Sensors
Overview
All internal sensors are measured every 15 seconds. External sensors are measured every 15 to 30
seconds, depending on the number of devices connected. Sensor data collected by the unit gives useful
trend analysis data. While all values are not absolute in relation to a known unit, trend analysis of the
data allows users to view changes and draw useful conclusions about what is happening over time in the
monitored environment.
Internal Sensors
The POU contains the following onboard sensors:
Kilowatt-Hours: Cumulative sum of Real Power.
Volts: Measures instantaneous RMS voltage.
Volts (Peak): Reports the highest reported voltage since the last time the data was updated,
typically every 15 seconds.
Amps: Measures instantaneous RMS current.
Amps (Peak): Reports the highest reported current since the last time the data on the screen
was updated, typically every 15 seconds.
Real Power: Average of instantaneous voltage and current over the last 1.5 seconds.
Apparent Power: The product of instantaneous RMS Voltage and RMS Current. This is the
value used by circuit breakers.
Power Factor: The ratio of Real Power to Apparent Power.
Remote Sensors
Available Sensors
PVQ-EST-12: Environmental sensor: Temperature

Connecting Remote Sensors
Plug-and-play remote sensors may be attached to the unit at any time via the RJ-12 connectors on the
face of the unit. In some cases splitters may be required to add additional sensors. Each sensor has a
unique serial number and is automatically discovered and added to the web page. Up to sixteen sensors
may be connected.
The display order of the sensors on the web page is determined by the serial number of each sensor.
Friendly names for each sensor can be customized on the Display page.
Note: The sensor uses Cat. 3 wire and RJ12 connectors. Wiring must be straight-through: reverse
polarity will temporarily disable all sensors until corrected.
