About the MultiSite Monitor Application

The MultiSite Monitor software is a server-based application that provides a platform-


independent graphical user interface (GUI), employed to monitor, inspect, analyse and
configure multiple Eltek power supply systems around the world using a standard Web
browser.

The diagram above shows an example of the infrastructure required to implement the
MultiSite Monitor application.

The customer or owner of the Ethernet network must implement the Ethernet links between
the Eltek’s controllers and the MultiSite Monitor database server (a static IP address for
each site).

All communication between the Eltek’s controllers around the world and the
MultiSite Monitor server may be protected behind a firewall.

Notice:
The MultiSite Monitor software is tested and approved for MS Windows with the latest
versions of the following Web browsers: Microsoft Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox.

Other browsers and operating systems may also be used, though faultless behaviour cannot
be guaranteed.
The MultiSite Monitor graphical user interface (GUI) is run on a standard browser, and
consists mainly of 4 user-friendly parts or types of views:

•The Map View


The geographical location of the power system sites

•The Inspect Views


Suitable for daily network operation, when examining the sites’ performances

•The Analyse Views


Suitable for managers who need to compare several sites’ performances, and plan
strategical changes to improve the sites’ performances

•The System Configuration Views


For configuration of the MultiSite Monitor network’s parameters for the power sites,
the site templates, the network’s users, the e-mail reports, the KPI targets, etc.
The Map View

The Map View provides an instant status overview of all networked power sites, and
shows their exact geographical location in a realistic world map.

Each site icon on the map shows graphically whether the power supply system is in
normal, alarm or offline modus. Clicking on the icon, displays the system’s most
important parameters (battery voltage and temperature, load current, solar current, etc.).
Also, you can “open the site” directly on your browser and reconfigure the power system,
as easily as if you were personally at the site yourself.

You can zoom in on the locations to see an Aerial View of the actual site, or a Road View
with the names of the roads and streets that lead to the site.

While using the Map Views, you can also display, at the bottom of the screen, the Alarm
Traps pane to display in real time the alarms (SNMP traps, v2 & v3) that the controllers in
the monitored sites continuously send to MultiSite Monitor. Refer to the “View” button on
the Toolbar ~ Left Side Section (1A).
The Inspect Views

The Inspect Views enable you to graphically inspect each site’s performance and
statistical data using pie charts, line charts, tables, etc.

(Example of Inspect View showing the Energy Trend of a power site)

The Inspect Views are suitable for personnel with network operation responsibilities,
who want to examine the sites’ performance by inspecting following type of data:

A. The Alarms reported by power sites and their ranking

The Analyse Views

The Analyse Views enable you to graphically compare the statistical data of two or
more power sites or group of sites.

(Example of an Analyse View comparing the energy consumption – solar, gen-set and grid
– of 3 power sites)

The Analyse Views are suitable for network managers who need to compare several
sites’ performances, thus being able to plan strategical changes to improve performances of
sites with underperforming statistical data. The comparisons are based on the analyses of
following type of data:

A. The comparison of the average battery temperature


(Analyse > Compare > Battery Temperature)

B. The comparison of the total energy consumption


(Analyse > Compare > Energy)

C. The comparison of the gen-set’s run time, fuel consumption and efficiency,

About the Site’s Energy Sources

Power supply systems for telecom and industrial equipment are usually fed from several
energy sources, and typically use a battery bank as a backup to avoid power outages to the
load.
The conventional energy source is the AC mains grid, but AC generators or gen-sets are
also used in areas with unstable AC grid supply.

But the increasing use of alternative energy sources — such as solar PV panels and wind
turbines — contribute greatly to implement more effective, “green” Power sites.

Power Sites supplied from several energy sources are called hybrid power systems.
Usually, hybrid sites are fed from several energy sources in a cyclic manner. Sites fed
from the AC grid may also use other energy sources (gen-set, solar panels, wind turbines,
etc.) as additional supplies, but not in a cyclic manner.

Inspect ~ Alarms ~ Details

This Inspect > Alarms > Details menu option presents, at the top of the working area (1), a
detailed statistical alarms overview (how long time sites have being in alarm or
disconnected) (7), as well as the site’s ranking number (8) compared to all sites. Refer to
topic Inspect ~ Alarms ~ Ranking.

This menu option also displays an Active Alarm list and Historical Alarm list (2) for the
selected sites or groups of sites.
Notice that the alarms in the Active Alarms list are still active, not yet reset.
Click on the tabs “Active Alarms” or “Historical Alarms” (2) to select the type of alarms
to display.

The Active Alarm list shows all the alarms that are active for the selected sites or group of
sites, indicating the alarm monitor (Alarm Description), its status, the site’s name, the date
& time when the alarm was reported the first time and the last time.

The Historical Alarm list shows all the logged alarms for the selected sites or group of
sites, indicating the same as the Active Alarm list, but also the date & time when the alarms
were reset.

You can click on the active alarm’s “Ack” buttons (9) -- in the “Acknowledge Alarm”
column -- if you are sure that an active alarm is no longer active (it has been reset). Then,
the alarm is moved from the Active Alarm list to the Historical Alarm list.

NOTICE:
A reset alarm (not active alarm) can be displayed in the Active Alarm list -- instead of in
the Historical Alarm list – if e.g. the controller is configured not to send OFF traps or the
controller was offline when it sent the OFF trap.
Clicking on the alarm’s “Ack” button will update the Active and the Historical Alarm lists.

Filtering

(4) Type of Alarm Filter


Using the lists’ toolbar (3) you can filter the list to show e.g. only one type of alarm. Click
on the “Status:” down arrow (4) and select, e.g. “Minor Low” or “Disconnected”, to
display only this type of alarm.

(5) Time Period Filter


You can select to display only the alarms reported by the selected sites or groups of sites
during a determined period of time. Click on the calendar icons (5) and select the
“From Date” and the “To Date”, then click on the Search icon .

(6) Event Log Details


Each alarm is also linked to the Event Log – see topic Inspect ~ Events – so clicking in
the alarm’s “Details” link, in the Event Log column (6), will display the selected alarm in
the Event Log.

Sorting

You can analyse the power sites’ active and historical alarms easily just by sorting the
columns, e.g. to display alarms of the same type together, or to sort the alarms
chronologically.
Click on the column titles to sort the alarms in ascending or descending order.

NOTICE:

A site’s alarm status information on the Active Alarms list may differ from the site’s alarm
status (coloured icons) on the My Network Explorer pane on the left hand side. This may
occur if the site’s controller does not send an SNMP trap for an alarm.

If the data differs, click on a site’s name on the left pane to “open the site” directly on your
browser and check the alarm status.

The Active Alarm list is based on received SNMP traps, v2 & v3 from the sites’
controllers, while the site’s alarm status (coloured icons) on the My Network Explorer pane
is based on the controllers’ status messages. While the events in the controller generate a
warning or alarm status change, not all events are sent out as SNMP traps.
Inspect ~ Alarms ~ Ranking

This Inspect > Alarms > Rankings menu option presents a ranking of EVERY site (1)
according to how long they have being in alarm and offline (disconnected from the
Ethernet network) in comparison to the rest of the connected sites.

The Active list (2) shows statistical alarm information ranking ALL sites after the
number of hours they have being in Major Alarm (3), Minor Alarm and Offline (not
connected to the Ethernet network). Also, it shows the date & time for when such situation
was last detected (4).
Notice that the alarms in this list are still active, not yet reset.

At the right hand side, it displays a Historical list (5) showing statistical alarm information
ranking ALL sites after the percentage they have being in Major alarm (6), Minor
alarm and Offline, as well as the total number of hours in such situations (7). Also, it
shows the date & time for when the sites were first created/defined (8) in
MultiSite Monitor.

Click on the tabs (3) “Major Alarm” or “Minor Alarm” or “Offline” to display the
ranking list for the type of alarm you want to analyse.

If required, click on the Refresh button (9) to update the statistical data from the server.

If lists are longer than displayed, you can use the navigation arrows (11) to browse
through the pages.
Best and Worst Performing Sites

You can analyse the power sites’ alarms in the ranking list to easily discover the sites
performing best (less hours in alarm or offline, highest ranking number “#”) and worst
(longer time in alarm or offline, lowest ranking number “#”), just by sorting the columns.
Click on the column title, ranking “#” or “Hours in…” (10), to sort the alarms in ascending
or descending order.

Checking the “Include Parent” box (10), the Event Logs list will display not only the site
that has changes status, but also the site group that the site belongs to, e.g. the site
“Drammen T1” (11), in the site group “Norway Grp”, has changed status to Major Alarm,
so both the site and the site group are listed (11).
Checking the “Include Parent” box might be useful if you configure a site group to send
an alarm report e-mail when any of the sites in the group change status, instead of
configuring each site with the alarm report e-mail service.

Analyse Views

The Analyse Views enable you to graphically compare the statistical data of two or
more power sites or group of sites.

(Example of an Analyse View comparing the energy consumption – solar, gen-set and grid
– of 3 power sites)

The Analyse Views are suitable for network managers who need to compare several
sites’ performances, thus being able to plan strategical changes to improve performances of
sites with underperforming statistical data.

The topic About the Site’s Energy Sources might be of interest.

The comparisons are based on the analyses of following type of data:

A. The comparison of the average battery temperature,


for two or more sites versus the average temperature for the group
(Analyse > Compare > Battery Temperature)

B. The comparison of the total energy consumption,


for two or more sites, specifying the kWh delivered to the power system by solar
panels, wind turbines, gen-set and the grid.
Also, the energy delivered by the grid to other additional equipment, such as air-
conditioners, fans, etc.
(Analyse > Compare > Energy)

C. The comparison of the gen-set’s run time, fuel consumption and efficiency,
for two or more sites, either as a summary or average for the group of sites
(Analyse > Compare > Generator)

D. The comparison of the grid availability,


for a site or a group of sites, presented in a column chart as the number of hours (or
as a percentage) the grid has been available for a given period of time of 30 days,
weeks or months.
Also, a line chart displaying the deviation of the grid availability from the
configured target
(Analyse > Compare > Grid Availability)

E. The system health, analysing the battery condition


for a group of sites, presented as the battery bank’s end-of-life time in days and as
its backup time in minutes for the group of sites
(Analyse > System Health > Battery Condition)

F. The system health, analysing the performance


of a site or group of sites, based on the energy consumption, the battery condition,
the gen-set running data and the site’s network connectivity quality with respect to
the configured targets.
Also, a pie chart presents the total results of the number of sites performing
according to targets, and the number of sites underperforming, near
underperforming and with unknown performances
(Analyse > System Health > Performance)

G. The key performance indicators (KPI’s),


for all power system sites, compared to the target values entered previously by the
MultiSite Monitor administrator.
This KPI view presents the indicators for the total energy consumed (from solar,
wind, gen-set). Also, it displays the performance indicators for all power sites,
indicating the number of underperforming sites
(Analyse > KPI)
(Example of the KPI Analyse View presenting the total energy consumption and
performance against the targets for all power sites)

While using the Analyse Views, you can also display, at the bottom of the screen, the

About the Content of the Reports

When the alarm report functionality for a site or group of sites is enabled, then
MultiSite Monitor does the following:

•When the site reports an alarm (system in alarm mode or with active alarms), then
MultiSite Monitor creates an alarm report log,
If the site is assigned with a type of report configured with 0 minutes delay, then
MultiSite Monitor sends an e-mail with the alarm report to the e-mail address(es)
assigned to the site

•If the site is assigned with a type of report configured with a delay, e.g. 1 hour, then
MultiSite Monitor continues for 1 hour adding to the alarm report log with all the
new alarms that the site reports, as well as when alarms are eventually reset.
After the delay (e.g. 1 hour), MultiSite Monitor sends an e-mail with the alarm
report to the e-mail address(es) assigned to the site

Notice that the MultiSite Monitor Report Service can only send e-mails with reports using a
valid, external third party SMTP server (Not included in MSM), e.g. your company’s e-
mail SMTP server.

WARNING:
To be able to send e-mails, MultiSite Monitor must be configured with the access data for
an external SMTP server, read topic Options.

It is advisable to use your local company e-mail server, or the e-mail server of the company
that provides you with Internet access.

TIPS:
— It is quite user-friendly to include in the report type name (in the Description column
(2)) the delay the report type is configured with, e.g. “Alarm Report – Delay 1 hour”

— It can be useful to configure a site group to send an e-mail with an alarm report when
any of the sites in the group have active alarms, instead of configuring each site with the
alarm report e-mail service
