Concept
Energy Consumption Overview
You can monitor, process, and analyze energy consumption using the consumption monitor, the consumption processor object, and the consumption signature object in EcoStruxure Building Operation.
Consumption Monitor
The consumption monitor is used to log and calculate values from a physical meter using a point, called monitored variable, in the EBO server. The monitored variable can, for example, be a Modbus point or a BACnet point.
For more information, see Consumption Monitor .
Consumption Processor
The consumption processor object is used to process the information from one or many consumption monitors. Using the consumption processor, you can add or subtract energy consumption from many different consumption monitors. A consumption processor can also process information from another consumption processor.
For more information, see Consumption Processor .
Consumption Signature
The consumption signature object is used to calculate, analyze, and graphically present expected energy consumption.
For more information, see Consumption Signature .
Consumption Hierarchy
A consumption hierarchy is a view of relations between consumption monitors and consumption processors.
