    Hi All,

    1. I am using the 'Load Monitor Total Energy' System IO variable in Schedule Plus to display "Total Power in use" in kW/hrs on my touch screens. I can also use 'Load Monitor Load Power' for individual CBUS group loads.

    Is there a way to group loads together for display for example Pool Power is Use, Lighting Power in use, Heating/Cooling power is use etc which would be a combination of several groups? Even being group usage by application eg. Heating, Lighting, Control, Irrigation etc would be helpful.



    2. Also, before buying some 3 x EN40Ps (or a three phase version perhaps??)....

    In NSW we get billed a different rate at different times of day by our Energy Australia Smart Meters. From memory 10PM-7AM is off peak, Shoulder is 7AM-2PM, Peak is 2PM-8PM. Shoulder again 8PM-10PM. In the Power Meter manager, there are multiple tariffs, but these relate to individual physical meters and there seems no time based tariffing though you can list usage by time. Is time based tariffing on the drawing boards or soon to be released?

    Thanks,

    Brad

    There is no in-built way of doing this. You could use logic to do it.
