6.3 Viewing Communication Status and Statistics
Ensure that the On-line button on the Power Software toolbar is checked,
select Device Control from the Monitor menu, and then click on the
Communications tab.
Figure 6-4: Device Control Dialog Box – Communications Tab
This window indicates the present GPRS communication status (see
Setting Up GPRS Network in Chapter 5) and connection statistics of the
TCP clients (see Setting Up eXpertPower Client and Setting Up TCP
Notification Client in Chapter 5).
To clear the communication counters, click on Clear.
You can also clear the communications counters via the Power Software
Reset dialog (see Resetting Accumulators, Maximum Values and Files).
6.4 Remote Relay Control
You can use Power Software to send a remote command to your meter to
operate any relay output or release a latched relay, except of the relays
linked to an internal pulse source. These relays are blocked for operating
from outside of the meter.
To access the relay control dialog, ensure that the On-line button on the
Power Software toolbar is checked, select Device Control from the Monitor
menu, and then click on the Remote Relay Control tab.
