Web Function (Japanese, English, and Chinese languages are supported)		You can confirm operating condition, operate the EQ100-E, view simple graphs, and perform maintenance through a web browser on a computer connected to the LAN or sub-LAN connection port. The operation channel cannot be displayed as a graph.
Taking Out Internal Data File		The following four methods are available:
	(1) Collecting by EQ Server	The EQ server collects the collected data and event logs stored in the EQ100-E internal memory via the network.
	(2) Operations on Web UI Screen	The collected data or event logs stored in the EQ100-E internal memory is downloaded to the personal computer by operations on the Web UI screen.
	(3) SD Card Output	Any of the following operations outputs the collected data and log files stored in the EQ100-E internal memory to an SD card. • Pressing the SD card save button on the EQ100-E front side • Web UI operations: SD card data output operations If the SD card output setting is configured as "Yes" by EQ-Manager, the collected data stored in the EQ100-E internal memory is saved on an SD card once a day.
	(4) FTP Transfer	FTP server and FTP client functions are available. • FTP server function: Acquires the collected data files stored in the EQ100-E internal memory via an FTP client and the collected data on an SD card attached to EQ100-E or an event log. • FTP client function: Sends collected data files stored in the EQ100-E internal memory to the FTP server from EQ100-E.
Monitoring Alarm	Function	Alarm is set off when collected data exceeds the upper or lower limit. Output to a general-purpose output terminal is available as well.
	Email Notification	Function: Monitoring Alarm Email
	Log to Internal Memory	Monitoring alarm occurrence is saved into the internal memory. The event log can be checked on the Web UI screen and outputted as an event log file.
	Status Indication	The monitoring alarm indicator is turned ON.
Device Alarm Detection	Function	Detects a device failure, setup/status failure, device failure, communication failure, or monitoring process failure.
	Email Notification	Function: Device alarm notification email
	Status Indication	Lighting, blinking, blinking in long cycles, temporary lighting of the device alarm indicator lamp
	Log to Internal Memory	An occurred device alarm is saved into the internal memory. It can be outputted as an event log file.
Contact Output	Function	An alarm can be outputted through the general-purpose output terminal when the monitoring condition is met.
Email Notification	Function	• Monitoring alarm notification email: Sent upon a monitoring alarm occurrence. • Device alarm notification email: Sent upon an occurrence of a device failure or an abnormality of setup/status, device, communications, or monitoring process of EQ100-E. • Periodic alarm: An e-mail with the main text is written by the user is sent at a specified time. • Test email: Sent by Web UI operations to check the email notification settings or the state of communications with the SMTP server. Note: The SMTP function with email transmission authentication supports: • POP before SMTP • POP before SMTP(APOP) • SMTP AUTH PLAIN • SMTP AUTH CRAM-MD5
Maintenance Function	Communication Test	Communications with connected measurement devices are continuously performed to check stability of the communications with measurement devices. Collected data are not saved.

*1. The maximum number of measurement channels of EQ100-E is 500, including all sensors (measurement devices) and
      operation channels.
*2. One slave device of wireless sensor is calculated as one device regardless of the number of master devices connected
      with LAN and the number of connected relay devices.
*3. No. of connected KM-N1-FLK devices = No. of measurement circuits (No. of the measurement circuits set on the power
      sensor main unit), No. of connected KM1 devices = No. of units (No. of master and slave devices)
*4. For RS-485 connection, either CompWay/F or ModbusRTU can be selected for each communication port.
