Detecting Machine Power-Off/Connectivity Loss in Energy Manager/Performance Insight

Yes, you can monitor for machine power-off or connectivity loss (connector disconnect) within Siemens Energy Manager or Performance Insight.

Here's how:

• Data Monitoring & Alarms: Configure alarms based on the absence of data from a specific device/connector. A sustained lack of data indicates a power-off or connection issue.
• Status Indicators: Utilize the 'Connection Status' or similar indicators available for each connector within the platform. Changes in these statuses can trigger alerts.
• Custom Calculations/KPIs: Create a custom KPI that evaluates data staleness. If data hasn't been received for a defined period, the KPI can flag an alert or change color on a dashboard.

• Siemens SiePortal - Monitoring Device Connectivity
• Refer to your Energy Manager/Performance Insight documentation for specific alarm configuration instructions.

For detailed configuration steps tailored to your specific setup, please consult the Siemens documentation or contact Siemens Support.
