Installing the eGauge

Installing the eGauge



The Blue Ion Energy Storage System uses the eGauge Core for monitoring, data collection and portal viewing. The user can access their Blue Ion 2.0 energy storage data using the eGauge user interface as well as their Blue Ion Dashboard. The embedded web server allows the user to connect to the interface over the internet or on a local area network. Each unit has a data logger that stores your Blue Ion Energy Storage System data for the lifetime of the hardware, and the user can access data as granular as 1-second averages for the most recent hour of recording. 


Please note that only a local area network (LAN)  is required for this monitoring to work--internet access is optional. A local area network is a computer network that interconnects computers within a limited area such as a residence, school, laboratory, university campus or office building. LAN's may be but are not required to connect to the internet. 


The eGauge Core is a 15 channel energy meter with 0.5% revenue grade accuracy compliance and the ability to measure residential or commercial circuit panels, up to 3-phase 277/480VAC and 6900A.
