On-Site / Internet / WAN Submetering

 

CaptureONE™ Software (CPO-1)

Excellent for all AMR SUB-METERING Applications

 

 

Description

CaptureONE Submetering Software provides a unique set of features for any submetering application.  The CPO single-site version (CPO-1) may be installed at the monitored site on any PC equipped with a serial port for connection to the CPO-RX wireless AMR receiver and a modem or Ethernet connection to a LAN/WAN/Internet for downloading meter data files for billing, cost accounting, customer support or other management purposes.

The CPO Corporate, multi-site version (CPO-1N) may be located at the owner’s corporate office.  In this case, Monitrol serial server or client software is located at the monitored site and all monitoring is in real-time via the network (Internet, LAN or WAN).

In addition to meter reading, data storage and transfer functions, the system monitors a group of alarm and status functions not normally available in automatic meter reading applications.  It also allows the user to add additional “alarm only” devices to the system and receive a variety of alarms via the metering system.

Alarms and status information is instantaneous and may be monitored by your own personnel or by Monitrol Utility / Alarm Central Station for a nominal monthly fee.

SYSTEM ALARMS

 

Device Case OPEN / RESET

Alarms on case being opened

Lower Count

Device has lower count than recorded to this point (indicates potential reset)

High Usage

Device has recorded higher usage than set in system for this device (can indicate a broken sprinkler head, etc)

Sequential Hours

Device has recorded continuous usage for a preset number of hours. This can indicate a running toilet or faucet.

No Usage

Each alarm type may be set for an alarm if no usage has occurred for a preset number of hours.  This could indicate a malfunctioning meter, a device wire cut, etc.

Missing Transmitter

Alarms if a device transmission has not been received for a preset supervision interval

Battery Low

Alarms if battery is low for a particular device

General Alarm

Devices may be defined as alarm devices.  In this situation, the actual count may or may not be relevant. These units could be connected to such things as boiler alarms, chiller/compressor lockouts, freezing temperature sensors, high temperature sensors, doors, windows, motion detectors, etc.
