HDPM6000 Sample Configuration Files

[JohnVanGorp]

A HDPM6000 system is configured using the web user interface on the head unit, but the complete configuration of a HDPM system can be downloaded to a file and then propagated to other HDPM systems. Several sample HDPM configuration files for HDPM head units with v0.58.7 or v0.62.7 firmware are included in the zip files attached to this post, including the following:

PME logging configuration: Sets up the head unit onboard logs to match the configuration expected by the PME HDPM6000 driver.

ANSI 120/208 configuration: Sets up the head unit onboard logs to match the configuration expected by the PME HDPM6000 driver. Sets up alarms and waveform capture for an ANSI 120/208 VAC power system. 

ANSI 277/480 configuration: Sets up the head unit onboard logs to match the configuration expected by the PME HDPM6000 driver. Sets up alarms and waveform capture for an ANSI 277/480 VAC power system. 

The HDPM6000 Manager software utility is used to upload configuration files to a head unit. See the "HDPM6000 Manager" section in the HDPM6000 Head Unit Installation Guide for information about uploading a configuration file to a head unit. HDPM6000 Manager is bundled with system firmware and available in the Software and Firmware section of the HDPM6000 section of the se.com web site.

See the README file bundled in the attached zip files for more details.

Thank you for sharing.

I had a customer use this tool and he indicated that it erased all the existing logs.  Is this normal behavior when applying this tool?  When they loaded the config file as described they seem to be only pulling in live data when making the change from that point on

When they revert back to before uploading config file then the historical data is there

Can those sample configuration files be applied to HDPM6000 of different firmwares?  For example can I use the HDPM-v0.62.7-Sample-Configuration-Files-v1.zip for a HDPM with v62.11 system firmware?

Hello @daniel_pena7561 ,

Yes a v62.7 configuration file can be applied to a v62.11 firmware device. Note that the statement is not generic and cannot be applied to all possible versions of configuration files and firmware versions. v62.7 configuration file does not have the PT ratio setting. If applying the configuration onto multiple files, I recommend saving the configuration from the first meter to apply to additional meters.

Regards,
