This invention relates to a user-
configurable sy~tem for monitoring the use of a
~ontinuous ~upply commo~ity such as olectricity ~n B
use establishment having a plurality o eguipment
tappinq into the ~upply. ~he invention also relates
to a monitoring system including control of the
equipment in response to monitore~ data.

.

The supply of a continuous supply commodity
such as electricity to an establishment ii normally
metered at the point of entry to the establishment by
the supply company and fre~uently this is the only
metering or any form of monitoring which is
performed. Exceptions to this generalization are when
the primary occupant ~ub-contracts space and equipment
and inserts a sub-meter into a supply line for the
sub-contracted entity. It is believed that in all
cases any meters or sub-meters are simple meters
simply recording the total amount of commodity used.
When the price of the commoaity varies with the time
of day, the port of entry meters are sufficiently
sophisticated to record this data which is normally
read off in intervals for the purpose of accounting.
At any point downstream of the meter, that is, within
the uie establishment or sub-establishment there has ~~
not been available any means for the user to have
real-time data at hand at any one time to allow him to
adjust his usage of the commodity.
Thus, e~ample of extreme simplicity, while ~ -

~ 202~09~

-- 2 --

the user may know the power rating of his domestic
appliances, he cannot know, without preliminary
calculation, the cost of boilinq a kettle a) in a peak
charging rate, b) in cheaper charging rate, an~ c) m
partially in each rate. As ~cale builds up in the ~-
kettle, the calculation becomes impossible. Moreover,
the accurate data is not available in real-time at any
instant during the ope~ation. If the establi~hment is
a commercial operation, for example, an office block
whose tenants are charged a fee inclusive of the
commodity, or industrial plant or machinery with a
plurality of independently or semi-independently
operable integers, it miqht be possible to
considerably affect cost control, by real-time
monitoring of the power draw of various equipment.
The only such attempts to approach this
subject have been rigid non-configurable systems
designed for specific monitoring of particular
equipment for particular purposes. ~-~
It would, however, be clearly desirable for i~
any larger user of a commodity to have available means
to monitor his various equipment in real-time whereby
he may make immediate adjustment control to running to
control cost. Moreover, it would be advantageous to
have such adjustment control be automatically
performed. The monitor means should not be so rigid
that it is specific to a single installation but it
should be adaptable to a wide range of equipment and
conditions and might forecast desired adjustment on -
the basis of past events, immediate real-time
situations, changing conditions such as charging
rates, cost effectiveness of new or alternative
eguipment, etc.

It is such a user-configurable system that
the inventors in the present case have aimed to devise.
Accordingly, the invention proYide~ a
user-configurable ~ystem for real-time monitoring, in
the operation of an equipment, the operation of ~
plurality of sub-use ~quipment of a continuous ~upply ~ -
commodity, comprising; monitor means stationa~le at
each sub-use equipment and adapted to collect -
commodity consumption data relating to the use of the
commodity at each respective sub-use eguipment;
connection means interfacing each monitor means with a
computer to transmit data from each sub-use equipment
to the computer configuration means to selectively
configure the computer to process the data from each
sub-station in conjunction with at least one selected
set of background data to generate report data at
output port of the computer; selection means
responsive to operator choice adapted to select at
least one set of background data; and display means
for the report data.
It may ~e possible for the operator to
physically manually adjust operation of at least one
sub-use eguipment in response to the report data or - -
the system may be provided with means for
automatically making such adjustment.
The background data may be selectable from
preceding transmitted data, or the background data may
be selectable from data bases of previously selected
material, or a combination may be used.
Where the background data is previously
transmitted data, it may be divided into sections
corresponding to consecutive equal time intervals.
Data from at least one of these preceding time

` 2~28~93


intervals as background ~ata for transmitted data
during a current time interval to provide report aata
for the current time interval. Each time interval may
conveniently be ~ifteen minutes or in integr31
multiples of 5 minutes. The choice of time interval
is not critical and may conveniently be chosen in
accordance with sny monitoring periods set by the
commodity supplier. The time interval use~
background data may be, for esample, imme~iately
1~ preceding the current time interval.
Another manner of proviaing background data
from previously transmitted data is continuously. In
this case means may be provided to continuously
compare incoming current transmitted data and ~-~
continuously derive continuous background from
preceding transmitted data data to generate report
data.
When the background data i8 selectable from
a previously prepared data base, it may, for e~a~ple,
be a ~ystem in which the background data is selectable
from preceding transmitted data selected from the
group consisting of load prediction data, data
representing analog equipment data, graphic data
representing equipment status, load control data and ;
alarm data. ~
The background data may be selectable from ~ -
historical situation data, sub-use eguipment, by
keyboard input by the operator. The situation may be,
for esample, data relating to the performance of the ;
equipment such as eguipment load factor data,
coincident load factor data for more than one sub-use
equipment, load factor data at different cost charging - -
rates, demand data at different cost charging rates
over use periods ranging from 1 day to 1 month or more.
The background data may also or

alternatively comprise load analysis data, data
indicating a trend in load demand, data relating to
preceding alarm con~itions. It i~ to be ~ppreciated
that different esamples will assume importance for
different commodity ~upplies and ~ifferent desired
report or control data.
The system may aavantageously include
manually operable means for entering background data
for simulation of additional or repl~cement propo~ed
sub-use equipment.
The system may be set up in any suitable
desired manner. For e~ample, a single operator
stationed display terminal may be used or, to allow
for supervisory or other additional user access,
networked terminals or a multi-user system may be
used. Any suitable aids, such as printers, plotters,
etc., may be present. Any monitor should preferably
be a colour monitor. Since the computer may often be
processing several tasks simultaneously, it is
advantageous that the system be muiti-tasking. For
this reason, although the choice of operating system
is not critical, suitable operating systems may be
UNIX or QNX.
The invention also provides a system for
configuring a computer for the real-time monitoring of
a continuous supply commodity, in the operation of a
plurality of ~ub-use equipment interfaced with the
computer, comprising configuration means to
selectively configure the computer to process incoming
transmitted data from the Rub-use equipment in
conjunction with at least one ~et of background data
to generate report data; and ~election means
responsive to operator choice to select at least one
background data.
Still further, the invention provides a

method for real-time monitoring, in the operation of
~ an equipment, the operation of a plurality of sub-uæe
i equipment of a continuous 6upply commodity,
comprising; ~electively ~onfiguring the computer to
process data from each ~ub-u~e equipment in
conjunction with ~t least one set of background data
to generate report ~ata at an output port of the
computer; monitoring each sub-use eguipment and
collecting commodity consumption data relating to the
use of the commodity at each respective ~ub-use
equipment; transmittin~ the data from each ~ub-use -.::-
eguipment to the computer; selecting at least one set ; :
of background data; processing the data and background
data in accordance with the set configuration of the
computer; and displaying the report data. -~

An embodiment of the invention will now be
described by way of e~ample with reference to the . ~-
accompanying drawings, in which~
Figure 1 is a block diagram showing one
basic layout of equipment; -; .
~o Figure 2 is a tree diagram of one
embodiment of configuration means
for a computer to monitor sub-use :
equipment;


Embodiments of the invention will now be - :
described with reference to the monitoring of sub-use ~ :~
electrical e~uipment having regard for variables such
as peak-hour charging rates by the supply authority, .
the power factor of the sub-use equipment, and the

--` 2~280~


consumption of electricity. While the continuous
supply commo~ity will hereinafter be referred to as
electricity, it will be under~tood thst the invention
is equally applicable to the supply of other
commodities charged to the customer according to the
~mount usea.
Moreover, the usage of electricity will be
considered in connection with either large industrial
plant having various sub-use eguipment or in
connection with the management of supply to an office
block or other rental or multi-use building. Such
particularization is for the purpose of illustration
only and is to be regarded as in no way limiting.
Conventionally, for, say, an office block or
industrial plant, a single electricity bill is
rendered to the customer, i.e., the management company
or the industrial company, respectively. Thus, there
is no convenient way of knowing what proportion of the
charge is due to particular equipment or practices.
2C Figure 1 shows the general layout of equipment in a
system of the invention. A metering device connected
to a monitor panel 12 is connected into each circuit
of sub-equipment which it is desirea to monitor. The
metering device may be any suitable device but may ~ -
conveniently be one which generates digital pulses in
response to the rotation of a disc of a conventional
electricity meter. In any event, for ease of
operation with conventional microcomputer chips,
digital ~ignals should be derived from the metering
devices either directly or at monitor panels 12.
The number of monitor panels 12 present may
be dependent on the number of sub-use equipment it is
desired to monitor. In practical terms, a limit on
the number of panels 12 may be 256. For most
practical purposes, therefore, it may be assumed that

2~28093

-- 8 --

there will be capacity on the system for monitoring a -~
~ufficient number of sub-use equipment. -
The panels 12 are interfaced with a computer ~ -~
14 through a serial bus, ~uch as an R~422 bus, ~nd the
panels 12 may include load control devices.
~he computer 1~ may be a stsn~-alone
personal computer, or a server for a multi-user system --
communicating with terminals or a local or wide-area
network system of computeræ. Individual computer~ may -~
be networked through hardwiring or for communication
through modern links.
Each panel 12 may be located up to a
distance of 5,000 feet from computer 14. If a very
large plant is involved so that distances of more than
S,000 feet are necessary between a sub-use eguipment ~-
panel 12 and computer 14, then a line driver, such as --
a short-haul modem, may be used. ~-
Every terminal or computer 14 or the system
with the possible esception of a computer acting
solely as a server may be provided with at least one
of a monitor (preferably a colour monitor), a printer,
and a plotter for operator interface with the system. ~ ~-
As shown in Figure 1, a stand-alone computer 14 is ~ -
provided interfaced with a colour monitor 16, a
printer 18, a plotter 20 and a modem 22. Panels 12 -~
interface with computer 14 through an RS422 serial bus ~ ~-
24 through a line driver 26.
Configuration of computer 14 by an end-user,
i.e., an operator, 80 that it will select data in
respeGt of particular sub-equipment, maybe by means of
a suitable computer program. An esample of such a
program is set out in the tree diagram of Figure 2.
It may consist of a low-level configuration program
operating in the background and a real-time data
display program made up of, for esample, the

:- 2~2~093


27 modules shown. The low-level configuration program
(hereinafter referred to as ~OWCON) i& used to
configure the limits of the ~isplay program and the
display program permits selection ~y the operator,
through menus presented on the display w reen, of a
particular breakdown of ~elected information as
required.
Referring now to Figure 2, the esemplified
display program, allows the user access by means of
the parent module GO 2000 wbich startæ up the program
and loa~s the ne~t module which is MAIN 2000. GO 2000
may be replaced with any ~uitable AU~OEXEC program.
~IN 2000 checks that various ~pecial conditions such
as holiday and alarm conditions are inoperative, and
provides a shell for screen displays of menus.
Dependent upon MAIN 2000 is a shell for INT 2000 which -
sets up operator access to configuration and
introduces access to:

HOL~DAY - Set up and definition of holiday
dates

LAYOUT - Set up of display screens -
2000 CONF - Operator configuration of
input/output interface
HOLIDAY - Operator set up of holiday dates
LAYOVT - Operator set up of display screens

These modules allow the operator to
configure displays in the rest of the ~ystem for
greater utility and understanding of the gathered data.
MAIN 2000 also leads directly to PLOT 2000 ~ ;~
DUR 2000 and TRENDER ~ -
These modules provide for plotting of data
in various different formats. P~OT 2000 is a plot

`- 2~28093

- 10 - "'' -'''''

routine for displaying ~ingle power v. time curves and -
leads to subsidiary plotting modules. -

MULTIPLOT - Plot routine for displ~ying ---~
multiple power~time ~ata
PLOTPEAK - Plot routine for displaying ~ -
power~day data
PLOTKVAR - Plot routine for displaying
reactive power~time
PLOTXWHR - Plot routine for di~playing ;
energy/time
PLOTPF - Plot routine for displaying power
factor~time

These provide plotting of data in several ~ -
different formats.
DUR 2000 and TRENDER, respectively, are plot
routines for displaying duration-curves and on-line
trends.
MAIN 2000 leads directly to a third main -~
section relating to the display of resulting
information. Thus, immediately subsidiary to MAIN
2000 are PRINTOUT, which itself leads to REPORT and
through that to DISPLAY. These three modules -~
correlate the information (PRINTOUT), set it up for
reproduction (REPORT), and provide the display format ~ -
(DISPLAY).
In addition to these three basic sections,
any number of additional programs may be directly
appended to 2000 MAIN for customized or generalized
use.
Normally envisagea modules are those
indicated in Figure 2, as follows:

FACT 2000 - calculates data from variable

202~093



input, e.g., peak rates, kwh, etc.
CONTROL - predicts control a~justment
ALMLOUT - sets up screen paging and layout
alarms, alarms, etc.
PEAK 2000 - compares ba~e load characteri~tics
with peak load characteristics
6UM 2000 - summarizes data on continuing basis --
COIN 2000 - calls ~ata, e.g., consumption or
billing on a time basis, e.g.,
monthly, daily, stc. and predicts
results
COSTING - correlates use of sub-eguipment
with variables and predicts costing
UTILITY - manages interaction of the modules

In addition to the above modules 15 MIN, a
sub-program of PLOT 2000 sections preceding data into
15 MIN blocks for use in company with real-time -~
immediate data. This program may be replaced or
reinforced by programs designed for other time
intervals.
As a specific esample of the program layout
referred to briefly above, the Appendis hereto sets

out a practical implementation of such user
configuration means. The program of the Appendis is
written in Structured Basic and is intended for use
with QNX operatinq ~ystem. It includes a low-level
configuration program (LOWCON). ~OWCON may be use~ to
select the number of monitored panels on the system,
