EZMeter Reader Software
Overview
The EZMeter Reader software package is available at low cost (free while the program is in beta testing) for reading the EZ Plus series of meters, both the older power-line and twisted-pair meters as well as the recently released RS-485 meters.
Tenant Billing
The program can be used with the automatic reading system meters for totally
automated billing or it can be used with manually read meters to prepare
invoices. Multiple rates can be entered and applied separately to
individual tenants. The rates can include minimum charges, a
fixed fee, and different rates based on the number of kilowatt hours used.
The program also supports a single fixed charge for each tenant, usually
rent.
The program does not handle time of use billing or demand billing.
Data Logging
The program can be configured to read the meters on whatever schedule
the userdesires with the data logged in the database. There are some
reports built into the program plus the user can export the data to Microsoft Excel
or another spreadsheet program. You can use Windows Scheduler to read whatever meters
you select on any time schedule that you can configure Scheduler to do.
A separate meter reading module is expected soon that will run as a Windows
Service which will run in the background whenever your computer is running and log meter readings
on whatever schedule is desired, from every few minutes, to daily or monthly.
System Requirements
EZ ReadIt Gold requires Windows 2000, XP, Vista, or Windows 7.
