Grid Example
This example populates a Grid object that lists real energy consumption and cost per
meter. The Grid object is configured with four columns, headed ‘Meter’, ‘Actual
Consumption’, units, and ‘Actual Cost’.
Sub Main()
'declarations omitted
...
'object creation and configuration omitted
...
For Each meter In Report.Meters
actualConsumption = meter.Total(ValueType.RealEnergyNet)
actualCost = meter.CostAllocate("Electric Billing Report",
"Electric Cost Allocation")
row = grid.AddRow()
row(0) = meter.Name
row(1) = actualConsumption
row(2) = Functions.GetUnit(ValueType.RealEnergyNet)
row(3) = actualCost
Next meter
Trend Chart Example
This example populates a TrendChart object configured to chart real energy consumption
by group per week. A separate trend line is plotted for each group.
Sub Main()
'declarations omitted
...
'object creation and configuration omitted
...
For Each group In Report.Groups
trendChart.SeriesLegend = group.Name 'assigns the Group name
to the data series
For Each week In Report.Weeks
consumption = group.Total(ValueType.RealEnergyNet _
week.StartDate, week.EndDate)
trendChart.AddData(week.EndDate, consumption) 'assigns data
for the current data series
Next week
trendChart.NextSeries() 'adds a new data series to the trend
chart
Next Group
The CostAllocate method of the Meter and Group objects
requires specific rate schedule configuration.
