To keep an efficient use of all available resources in mind, reading, monitoring and analyzing it's necessary to read, monitor and analyze consumption values of smart meters is necessary. Therefore, the NETx BMS Platform provides a metering module. This metering module is used to visualize and analyze consumption values of smart meters. Based on a cost center structure, it is possible to perform a cost calculation of the consumed resources.
Licensing
The metering module is automatically installed with the standard installation of the NETx BMS Platform. However, in order to use it, a license extension is required. To get a license a fix fee has to be paid. In addition, for each metering point meter point that is defined within the metering module, 10 data points are subtracted from the available amount of data points of your license.
