Editing Systems

System Settings consist of four sections:

From left to right, the four sections are:

  • Devices

  • Information

  • Parameters

  • Users

Devices

In this section we select and edit the devices and variables linked to this System. Usually, the devices to include in a system are specific meters (production values) and weather stations (irradiance values).

Use the selector on the left-hand side to add specific devices and datasources to this System. All devices and variables currently included appear in the main grid to the right-hand side. Check the boxes to the right of any device or variable to select and remove it from the system. You can include all the datasources that you want to show at the System Level. Only the datasources included in the System are available for the configuration or parameters.
