Editing Engine Data

The Engine Data Measurements editor is used to define measurements in PME that are related to generator engine operation, for example battery voltage, or coolant temperature. You can then map these measurements to engine data that is recorded by a monitoring device for the generator engine. The items being measured, typically analog data, can differ from generator to generator. Battery voltage and coolant temperature are two common measurements.

 

To add engine data measurements:

1. Click Edit Engine Data to open the Edit Engine Data Measurements editor.
2. Click New to add a new measurement.
3. Complete the following fields:
   • Name - Enter a name for the measurement.
   • Units - Enter a unit for the measurement.
4. (Optional) Repeat steps 2 and 3 to add additional measurements.
5. Click OK to save the new measurement and close the Edit Engine Data Measurements window.

Next, map the measurements that you create to the registers/measurements recorded by the monitoring device for the generator engine. See Assigning engine data for details.
