This chapter provides a brief description of each menu option listed in the menu bar (Figure 4). A more
detailed explanation for each menu is provided further on in this document.
Figure 4
HOME MENU
This menu has no real function other than providing a brief description of the web interface. This is the
default page when “Setup Mode” is entered.
CHANNEL OPTION MENU
This section is used to configure parameters that affect all 32 power monitoring channels such as:
System voltage setting
Channel polarity
System Frequency (50Hz or 60Hz)
System Type (Single or Three Phase)
These parameters should be the first ones to be set.
CHANNEL CT MENU
“CT” stands for “Current Transformer”. The CTs are the sensors used to monitor the current flow of
each load. There are many different CT models available depending on the load current and installation
type.
This section is used to inform the GEM as to the CT model connected to each individual channel. It also
serves to set other channel parameters when used for 3-phase monitoring.
TEMPERATURE MENU
If the installation uses temperature sensors, this section provides a means of configuring each sensor.
PACKET SEND MENU
A “packet” is a block of data representing up-to-date measurements of all channels. In a typical system,
the GEM is setup to send data updates to the hosting site, device or computer at a pre- determined
interval.
There are also different formats or structures for the packets depending on the requirements of the
data host system.
This section is where these parameters are set.
