PQ Canvass Overview
Power Monitors has released a new cloud-based software product for power quality analysis, called
PQ Canvass.
PQ Canvass incorporates the features and convenience of our previous online software, Canvass. Many of the
power quality analysis and reporting tools of our desktop software, ProVision, and additional features to
support the newly released recorders.
PQ Canvass, unlike Canvass, has been designed from the ground up to support a wide array of devices and
screen sizes. This allows you to manage your devices, browse recordings, and even view live waveforms easily,
whether at your computer in the office, or travelling with your smartphone or tablet.
PQ Canvass is a cloud-based application that runs completely in a standard web browser - no extra software is
required. Recorders, such as the new Tensor, that support PQ Canvass, stream recorded data as it is gathered
during the recording session - no need to wait until the “end” of the recording session and download the
entire recorder memory.
Simply log into PQ Canvass and view all data gathered up to the present time. Live waveforms and meter
displays are also available for real-time information from any PQ Canvass device. SMS and email alerts are also
available for immediate notification on PQ events.
Contact your PMI sales representative for information on new PMI recorders and PQ Canvass.
