1.1. Overview
EQ100 is energy data collecting equipment that periodically collects measured data from
measurement devices connected to RS-485 communications port and LAN port and stores the
data in its internal memory.
EQ100 can connect a variety of measurement devices to collect a large amount of measured
data. It can also register an operation channel the operated the measured data and monitor
measured data for alarm output. The incorporated Web UI function allows a user to operate
EQ100 and view a simple graph on a Web browser. Attached graph display tool EQ-Viewer
allows advanced graph display and data analysis.
1.2. Features
EQ100 has following features:
Features
Details
A variety of measurement
devices can be
connected
EQ100 can connect various devices such as RS-485-connected
KM series, power monitor/temperature controller/analog value
input digital panel meter, as well as LAN-connected particle/air
flow device/PLC, in addition to wireless devices such as
thermo-humidity/illuminance/CO2 sensor.
A large amount of
measured data can be
collected
Up to 500 channels can be registered to EQ100. Configurable
intervals to collect data from measurement devices are 1 minute/5
minutes/10 minutes/30 minutes/60 minutes (the number of
channels that can be registered is limited based on the
measurement devices and data collecting interval).
Measurement channel
can be operated
An operation channel can be created as a new channel through
operation of measurement channels. There are two types of
operation channels; a free operation channel that can specify any
operation expression and a basic unit operation channel
calculated based on basic units of two measured data.
Monitoring Alarm
Function
For each collected measured data, configuration is available on
monitoring conditions based on control value and count, email
notification output upon the conditions, and monitoring alarm
output to general-purpose output terminal.
Sub-LAN connection port
available
In addition to the standard LAN port, a sub-LAN port is available
for network configuration dedicated to LAN-connected
measurement device. Connecting a LAN-connected measurement
device to the sub-LAN port enables stable measured data
collecting through the dedicated network.
Communication test
function with
measurement devices
The communication test function allows checking availability of
communications between EQ100 and a measurement device as
well as stable communications with a measurement device
beforehand. In addition, it can be used to investigate a cause of a
communication failure/error during data collecting.
Simple operation through
Web UI function
The Web UI function of EQ100 allows a user to operate EQ100,
view a simple graph of measured data, and check an operation
status on a Web browser.
Advanced view/analysis
by graph display tool
Attached graph display tool EQ-Viewer allows automatic summary
of collected data of EQ100 to the EQ server and detailed graph
display and analysis by the analysis tool EQ-GraphViewer.
