Power Monitoring Expert (PME) Advanced ProgrammingClass/VILT Power Monitoring Expert (PME) Advanced Programming 8/16/2021  - 8/19/2021 4 Days Nashville (Franklin), TN / Virtual Classroom

Overview:
This advanced programming course focuses on system and device level customization using the Designer interface in PME software. Students will learn the architecture of the ION meter along with using the Designer interface to examine the default frameworks. Students will be guided through a series of lab activities to creating custom applications for equipment monitoring, alarming, and logging. Students will learn to program the Virtual ION Processor(VIP)for special applications such as data aggregation, logging, and alarming. Students will then have the opportunity to create a custom virtual meter framework by aggregating multiple meters in the VIP and displaying the real-time and historical information from that newly created meter in the Vista application. Students will learn the differences between the default meter templates and firmware versions that can be uploaded to devices and be able to describe each. At the end of the course, students will have created frameworks for integrating the several types of WAGES devices available and programmed frameworks that will perform process and control applications.



Who Should Attend:
This course is designed for anyone who works with a PME system and has reasonable knowledge of the default functions of ION meters and PME software. This course may be appropriate for meter/instrumentation technicians, system engineers and system integrators who need to learn how to get the most out of their PME software and associated meters.


Prerequisites:
    • Working knowledge of PME software, especially experience using Vista
    • Working knowledge of the default capabilities of ION meters
    • General computer skills and basic working experience with Microsoft Windows
    • Completion of a PME Fundamentals, Operation or Overview course is recommended

    Students Will Be Able To:
    • Describe ION architecture and ION module properties
    • Examine configuration of meters installed in a PME system
    • Understand the procedure to backup and restore a meter template

Power Monitoring Expert (PME) OperationClass/VILT Power Monitoring Expert (PME) Operation 9/27/2021  - 9/30/2021 4 Days Nashville (Franklin), TN / Virtual Classroom

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 as they are featured in this class as the extraction and analysis of data is paramount. Students will learn how to quickly extract and analyze data from their system using tools like the new Incident Alarm Viewer, Trends, Dashboards, Diagrams and Reporter. Utilize the web User Manager tool to add local users to PME. The course then moves on with an overview of one of the engineering clients, Management Console, to ensure the attendees understand how to add as well as remove devices from 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.



Who Should Attend:
