4.2 Automated meter reading (AUT)
The automated meter reading feature delivers values every 24 hours or every 15
minutes (load profiles) for a detailed analysis of energy consumption.
EMC can handle data (consumption values, measured values, …) from different
systems. The integration options are as follows:
• Building automation and control systems (APOGEE Insight, DESIGO Insight,
SICLIMAT, ...)
• Third-party systems by automatic data import
• Third-party systems by web interface
Other connections (e.g. for SAP) can be provided on request.
All integrated products and systems transmit attributes relating to the quality of the
data. This enables unreliable values (e.g. from a faulty measuring sensor) to be fil-
tered out of the EMC reports.
Further, automatically imported values can be overwritten manually.
Automatically logged meter data is transmitted regularly. EMC monitors this proc-
ess. In the event of an error, the relevant user is notified by e-mail.
