Abstract
Abstract of the Disclosure The invention relates to a system of real-time management of a continuous flow commodity such as electricity. Where an installation is the subject of a metered supply of the commodity the system provides means for configuring a computer monitoring the use of various sub-use equipment and to generate report information in conjunction with background data. The computer may be configured in various manners at the choice of the operator to provide the report data or to directly control the operation of the sub-use equipment. The background data may be generated from preceding monitored data and/or from equipment characteristics such as power factors, and/or from variable charging rates from the supplier, etc.
Description
`^ 2~28~
:
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~
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.

2~28~93 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 .. . . . , . , - . . ,. ~ . ~ ,. j . , - .. . .
`;~ 2028~93 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 l~;

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 ; :

Figure 1 is a block diagram showing one basic layout of 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 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.
