NetPower DDE Server
DDE (Dynamic Data Exchange) is a communication protocol supported
within the Microsoft
®
Windows
®
operating environment that allows
cooperating Windows applications to share information. DDE
implements a client/server relationship between concurrently
running applications.
NetPower DDE Server is the PowerNet Software application that
acts as a DDE server to other DDE clients. NetPower DDE Server
accepts requests from DDE clients, then relays the requests to
the NetPower DeviceServer (or DeviceServers), using PowerNet
Protocol. When the NetPower DDE Server receives device data
from a NetPower DeviceServer, it uses the DDE link to send device
data back to the DDE clients.
NetPower Bill
NetPower Bill is a billing software package that generates bills for
energy consumers based on energy provider metrics (such as rate
schedules, rate periods and seasons) and energy user profile infor-
mation (such as group charges, individual charges, and individual
billing formulas).
NetPower Trend
NetPower Trend is a PowerNet Software application that graphically
displays energy data collected by the NetPower DeviceServer.
NetPower Trend plots energy utilization (by kilowatt-hours) or demand
(by kilowatts) over time. NetPower Trend can plot energy profiles of
loads or combinations of loads, which you can then save for viewing at
a later time.
NetPower Modbus Tools
NetPower Modbus Tools is a PowerNet Software application that is
used to define Modbus register mapping in NetPower DeviceServers.
A NetPower DeviceServer serves as an interface between a
Modbus Master and IMPACC devices, and supports a subset of
the standard Modbus serial protocol communication.
NetPower Monitor
NetPower Monitor is a PowerNet Software application used to
monitor and control devices on NetPower DeviceServers. With
NetPower Monitor, you can view all the detailed device information,
as well as a summary view of current and energy information and
device alarm information.
NetPower Waveform
NetPower Waveform is the PowerNet Software application that
allows you to command certain IMPACC devices to capture wave-
form data, to upload the waveform data from devices to a file, and
to view a graphical representation of waveform data.
NetPower Setpoints & Trip Curve
NetPower Setpoints & Trip Curve is a tool that allows you to
view setpoint data for each device connected to a NetPower
DeviceServer, change setpoint data for a device, and view the trip
curve for a device.
NetPower OPC Server
OPC (OLE Process Control) is an industry standard protocol for
communicating with multiple data sources, such as devices on a
factory floor or a database in a control room. OPC is supported by
Microsoft Windows. NetPower OPC Server acts as an interface
between the OPC protocol and the PowerNet protocol, enabling
Windows applications to receive data dynamically from IMPACC
devices and issue device commands. Windows applications act as
clients, sending and receiving data to and from the NetPower OPC
Server using the OPC protocol.
NetPower Event Viewer
NetPower Event Viewer is a PowerNet software application
used to view historical information collected by NetPower
DeviceServers, and merged into databases with PowerNet Tools.
Power Pager
Power Pager is a PowerNet Software application that allows any
pager to be configured and alerted when a value obtained through
Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE) violates a set of defined conditions.
If an on-alert condition occurs, Power Pager automatically dials the
configured pagers.
NetPower DDE Energy Logger
NetPower DDE Energy Logger is the PowerNet Software application
that facilitates logging of energy usage data from alternate sources.
NetPower DDE Energy Logger uses DDE connectivity to gather and
integrate energy data from third-party sources into the PowerNet
System. The NetPower DDE Energy Logger application utilizes the
industry standard Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE) protocol to
exchange information with a target DDE Server.
