 | UMG 801 device integrationModular energy measurement device The UMG 801 modular energy measurement device is ideally suited for complete coverage of an energy management system (according to ISO 50001). Various communication interfaces and protocols (e.g OPC UA) enable direct and manufacturer-independent data transmission to higher-level systems, eliminating the need for costly integration. The measuring points can be subsequently extended to 92 measurement channels thanks to modular, easily integrated current measuring modules. In addition, remote measuring points can be connected with the 800-CON transfer modules. This allows you to bridge distances of up to 100 m using cabling.

| New device configurator and new device structure for modular measurement technologyConfigure and manage modular measurement units With GridVis® 7.4, you can now also easily configure and manage modular measurement units, such as the UMG 801 energy measurement device. The GridVis® device tree expands by one additional level, which is available for the modular subunits. The software thus provides a structured overview of the physical structure, and the required measurement data can be found quickly if required. The device configuration of GridVis® 7.4 has also been optimized for modular use and offers a new intuitive interface (example image).
| Configuration | Basic | 7.4.0 |
| Event browserProfessional tool for events and transients Short-term interruptions, overcurrents and transients can disrupt or even shut down electrical systems and electronic components. In case of an error, it is crucial to quickly and reliably locate the cause or source of the error. With Janitza measurement technology, combined with GridVis® software, all measurement data can be quickly retrieved and evaluated. The event browser also provides you with a quick overview of events, including the graphical evaluation of events and transients. Time correlations are immediately apparent and help with the analysis. Note: The event browser can be called up in GridVis Desktop and GridVis Energy. As of the “Professional” edition, a useful multiple selection of devices can be used.
| Events | Basic | 7.4.0 |
| Utilization reportKeep an eye on system utilization With the new utilization report, rated currents over the entire power supply with primary and secondary distributors are displayed and evaluated. The report displays the utilization of all selected measuring points in the previously selected period in tabular form in percentages and as an absolute value. Violations of limits, excessive capacity utilization and reserves are visible at a glance. The report allows you to freely configure related supplies so that redundant pairs or room totals can also be visualized.
| Data exports | Service | 7.4.0 |
| Active directory supportIntegrate user management into existing infrastructureActive Directory allows you to link GridVis® user management with the Windows user management. All users who have GridVis® access can log in with their Windows user name and Windows password. There is no need for having a double password. Administrators can centrally control roles (user right groups) in the Active Directory administration. | User management | Service | 7.4.0 |
| MSCONS data import expansionIntegrate load profile and meter measurement data With the data import expansion, MSCONS data can be imported into the database. Measurement data of the energy supplier can be monitored and can be compared or analyzed with your own measurement data. | Data import | Service | 7.4.0 |
