Watts Up? Power Analyzers
Watts Up?
The Standard model measures voltage and current thousands of times a second so it has an incredibly fast response time which enables you to "see the surge" of power when appliances are first turned on. The peak value display captures this surge so it is displayed even if it happens too fast to see live. The minimum RMS voltage display shows the line quality and voltage dips. Minimum RMS current and minimum watts can be used to monitor variances in appliances that run continuously.
Watts up? measures true power (including power factor). True power is what utilities charge for, which can be different than a simple voltage and current measurement (this is called "apparent power"). The duty cycle display shows the percent of time a load is above a preset threshold level. For instance, this threshold can be set to 100 watts and with a refrigerator the duty cycle display will show the percent of time that the compressor is running. A high reading may indicate a bad motor or low freon.
Watts up? .Net
Internet enabled AND power switching! With all the capabilities of the Standard Version, the .Net goes even further. Ideal for remote monitoring, the built-in web server allows data to be accessed via the internet. Connect the meter to the public internet (via home or office network) and the meter will automatically output data. The meter is now also integrated to Google PowerMeter so you can see your data on your Google home page. You'll be able to see the live data in table format or graphical. The data can also be downloaded as a csv file. The meter can send data as fast as every second. Connect a wireless adapter (for example the Dlink DWL-G730AP or the TrendNet TEW430APB, both configured in client mode) into the meter's ethernet port, and the meter can be used wirelessly.
In addition, the .Net introduces active energy savings. With an internal switching relay, the .Net can turn off power to the end load based on user configurable rules. Rules can be based on single or multiple meters. These rules and their associated application include:
When using the .Net on a private network, be aware that the meter sends and receives data over port 80 but it can't output web pages. It is possible to assign the meter a static IP address, but it is not possible to enter that address into a web browser and communicate directly with the meter as many routers and modems do for configuration purposes. The data packet the meter sends is a raw data string and needs to be parsed and formatted. Our API specifies the format. Therefore, a web server application is typically used to collect the data and subsequently format the information.
Normally, the .Net ships with the same memory as the PRO ES. The .Net is also available with double the memory with a purchase of 500 meters or more at one time. More memory is ideal for applications requiring logging for long periods of time.
