6.4.3 Consulting the energy probe (if enabled)
Fig. 11: Typical screen for consulting the energy probe
This option is used to consult data on the instantaneous power and energy consumed/generated
by the system and measured instantly by the energy probe.
CAUTION: Proper operation and proper consultation require:
• The energy probe 02960 to be powered and functioning
• The energy probe 02960 is properly interconnected with the circuit board 02915
• The clock of the timer-thermostat to be set correctly
If these conditions are met, the indicator LED of the energy probe 02960 will flash "slowly"
(1 flash every 2 seconds approximately).
The
measured power
is the value measured by the energy probe 02960; the value shown is the
sum of the (active) powers of all the active channels of the probe (eg, all 3 channels could be
active, or only channel 1 or channels 1 and 3, etc.).
The unit of measurement (W or kW) is displayed under the measured value.
• If the sum of the powers turns out to be
consumed
(i.e. absorbed by the energy supplier), the
value is
positive
and the generation/consumption indicator is off.
• If the sum of the powers turns out to be
generated
(for example, the photovoltaic system is
supplying power to the electricity grid), the value is
negative
and the generation/consumption
indicator is on.
When consulting the power/energy data, the "consumption log" view provides a rough estimate
of the consumption recorded in the last period. In particular, each horizontal group of dashes rep-
resents the year/month/day/hour depending on whether the word displayed is YEARS/MONTHS/
DAYS/HOURS respectively.
The current year/month/day/hour
is highlighted by the group of flashing dashes while the
previous
and the
next
are represented by groups of dashes shown respectively to the
left
and
right
of the flashing group.
