What Are the Error Flags?

Most error flags indicate that a problem or event has occurred in the system. In E-Mon Energy™, the error flags

indicate a problem or an event with either the communications, devices, or data. With E-Mon Energy, the error flags

are divided into categories: Connection, Protocol, Profile, or Billing.

What Is a Connection Error?

The Connection Errors usually indicate that communication has been lost either locally or remotely to the meter or

recorder. These errors can vary from “Auto Answer Setup Failed to get Comport.” These error flags appear in either

a dialog message or the status bar area. The dialog messages usually indicate that you must respond by clicking the

OK button to confirm. The status bar error messages usually mean that you may need to fix or reset the hardware

before clearing the flag. The illustrations below show a dialog message error and a status bar message error.

What Is a Protocol Error?

The Protocol Errors are usually high level errors that occur between the request and response of messages transferred

to and from the meters and recorders (IDR/Class 3000). These types of errors usually require technical personnel to

resolve them due to the high level commands that must initiate through a terminal to the device.

What Is a Profile Error?

The Profile errors are problems that occur with the recorder or the meter due to incorrect download data such as the

recorder (i.e.“Err: missing day block or meter not found in DB (database).” These types of errors also appear in

either a dialog message or the status bar. The illustration below shows a dialog message error.
