Inline Monitor Settings

To edit a the settings for an Inline (Electricity) Monitor, navigate to the Devices Configuration plugin and choose the desired device from the list. A device type specific editor will open.

1. Device Label. Should be unique and descriptive for easy identification.
2. Sample Mode (advanced). Change the method used to sample data. NOTE: The default sample mode is COS and should not be modified unless instructed to do so. If set incorrectly, this setting can have a significant impact on system bandwidth and responsiveness.
   • Change of State (COS) only sends data when it detects a change in value.
   • Polled mode sends readings at a fixed interval.
3. Sample Mode Options (advanced). Options are presented based on the Sample Mode selected.
   • When Sample Mode is set to Change Of State, this specifies the minimum difference in wattage readings for a new data point to be recorded.
   • When Sample Mode is set to Polled, this specifies the period in seconds at which data points will be captured.
4. Sensor Label. A user defined label for identifying this sensor.
5. Sensor Inverted. Flip the polarity of your sensors (i.e. negative readings will become positive readings and vice-versa).
6. Current (A) Multiplier (advanced). An additional multiplier to be applied to your current reading.
7. Voltage (V) Multiplier (advanced). An additional multiplier to be applied to your voltage reading.
