The memory further comprises a database of a plurality of geographic locations and coordinate information for the plurality of geographic locations. The control system further comprises a setup routine comprising a user interface enabling a user to select one of the plurality of geographic locations and a manager routine automatically determining sunrise and sunset times using the coordinate information for the selected geographic location and providing the sunrise and sunset times to the scheduling routine.
摘要:
The method serves for calling a substation (USm) by a central station (Z) in a transmission system for the purposes of information transmission by way of a communication channel (m) called from a plurality of communication channels. The plurality of communication channels is subdivided into communication groups (GRI, GRII, GRIII) of the same property or the same parameter values. Within a selected communication group (GRII) a communication channel (m) is called, which is still communication-free. If all (n) communication channels of the communication group (GRII) are already busy, the central station (Z) goes into a waiting condition until at least one of the communication channels of the communication group (GRII) becomes communication-free. The method permits optimum, parallel and synchronous utilisation of all available communication means for a group of the substations so that the central station (Z) by way of communication channels of that group acquires simultaneously and in optimum fashion data, in particular measurement data of electricity meters, of all associated substations.
