KenN Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 Soooo ... playing around tonight, and I discovered that if I click on the little tool symbol to the top right of a device pane on the dashboard, then select the "Device Properties", a window opens up with the normal slider bars for setting device up (brightness, ramp rate). But there's also a whole subsection called "Power Management" with settings for device type, device load in watts and duty cycle. I entered known loads for a couple of lights and saved, the system retains the info, but ... how can I use this? It doesn't seem to tie into anything that I can use through the ISY admin console, eg. in a program or through the power management interface. This seems to have fantastic possibilities, as I'm focusing a lot on reducing energy consumption. Is this something I can use to trigger load shedding or is it a work in progress?
Michel Kohanim Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 Hi KenN, Those values are not work in progress and are actually used if you have: Smart Meter and are sent a Demand Response event Using OpenADR and are sent a Demand Response event With kind regards, Michel
