Overview:

This 4-day overview course focuses on the what, how and why to use an EcoStruxure Power Monitoring Expert system. Students will be exposed to power monitoring fundamentals in order to set a baseline for class. Students will practice using PowerLogic and ION meter front panels to verify the configuration of devices that already exist in the system. In a hands-on lab environment, students will use the web applications offered in PME to extract and analyze the data coming from connected devices. Students will learn how to quickly examine data from their system using tools like Dashboards, Reports, Trends, Alarms, and Diagrams. The course then moves on with an overview of one of the engineering client tools, Management Console, to ensure the attendees understand how to add new devices to the PME system. The course concludes with a round-robin session to ensure that students "take away" one tangible item they will do when they get back to their location and their PME system.
