Measured power data DCO

Hello

I have some cabinets that do not show their measured load, the query is how long it takes to capture their measured data.

Please clarify interpretation of these data, I describe screens.

image 1
- It is observed that in the power limit, declared value 5kw.
- And in the bar graph it shows value 8 (red circles).
Likewise, the value of measured data does not display its real values (orange circle)

image 2
- It is observed that in this image, if it shows its values, which coincide both in its power limit values (declared value 10kw) and in the bar graph value it shows 10 (red circles). Likewise the value of measured data if captured.

Regards 

Caroll

Like how you have to do the mouse hover to get that info? No other way that I can find in DCO. Seems silly.

I'm sorry, I thought I had formulated the consultation well; Finally, my client asks me to absolve this doubt that he does not take measured data.

Hi Caroll,

If DCO should have the measured data (from DCE), then the associated device should show the measurements right away. If you've just added a device (such as rack pdu) in DCE, then within a 5 min. time (depending on setup) DCO may get the power info (from DCE).

If you/customer do not see measurements on some racks/rack-pdu's, I guess:

rack-pdu perhaps is not associated yet. If associated already, then try right-click on the device (rack pdu) > Properties > External Systems > Device . Wondering if you see power data then?

if sensor mapping is used, perhaps the PDU feeding the rack-pdu dose not have measured data for the connected breaker.

Or perhaps the device/DCE is not reporting power data to DCO.  r-pdu's without showing measured data, are they same type and model? This might/could also be DDF related issue, if so you can ask for new DDF (at Device Support site).

Kind regards
