Start the Energy Wizard Setup program, click on the large button 'Tag Set-up'. When the 'Tag Setup' form appears select the scan type 'Total - Recorder'. The following will be displayed.

The 'Total - Recorder' scan type enables an Energy Wizard Monitor Tag to be configured so that it reads the integrated data (kWhrs, cu.m etc) from the MicroScan2000 Recorder Line.

The Total input type is a value which would be supplied by a device which is capable of integrating the energy usage itself for each period. It is important to note that the PC clock and the device clock must be kept the same. Also the Total must be reset to zero at the start of each period.

• Tag Name: - Enter the name you wish to call the Tag into the text box.
• Tag Type: - Select the Tag Type from the combo box. For this set-up select 'Input - Energy Totalising'.
• Scan Type: - Select the Scan Type you require from the combo box. For this set-up select 'Rate - Recorder'.
• Supplier: - Select the default Supplier you require this Tag to be associated with from the combo box.
• Enable Tag: - Check the check box to enable this Tag.
• Recorder: - Enter the Recorder Number of the Line from where you wish to get the data into the text box. This should be a number from 1 to 5.
• Page: - Enter the Page Number of the Line from where you wish to get the data into the text box. This should be a number from 1 to 10.
• Line: - Enter the Line Number from where you wish to get the data into the text box. This should be a number from 1 to 10.
• Send Rate to Scada Tag: - The Energy Wizard Monitor calculates an instantaneous rate from the data received. This rate can then be sent to a MicroScan2000 Input Tag for display and recording purposes. To do this enter the appropriate MicroScan2000 Input Tag number between 1 and 1024. If you do not wish to send any data then set the text box to 0. The calculated rate may need smoothing in the form of averaging. To average the rate, adjust the selection: 'Recorder Display Type' on the 'General Tab' found in the 'General Set-up' form. If you increase the averaging in this option then you will increase the averaging (smoothing) of the rate that the Energy Wizard Monitor outputs to the MicroScan2000 Input Tag.
