PME Meter Logging

[JT2025]

I have a PowerLogic PM5000 Series meter and I'm wanting to automate the data log uploads so that it can be used for reporting in a 3rd party app.

I have the PM5DataLogger app version 1.0.3 but it only runs in a logged-on context on Windows. Is there a way to configure this as a background service for continuous logging on a Windows Server (or Linux)?

Hi @JT2025,

I believe it is not possible, as the PM5500 user guide mentions that the app should be running at all times to ensure successful log exports.

Yes, that's what I see.  Was hoping that Schneider had packaged it with the option to load it under a Windows service suitable for enterprise use.

Hello @JT2025 ,

The answer is no, Schneider does not. Enterprise options would be other Schneider offers like Power Monitoring Expert.
