PQSCADA/Investigator Key Features & Benefits
 Auto reports generation: Automatic reports are generated through the
pre-defined Tasks functions that allow you to set regularly scheduled
exports – COMTRADE, PQDIF, and/or reports – PDF, EXCEL,
HTML according to a specified event or time trigger (monthly, daily,
weekly, and fixed).
 Automatic Notification: Three possible notification possibilities: email,
SMS, and Pop-Ups. The notification is triggered by events by pre-
defined or user defined electrical events.
 Analyze the data: Using a series of views to see different aspects of it,
including summaries, trends, spectral of Volt/Amps/Hz, events,
harmonics, THD, Flicker, power and energy.
 Multiple device synchronization: Elspec’s Investigator allows you to
view multiple devices synchronized in time. You can adjust the data
shown by turning on and off display of different devices and select other
parameters. You can focus on the specifics that help you analyze and
understand the power quality data.
 Generate reports: the Investigator software application builds reports
based on EN 50160 and other specific national standards. Additional
standards templates can be modified upon request.
 Organized Data: by establishing a Node/Site all devices are mapped on
the tree structure for easy navigation and orientation of the recorded
data.
