Reviewing Genie Configurations
Use the One-Line Configuration Utility to review genie configurations before you compile your project.
If you are upgrading from an earlier version:
- Run Update Pages in the Graphics Builder.
- Create the pages.
Errors (
) and warnings (
). You must correct errors; otherwise, you may not be able to compile, and the animation will not work. Although you might not need to correct warnings, you should review them to ensure that their settings are correct.
TIP: When you hover over an error or warning icon, a tooltip tells you what is wrong with the genie.
To launch the One-Line Configuration Utility:
- Make sure you are viewing the system for which you want to view information.
- In Power Operation Studio, click Launch the Single Line Configuration Utility
.
- Click OK to the message that displays.
- Use Genie Configuration to:
- View genie types, along with their states (normal, warning, error) and their properties
- Repair genies that are part of a version 7.30 or later project:
- Corrects incorrect breaker, source, meter, transformer, and Sim source numbers
- Corrects invalid line active when a connected busbar has a valid line active
- Repair and upgrade genies that are part of a project from a version earlier than 7.30
- Renumbers ALL breaker, source, meter, and Sim source numbers
- Corrects invalid line active when a connected busbar has a valid line active
- Reassigns ALL valid busbars
- Use Color Configuration to assign colors to sources.
The first time you load the utility, a large system could take a couple of minutes to load. After that, it should load within a minute.
There are 2 tabs:

Repair—Upgrade Project |
Check this box to cause the repair feature to repair the entire project. Use this feature only to upgrade projects that are earlier than Power Operation 2022. This option repairs the entire project, renumbering all busbars, breakers, meters, duplicate Sim sources, and sources. Additionally, busbar line active states are used to determine meter and source line active states. DO NOT perform Repair—Upgrade Project more than once, and do not perform it on a Power Operation with Advanced Reporting and Dashboards project. |
