EnerVista Software

EnerVista Launchpad is a powerful software package that provides users a platform to access all of the setup and support tools needed for configuring and maintaining GE Vernova’s Multilin products. Launchpad allows configuration of devices in real-time by communicating using RS232, RS485, Ethernet, or modem connections. Using Launchpad as the single interface to the setup and analysis software makes it simple to enter setpoints, read metered values, monitor status and evaluate power quality. Included in Launchpad is a document archiving and management system that ensures critical documentation is up-to-date and available when needed by automatically checking for and downloading new versions of manuals, applications notes, specifications, and service bulletins.

Viewpoint Monitoring

Viewpoint Monitoring is a simple-to-use, full-featured monitoring and data recording software package for small systems. Viewpoint Monitoring provides a complete HMI package that instantly puts critical real-time device data on your PC through pre-configured graphical screens with the following functionality.

• Plug-&-Play Device Monitoring
• System Single-Line Monitoring & Control
• Annunciator Alarm Screens
• Trending Reports
• Automatic Event Retrieval
• Automatic Waveform Retrieval

EnerVista Integrator

EnerVista Integrator is a toolkit that allows seamless integration of GE Vernova Multilin devices into new or existing automation systems by sending GE Vernova device data to HMI, DCS, and SCADA systems. Included in EnerVista Integrator is:

• OPC/DDE Server
• GE Vernova Multilin Drivers
• Automatic Event Retrieval
• Automatic Waveform Retrieval

• RS485 Modbus Protocol up to 57.6K Baud
• Optional upgrade from serial to Ethernet communications for simplified LAN integration and multi-point connectivity
• 3 Line .56" Bright Red LED Display
• Front IRDA Port laptop communication

Unique Current Input Connections

EPM 6000 meter uses a two current input wiring methods.

• Method One - CT pass through. Directly pass the CT through the meter without any physical termination on the meter. This insures that the meter cannot be a point of failure on the CT circuit. This is preferable to utility users when sharing relay class CTs. No Burden is added to the secondary CT circuit.
• Method Two - Current “Gills.” The meter additionally provides ultra-rugged termination pass through bars allowing the CT leads to be terminated on the meter. This also eliminates any possible point of failure at the meter. This method is also a preferred technique for ensuring relay class CT integrity does not get compromised. No terminal blocks are required and this stud based design ensures that CTs will not open under a fault condition.

Multilin Meter Enclosure

The EPM 4600 enclosure provides a cost-effective, low commissioning effort solution with the EPM 4600 meter and component factory prewired, tested and configured greatly reducing facility and integration effort. Operator safety and ease of maintenance is provided through the NEMA 1 rating which houses standard components such as voltage fuses and shorting blocks for current transformers. The enclosure solution will work directly with 120/208 and 277/480 Volt power systems.

The enclosure can be ordered with single or three-phase configurations as per the EPM 4600 meter configuration along with the EPM 4600 supported communications (Ethernet, Serial). Optional BACnet®* and LonWorks®* enclosure protocol add-ons enable the EPM 4600 to integrate seamlessly into new and existing Building/Energy Automation Systems (BMS).

Finally the enclosure is equipped with either a user friendly, prewired and configured 3.5” or 5.7” color touchscreen display easing startup and ongoing monitoring. The display provides extensive circuit data for every load, including circuit analysis.
