SETTINGS 5.3.6 License One license is used for each sensor and digital input. The license continues to be assigned for a sensor in Retired state, i.e. which only exists to display historical data. When a sensor is added, a check is made whether there is a free license. Deleting a sensor will not result in a refund of fees. However, the assigned license is released and can be used for a new sensor. Overview of license information Basic License 50 sensors 5 ADD LICENSE Add additional sensor licenses. Procedure 1. The customer requires additional sensor licenses and reports this requirement to ELPRO-BUCHS AG (Sales), specifying the server license key. 2. The sensor license key is sent to the customer by reply. 3. The customer reads the sensor license key in elpromonitor. 4. elpromonitor decodes the sensor license key and licenses the additional number of new sensors. SM3032E elpromonitor Setup - Import File REMOVE Only active for sensor licenses which utilize less than the maximum number of licensed sensors. This function clears the sensor license in the memory and in the database, and updates the sensor license list. elpromonitor EN - 31

DATA EVALUATION 6 Data Evaluation elpromonitor has a number of functions to analyze logged measurement values. 6.1 Chart 6 Evaluation Default of time range of logged data contained in the chart. You can zoom the displayed range by limiting the time range. NEXT PREVIOUS SHOW Permits up and down scrolling page by page in the logged data. The time range displayed with "From:... To:" is shown. The sensor data in the measurement value chart above are taken from the Office group: Local Humidity, Local Temperature, Meeting Room T1, and Meeting Room T2. Select the curve: Local Temperature (green) to highlight it and then use the cursor to measure it. elpromonitor EN - 37

DATA EVALUATION Details Below the chart, detail information is provided for every sensor in the form of a list and an event report. This information always corresponds to the displayed time range. Details on the Local Temperature Sensor chart 6 Error Message Event Report A maximum of 2 different measurement value units and a maximum of 25 sensors can be displayed. 6.1.1 Zoom Drag the mouse pointer across part of the chart to display this section in enlarged form. Manual zoom 38 - EN elpromonitor

DATA EVALUATION Zoomed section 6.1.2 Invalid Measurement Values No Connection and Sensor Failure The chart does not display invalid measurement values. The curve is interrupted (gap). 6 elpromonitor EN - 39

DATA EVALUATION EXPORT The logged measurement value data can be exported in tabular form. 6 Example: Export 40 - EN elpromonitor

DATA EVALUATION 6.2 Statistics This information always corresponds to the displayed time range. Range The evaluation range always corresponds to the time range shown in the chart. Average Lowest/Highest Value The minimum/maximum values measured in the corresponding time range is determined. MKT Mean Kinetic Temperature See related technical literature for information on the theory of MKT calculation. 6.3 elpromonitor Sensor Analysis Report The Sensor Analysis Report contains an overview chart on Page 1, followed by measurement value charts and event data for each sensor. This report treats sensors and digital inputs with equal weighting, i.e. the size (number of pages) of the sensor analysis report generated as a *.pdf file is dependent on the number of sensors and digital inputs.

ANNEXES 7.2 Glossary Analysis Logging Interval I/O modules Pending Profile Set Recipient Profile Retired Sensor Failure Statistics Time Zone Cycle Analysis of data, statistics, MKT elpromonitor logging interval Cannot be changed at a later date for evaluation reasons. This parameter is defaulted individually in the "Settings" window for each sensor (sensorspecific). This interval has no impact on datalogger logging intervals. 1-60 cycles I/O modules are ECOLOG-NET dataloggers (LH2, LP4, LA8, LR8) and the alarm interface. Not yet processed. A profile set contains a digital input profile and a recipient profile. A digital input profile defines which conditions (measurement value, contact input) generates an alarm. The recipient profile defines who is alerted in case of an alarm and how.

The measurement signal fails to correspond to a possible measurement value. For example: Short-circuit in cable between I/O module and sensor The measurement value statistical data are always calculated for the time range shown. All time values are saved in the database as UTC. Users may select a time zone under "User Settings". All time values are displayed with this time zone.
