Creating Energy Meters for CompactLogix Devices
You will now create energy meters for a CompactLogix (L2x)
controller analog or digital inputs.
For the Efficient Industries Plant 1 example, you will create
energy meters for one L2x digital input and three L2x analog
inputs.
Create Energy Meters
Follow these steps to create an energy
meter for an L2x digital or analog input.
1. Click the Meters tab.
2. Navigate to and select a group to
assign the meter.
For this example, select Fuels
under Engineering.
3. Click the Meters tab.
4. Click Add a new meter.
5. Choose the Parent group.
For this example, choose Fuels.
If the meter type you want to use is not
in the standard list of meter types, you
can create custom meters. Refer to
Appendix A .
6. Choose the meter type.
For this example, choose Gas.
7. Choose the device associated with the
meter.
For this example, choose L2x.
8. Enter a meter name.
For this example, enter Boiler House
Gas Meter.
9. Click Save.
