Recording Harmonics
There are three primary recording types for harmonics in PMI recorders: stripcharts, daily profiles, and waveform capture harmonic analysis. Each of these has specific pros and cons, and setup considerations…
Exporting Harmonics with the ProVision Bulk Export Tool
Harmonic stripcharts can generate huge amounts of data. When using harmonic data outside of ProVision (for computing system-wide TDD, comparison with other data sources, etc.), a way is needed to…
Spot Sags, Loose Neutrals, THD, and More with Custom Graphs
Finding voltage sags, loose neutrals, THD correlations, and other PQ problems in a mountain of recorded PQ data can be time consuming at best. The ProVision Custom Graph Wizard lets…
Boomerang DNP3 Point Map 2.0
The Boomerang family of wireless voltage, current, and power monitors supports the DNP3 protocol for monitoring and control of a Boomerang when used as a DNP3 outstation. The original Boomerang…
SNTP Configuration for the Revolution
PMI's Revolution power quality recorders are available with Ethernet/networking capabilities which are easily configurable to allow quick connection and communication over a company's network. One of these network capabilities is…
Net Metering in ProVision
ProVision offers a wide variety of reports and graphs for displaying various types of power quality data. One of these is the power consumption report. Newly added to this report…
In Place Updating with ProVision
ProVision, the power quality data analysis software provided by PMI, is constantly modified to meet the changing needs of engineers and technicians, and to ensure compatibility with other hardware and…
Using Loss of Periodic Load to Trigger Email Alerts
Boomerang triggering mechanisms are most often used for voltage monitoring, detecting overcurrent/high load conditions, or complete loss of load. However, the advanced triggering features in the Boomerang allow for more…
Upgrading from WinScan to ProVision
As hardware improvements are made over time, the software that communicates with and controls that hardware must also evolve. Improvements in hardware, operating systems and most importantly, user feedback all…
Separating Transmission vs Distribution Events with Canvass
The combination of Canvass and Boomerangs strategically placed in a distribution system allows for a unique system-wide analysis of voltage trends. Analyzing voltage data from multiple locations in parallel reveals…
Threshold Configuration Settings in Canvass
The settings configuration window is a new feature in PMI's Canvass web software. It allows the user to set thresholds for each channel and measure supported by the recorder. When…
