Tag output of demand monitoring information

Demand monitoring information output tag

Information related to demand monitoring, such as the demand alarm detection status and previous demand value, can be output to tags.

The tags to which various information will be output can be specified from the demand monitoring settings screen.

 

In the sample standard project, the following tags are already registered. These tags can be used for logging and aggregation of demand history (summary action "DemandSummary"), or for monitoring alarms in conjunction with Alarm server.

 

p_demand_0024

 

Registered unit: DEMAND

Type: Memory device

 

The following tags are registered under the F01 folder.

 

Name (tag name)

device

Intended Use

ALARM1

 

Bit Tag

When the demand forecast value exceeds the primary alarm setting threshold, this tag turns ON. This tag is specified as the alarm output tag on the demand alarm setting screen.

 

p_demand_0026

 

If you want to monitor alarms, register this tag in the alarm master.

 

ALARM2

 

Bit Tag

Ditto. Secondary warning above.

 

ALARM3

 

Bit Tag

Ditto. Tertiary alarm as above.

PAST1

 

Numeric Tags

Past demand values (previous demand) are stored. This tag is specified as the value storage tag on the Past Demand Display Settings screen.

 

p_demand_0025

 

hint

In a standard project, the last value of the previous demand stored in this tag is set to be logged and aggregated by the "DemandSummary" summary action, and is used as information for the demand history and demand report.

 

PAST2

 

Numeric Tags

Same as above. The demand value from two times before last is stored.

ESTIMATE

 

Numeric Tags

The forecast value for the current demand cycle is stored. This tag is specified as the forecast value output tag on the demand detailed setting screen.

 

p_demand_0027

 

RESET

 

Bit Tag

This tag turns ON when the demand cycle is reset. This tag is specified as the reset output tag on the demand detailed settings screen.

 

p_rep_0076

 

CURRENTVALUE

 

Numeric Tags

The current value of the current demand cycle is stored. This tag is specified as the current value output tag on the demand detailed setting screen.

 

p_demand_0028

 

 

 

hint

When you add configuration items to your demand monitoring settings, please also add the above tag registrations.

 

Example: If you set four alarms on the alarm setting screen, register ALARM1 to ALARM4.

 

 

hint

If the number of metering points to be monitored for demand increases, you will need to register multiple demand actions. In that case, copy and use the above folder "F01". For example, if you need a second demand monitor, add a "DEMAND.F02" folder and copy the tags in the F01 folder as is, and set them as output tags from the settings screen of the added demand action.
