Power Meter EtherCAT

A standalone software solution for measuring electrical power data on 1 to 3 phases. The measurement hardware is based on Beckhoff EtherCAT hardware EL3403 and EL3413 and is connected by a normal network adapter. The EtherCAT master is included in the software. No further software layer is needed.

The software measures values of voltage, current, effective power, reactive power, apparent power, cos phi and frequency of 3 phases. The measured values can be logged to files and displayed in a plot view.

Thresholds for monitoring tasks can be set. The threshold states can be used to trigger logging including historical ring buffer data and be output to digital lines.
