NEW PQSCADA Release

FEATURING

Enhanced Security Protection:

·         System Encryption:  PQSCADA V4.1 & later versions supports the SSL protocol (Secure Socket Layer) for enabling secure, encrypted communication between PQSCADA Management Studio and Investigator which are both client software, and the PQSCADA Server.

·         Security Administration: This newly added module of the PQSCADA will allow you to manage & secure your PQSCADA server by permitting / denying users to perform certain actions within the PQSCADA.

Automatic Generic Updates:

·         Device Firmware & Configuration Update Task:  This task will allow you to you to automatically update all your BLACKBOX Unit(s) via the PQSCADA with any Firmware / Configuration files.

Multiple Local / Remote Server Support:

·         Multiple Server Support:  The new PQS Management Studio version is able to manage & control several servers, as opposed to a singular server support.  In addition, Management may also occur to a remote server & is not necessary restricted to a local server.

Comprehensive Parameter Calculations

Extended support per latest IEC61000-4-30 Class A calculation method revision. Many new parameters, averaged intervals, and more:

·         Cycle by Cycle Group Calculations:  Cycle by Cycle Frequency & Power ( Harmonics Only & Fundamental Only has been added to the previous calculation Fundamental Including Harmonics)

·          IEC61000-4-30:  Calculations are based on 10/12 Cycle, 3 sec. aggregation, 10 min. aggregation & 2 hours aggregation

·         Group Statistics:  Frequency Statistics, THD Statistics, RMS Statistics, Active Power Statistics, Reactive Power Statistics & Apparent Power Statistics

We recommend that you not upgrade to PQSCADA version 4.1.0.35 unless you also upgrade the INVESTIGATOR to version 4.1.0.25!!! This new PQSCADA version communicates with a different protocol which is only supported from INVESTIGATOR 4.1.0.25 and up.

ALL NEW BLACKBOX DEVICES WILL NOW BE SUPPLIED WITH THESE LATEST VERSIONS

 

NEW Investigator Release

 FEATURING:

  • Generate Reports:  With this new feature, you may now select a report type, define its time period, and customize the report according to a given set of parameters. The report types available are:
    • NRS Power Quality Report (South-African Standard) with output options of HTML or PDF
    • Chinese based Power Quality Standard Report (EXCEL)
    • Parameter Trend Report per event
    • Compliance Report – Power Quality compliance report based on the G4K compliance configuration
  • PQZIP Enhancements:  User must change Record type in PQZIP Recording to PQSCADA 4.1.0.35
    • Entire IO module ports recording While in previous versions, only Digital inputs were recorded in PQZIP, now also Digital output Relays, Analog Input and Outputs are recorded; VDC in PQZIP (G4500) is also supported.
    • User parameters The user can add his own parameters to PQZIP (up to 32 different parameters). Usage: The user write values via MODBUS registers and these registers are being continuously recorded as part of PQZIP and viewable in the PQS/INV in paralleled to the power parameters for easier investigation.

NEW BLACKBOX FIRMWARE

 
FEATURING
  • Advanced Instrument Settings:  This feature allows the user to configure the Current Transformer Ratio & Nominal Settings for each channel individually.
  • Multi I/O Analog Output Application:  The user can now assign measured parameters to each Analog Output.
  • Device Configuration FILE:  Based on XML file. Under device CF. Enables user to manage configuration via files (BACKUP, MODIFY). 
  • MODBUS-RTU, MODBUS-TCP and DNP3:
    • Harmonic & Inter-Harmonics Display at 5 Hz, from DC to 1,275 Hz
    • Read multi-parameters in a single request & faster 
  • Customized User Parameters:
    • Unique Customization:  32 Different individual customized parameters can now be individually set & defined by the user.
    • MODBUS Registers: Integration of additional MODBUS registers that are being continuously recorded as part of PQZIP and viewable in the PQS/INV.  With the integration the user can view all the MODBUS values, including a wide variety of existing power parameters.
  • The Advanced Supervision Reset for External Modem/Router: This feature enables the device to RESTART (turn power OFF/ON) an external modem/router should it detect no-connectivity. It prevents “remote communication stack” in case the modem software becomes stacked. The reset function is configurable to pulse supply voltage via POE (LCD ETH PORT). 
  • POE Powering New HW Module [POE to 5V/12V Supply box] that can operate external modems requiring 5 or 12V.
