Demand Screen
Demand is a measure of average power consumption over a fixed time interval.
Peak (or maximum) demand is the highest demand level recorded during a billing
period. From the Demand screen, you can configure Rolling Block (the interval
used to compute your values) and Demand Forgiveness (the time during power
restoration when demand is not calculated).
With Rolling Block (or Sliding Window) Demand, demand is measured based on
the average load level over the most recent set of sub-intervals. The Rolling Block
tab allows you to define the number and length of intervals used for demand
calculations.
Demand Forgiveness is the time, programmed in the meter, during which demand
(and therefore peak demand) will not be calculated following a total power outage.
During power-up following a complete power outage, customer equipment
consumes a higher-than-normal amount of power. The Demand Forgiveness
feature lets a utility forgive the customer for peak demand penalties that may arise
from power-up following a power outage.
Input / Output Screens
The following sections outline the screens available for I/O configuration.
The available screens vary depending upon the model and firmware of your connected device. See your
device documentation for specific information on configuring inputs and outputs.
