provide a characterization of a building's performance.
You can perform different types of energy analysis with this information, including the following:

l Energy Benchmarking

l Energy Budgeting

l Energy Savings

Reading the report


This section discusses how to read the different types of information in the report.

Report Parameters Summary table

The Report Parameters Summary table appears at the beginning of the report. Based on what you
select for the Show Report Parameters Summary option on the prerequisite page, you can make
this table appear or be hidden in the report.

This table provides important details, such as data sources, calculation methods, and other
parameters about how the report inputs are configured that can help the user understand report
results.

Regression Analysis Chart

The Regression Analysis Chart shows the relationship between the driver and model data.

In this chart, the blue dots represent real data points. In this case, the data is aggregated weekly
over the course of one year, therefore, there are 52 data points with each data point representing one
week of the year. The yellow line is the regression line, or performance line, of the building. The
performance (regression) line is the best fit line--a line that indicates the expected energy
consumption. The slope of the performance line is a measure of how much extra fuel, energy, or
other resource is consumed for an increase in the independent variable (such as degree days,
production units, and so forth).

7EN02-0409-00 Page 583


Reference Web Applications Guide

Deviations between building performance lines over time means that something has changed in the
way the facility consumes energy. This may be a result of energy efficiency modifications, or it
could indicate an issue with building systems, equipment, or processes. The performance line
provides a benchmark by which changes in energy consumption can be monitored, and appropriate
actions can be taken if variations are detected.

The point of intersection between the two performance lines is called the breakpoint. For energy
consumption analyzed with respect to average temperature, the breakpoint indicates the
temperature at which heating or cooling of a facility begins. Therefore, having a breakpoint further to
the right is better because this indicates that heating or cooling systems are running for less time,
which results in less energy usage.

Regression Analysis Main Characteristics Table

The Regression Analysis Main Characteristics Table provides information about the Regression
Analysis Chart.

The Side column shows the left and right sides. The Slope column shows the slope values of the
two best-fitting lines intersect. This intersection point is called the breakpoint. The Y-Intercept
column shows a point where the graph of a function or relation intersects with the y-axis of the
coordinate system. Therefore, these points satisfy x = 0.

Page 584 7EN02-0409-00


Web Applications Guide Reference

The R2 column shows a value that indicates how well the data fits the model. The RMSE column
shows the square root of the mean/average of the square of the error. The X Value and Y Value
columns show the coordinates of the Change point.

Monitoring the slopes and breakpoint values provides useful information about a facility’s energy
consumption. Flatter slope lines are better as they indicate a smaller increase in energy
consumption for every additional unit of the independent X-axis variable.

For more information on interpreting the report results, see Interpreting the report.

Measured Values Against Expected Values Chart

The Measured Values Against Expected Values Chart shows the relationship between the model
data and time.

In this chart, the blue line indicates the real energy usage over time and the performance line
indicates the expected energy usage over time based on the regression analysis.

The time axis, or X-axis, has different units depending on the selected aggregation period. For
weekly aggregation, the numbers on the X-axis represent the weeks of the year and for daily
aggregation, they represent the days of the year. The year or years contained within the reporting
period are displayed on the chart directly below the X-axis values.

Exceptions Table

The Exceptions Table below shows information for any data point that falls outside of the exception
range defined by the Deviation Type and Max Authorized Deviation parameters.

7EN02-0409-00 Page 585


Reference Web Applications Guide

If there are no exception points, this table does not appear in the report.

Full Table

The Full Table below shows information for all data points.

Within the Full Table, there is a row with missing values.

This row stores information about the breakpoint from the Regression Analysis Chart.

This report generates with almost any set of data and regardless of other parameter selections.
However, the generated report is only of assistance in monitoring energy consumption if the
parameters are configured correctly and with specific intent.

The following section provides specific examples of how to use the Energy Modeling Report to
monitor certain aspects of a facility’s energy consumption.

Page 586 7EN02-0409-00


Web Applications Guide Reference

Interpreting the report


After generating the report, the data can be analyzed in different ways to draw different conclusions
about energy and resource consumption. Below are two examples involving different independent
variables.

Example 1: Justifying Energy Efficiency Upgrades

Regression analysis of energy or resource consumption with respect to Degree Days can provide
valuable information about a facility’s energy efficiency with respect to outside changes in
temperature. Such information can be used to determine when energy efficiency upgrades are
necessary, and to monitor the effectiveness of such solutions after implementation.

For example, a facility manager could compare the Heating Degree Day energy profile of their
building to another facility in a similar climate. If the other building proves to be much more energy
efficient, an analysis could be performed on the differences in building design that could cause
these results. Perhaps the only significant difference is that the more efficient building recently
upgraded their insulation. The less efficient building could then use this information, along with the
Regression Analysis charts to pitch the case that an insulation upgrade should take place to reduce
natural gas usage at the facility.

If the upgrade is successful, a change appears in the Regression Analysis chart the following year.
The chart above shows a possible Regression analysis for the year before the energy efficiency
modifications. The red line in the chart shows how the performance lines and breakpoint could
change when the upgrades are successful. The slopes of the lines in the second figure are flatter,
indicating less energy usage for every additional degree day. The breakpoint also occurs later,
indicating that heating does not have to begin at as low of a temperature as before, thereby saving
additional resources.

Example 2: Identifying Equipment Failure

Regression analysis can also be used to detect equipment deterioration or failure. Below are two
Regression Analysis charts showing natural gas consumption with respect to production units.

The red line in the chart has a steeper slope and an earlier X-axis intersection point. This indicates
that more natural gas is being used for every unit of production. If data for these charts is collected
over different periods of time, but with no changes to manufacturing processes or equipment, the
steeper regression line in the second chart could indicate deterioration of equipment.

7EN02-0409-00 Page 587


Reference Web Applications Guide

Plotting energy consumption data against any independent variable, not just time, allows you to
analyze in greater detail the energy efficiency of your buildings or facilities, and to make necessary
upgrades or cost analysis decisions.

Conclusion

Energy modeling is a relatively new practice for monitoring and analyzing energy consumption in
buildings and facilities. It involves using computerized simulations to analyze energy consumption,
and it allows customers to understand their expected energy consumption and use this information
to make system design decisions and perform cost benefit analysis.

The Energy Modeling Report, or XY Regression Report, allows users to create energy profiles for
their buildings or facilities. These benchmark energy models provide valuable information about
energy and resource consumption that can help Facility Managers save resources by identifying
and addressing consumption issues.

Recommendations

Many of the report parameters on the prerequisite page are interdependent and configuring this page
requires close attention. It is recommended to rely on documentation to correctly configure the
report. Note that there is no filtering of parameters on the prerequisite page.

Reports Terminology
The following is a list of commonly used terms related to Reports in PME.

Report
A report is a report template that has been saved with some or all of its input parameters set. Every
time you run a report, it queries the database to retrieve the required data. A report does not store the
output data after it was generated. To save a permanent copy of the output, download the report in
one of the supported formats and save it externally.

Report Template
A report template defines the output layout, the types of inputs and the information in the database
that is accessed for that report. The difference between a report and a report template is that a report
has one or more of its input parameters saved and a template does not.

In the Report Library, report templates are shown with an icon that does not have a small circle on
its lower right corner .

Downloaded Report
A downloaded report is a copy of the output of a report. You can download a report in different
formats. Download a report to permanently save a copy of its output.

Report Input Parameters (or Inputs)


Report input parameters are the variables that must be entered before a report can be generated. For
example, the input parameters can determine for which devices a report is run, or which
measurements are included. Different report templates have different input parameters.

NOTE: You can identify a reports and report templates in the Report Library by their icon. See
Reports Icons for more information.
