3. First of all
MIDAS-Evo is a powerful program to allow the user to analyze the energy consumption. There are some features we must be familiar with.
User friendly: Simple and graphical human machine interface.
Data always on hard disk. Every time you want it is possible to retrieve the data and to see them in graphical or table format
Simulation of consumption cost. More calendars may be created to help the user to define the best tariff profile.
In the complete version, the user has a true SCADA program to design the own diagrams and to customize the project by using a programming language.

Summary

4. First of all
All IME devices communicate via ModBus RTU protocol through the RS-485 or Ethernet interface
Only NEMO 96 HD comes with ModBus over TCP/IP selectable protocol.
Summary

5. Protocols and hardware interface
MidasEvo support 2 type communication protocols and 2 type hardware interface
The hardware interface are physical communication gate:
1) RS-232 or RS-458
2) Ethernet
The protocols are:
1) ModBus RTU
2) ModBus RTU over TCP/IP
Summary

6. Logical communication channels
MidasEvo support ”15 communications channels”
The communication channels are the logic way to connect the “protocol” with “hardware interface”
For example, is possible associate the channal 1 with ModBus RTU on com3 via RS-485, the channal 2 with ModBus RTU on com6 via RS-485, the channal 3 with ModBus RTU over TCP/IP via ethernet and in the same way, connect all the other present interface.
Summary

7. Configuration
The first operation is to create a new network and this can be done in few steps.
Just add a new device chosen from add button list, assign an ID and device Modbus address, select the logical communication channel and the belonging section.

Summary

8. Configuration detail
In the main Configuration Window, click on Add Device to arrive here.
Choose the device Model from list
Add an personal ID
Select a logical communication channel
Set the device Modbus node
Configure the graphical section 1 2 3 4 5
Config

9. Create an application At this point, click on button
“Build Application” on the left
bottom corner. In this way Midas
create a full and working
Application for us.
A further step it’s necessary:
the “Gate configuration”.

11. Create a Web Server
When creating a new application or updating a current application Midas ask you if want create a web server application. If you answer yes, you will find all parameters that will activate the integrate web server. The web server has the task of publishing on the Internet the data aquired by meters.

Up to 6 sections per page are possible
Up to 60 sections are possible, extending the max. number of devices very close to 1000
