Monitoring energy in a
networked world
The Power Xpert Gateway PDP
card (PXGX PDP) is the primary
data acquisition solution for
Eaton power distribution units
(PDUs) remote power panels
(RPPs), rack power modules
(RPMs), power distribution
racks (PDRs), and energy
management system upgrade
kits (EMSs). Data from the
downstream devices are time
stamped and stored in non-
volatile memory. This interval
data can be stored or uploaded
to a destination of the user’s
choice through CSV files. Data
can also be accessed through
any Web browser directly on
the PXGX PDP down to the
individual breaker level. Users
can view data in Power Xpert
Software, BMS, NMS, building
dash boards, custom software
applications, or virtually any
Web interface.

works with the PXGX PDP to
allow quick and easy views of
energy usage and comparison
data. Yes, the data is available
via a CSV file, however this tool
doesn’t require a Microsoft

Excel
®
spreadsheet expert.
Simply select the energy param-
eters you’re interested in track-
ing, and click! It automatically
displays energy usage sum-
mary information in both tabular
and graphical format. You can
even compare the energy data
from two devices from any IP
address, anywhere in the world.
