ENERAL SPECIFICATIONS
PowerSoft is an analysis platform suitable for Win98, 98SE, 2000 and XP, which
has been specifically developed to interface, by means of the Modbus protocol
(RTU and TCP/IP), the Carlo Gavazzi products for Energy Management.
The system is composed by a main module (called “core”) and by a series of
modules, some of which are included in the base package (ordering code
“POWERSOFT”). The core module communicates with the instruments, shows
the real-time variables, and stores the acquired data in the system, while the other
modules tasks are to process the stored data, to analyse the acquired information, to
create reports.
In detail, the core:
provides the interactive and animated synoptic pages that allow:
o
to display the plant configuration
o
to display the real-time data
o
to monitor the digital input status acquired by the instruments
on the field
commands the instruments digital outputs, manually or
following an alarm situation
displays an alarm window that informs the user in case of set
point exceeding or communication errors
has 3 access level, protected through a password.
Every further operation is carried out through the optional modules. No
additional module is necessary for the core operations. The available optional
modules are the following.

Trends (analytical and graphical, included in the base package
“PowerSoft”):
A selectable set of variables (different from
instrument to instrument) can be stored in the PowerSoft database
with a selectable time interval. All the data can be analysed later on in
both graphical and analytical format and exported in various formats
