Other Functions
This section describes the functions of the PowerMonitor 5000 unit. Most
functions require you to configure set-up parameters to align the unit with your
installation and your application requirements. The set-up parameters are listed
by name and described in this section. You can view set-up parameters by using
the PowerMonitor 5000 web page, and when logged in to an Admin account,
make changes to the setup. Set-up parameters are also accessible by using
communication.
Please refer to the Data Tables for additional information on setup parameters
including the following:
•
Range of valid values
•
Default values
•
Data type
Set-up parameters can be found in data tables with names beginning with
‘Configuration’, for instance Configuration.Metering_Basic.
Security
The PowerMonitor 5000 unit protects access against unauthorized set-up
changes through an account-based security system.
With security disabled, any application or web page user effectively has admin
privileges. We do not recommend operating the unit with security disabled
except during evaluation, testing, or initial setup.
Please refer to
Set Up Initial Security on page 48
for the procedure to enable
security if desired and set up one or more Admin class accounts for configuration
access from the Ethernet network.
