The Ener-Aid miniSCADA concept is a universal technology for collecting data from various sources and processing it uniformly. The software family is not only designed for metering devices (e.g., electricity meters) but also for handling IoT devices, efficiently processing provider files in formats such as xls, xml, csv, txt, and many other specialized tasks such as recognizing electronic invoices.
The Ener-Aid Meter Reading miniSCADA allows the meter reader to be integrated into higher-level data processing and analysis systems developed by third parties, using the open, standard interfaces of the meter reader.
Further analysis can be performed on the stored measurement data due to the modular expandability. The systems are capable of handling large amounts of data at both user and data levels, optimized for this purpose.
The program is based on Vision X10 Scada foundations, is device-independent (capable of working with any device communicating according to specified standards), and is a meter reading, configuring, and data collecting application that:
- Automates data collection from instruments with communication capabilities.
- Can validate and display collected real-time measurement data (even per second).
Helps manage measurement data from sub-meters of companies subject to sub-metering regulations much more easily.
The dashboards built into the Meter Reading miniSCADA product use the electrical measurement data stored in the system to display meter-by-meter comparisons and different resolution data summaries. They also perform continuous analysis of meter data based on various standards and regulations. For example, idle analytics, voltage analysis.
The Meter Reading miniSCADA can be modularly expanded with additional analytics elements. Since the electrical measurement system is already given, by specifying building parameters (area m2, air m3) and adding cooling-heating energy data, optimization analyses can be completed.
