Voltmasters Platform
Project settings
Every setting on a Voltmasters EMS project: grid protection, battery strategy, energy contracts, the EMS controller, the API, users and the audit trail.
The project settings govern how the EMS manages energy for a site: what the grid connection allows, how the battery is steered, which contract the prices are calculated against, and who has access. They are spread over a few pages in the project menu.
Start with General settings, which walks through all of them in the order they appear.
- General settings: project details, grid protection, battery strategy and contract optimisation.
- Energy contracts and Energy price calculation: how the market becomes the prices the EMS plans against.
- Consumption planning: telling the EMS when consumption will differ from the forecast.
- EMS controller: the controls and the network configuration of the controller on site.
- DSO RTU settings and External control: the grid operator and the trading party that may steer the installation.
- Users: who has access, and what the Client and Installer roles may do.
- API and Activity: reading the project from your own software, and the audit trail of every change.
