The primary use of the PMU software is to define how a meter behaves. This includes:
The software can generate granular load profiles. By analyzing these curves, energy managers can identify peak demand periods, shift non-critical loads to off-peak times, and validate the ROI of demand response strategies. The software often includes a "coincident demand" calculator, showing how an individual load contributes to the facility’s overall peak. Elster Metering Systems Power Master Unit Software
Includes a load profile display facility for visualizing historical energy consumption patterns. Diagnostic Tools: The primary use of the PMU software is
The software is designed for both local and remote meter management. Metering AS Hierarchical Management Security and Compliance
The software supports various communication protocols and media. Whether connecting via an optical probe on the shop floor or remotely through RS-232, RS-485, or Ethernet modules, the Power Master Unit software streamlines the handshake process between the PC and the meter. 4.
