Configuring ATSs using the ASCO Automatic Transfer Switch Configuration Tool

The ASCO Automatic Transfer Switch Configuration Tool supports up to 255 ATSs. Each ASCO ATS and its associated power meter that has its own PME device type requires a high-end device license in PME.

Prerequisites

  • The communication details (Protocol, IP Address, Port Number, Unit ID) of the ASCO ATS communication components must be known.

  • A Windows Administrator account is required to open the configuration tool for the first time.

  • Each ASCO ATS needs its own high-end device license in PME.

  • If an ASCO ATS contains a power meter that has its own PME device type (e.g., PowerLogic PM8000, PowerLogic ION9000), the power meter must have its own high-end device license in PME.

  • A site entry will automatically be created in PME Management Console for the ASCO Gateway Service. Remove any site entries previously created in PME Management Console to avoid duplication before you apply and save changes in this tool.

  • A device entry will automatically be created in PME Management Console for the ASCO ATS and any associated power meter that has its own PME device type. Remove any ATS and / or power meter device entries previously created in PME Management Console to avoid duplication before you apply and save changes in this tool.
