Meter Events

Netstream not only collects readings from meters, but also reports events. Meter events are categorised in a manner that divides the enumerated code into three parts: Category, Sub-category and Event or Action.

This screen is reached from the View events context menu on the Meters screen

A sample screenshot is shown below for meter serial number 210072373.

Column Name Description
Time The time at which the event or action occurred
Category This provides an indication as to the high-level nature of the event or action
Sub-Category A further sub-division of event categories
Event or Action The most specific part of an event categorisation. Generally in the form of a verb that gives action to the event that just occurred.
Action If true indicates this event occurred as a result of an operator's action. Otherwise, the meter originated the event.
Event Details Certain events require or contain more details than just a description and a category. For example, specification of a particular channel number, alarm number, relay number, port number, formula number, version number, etc.
