Data visualization

Data received from individual street lighting system switchboards are collected in the control station of the street lighting system’s operator and are then processed using software that visualizes them on the operator’s monitor. The operator can then monitor the condition of the complete system on one screen. The program has been compiled so that received information messages are classified into three levels:
1. Emergency messages
- Main circuit breaker tripping
- Mains power supply failure
- Failures of individual luminaires
- Violent switchboard opening
2. Undesirable messages
- By-Pass contactor turning on
- Current supply failure in individual branch lines of the street lighting system
- Reduction of quality of system backup batteries
3. Operational messages
- Electricity meter status
- Status of currents in individual street lighting system branch lines
- Conditions of all contactors

Visualization starts with the topographic positioning of the switching points in the town plan. The colour of the point then characterizes its operational status; the status of individual components of the switchboard are then displayed in other windows.
The program allows control of the following basic functions:
- RVO(switchboard) turning on and off
- Electricity meter status reading
- Voltage regulation turning on and off (By-pass)
- Voltage and current in individual switchboard´s branch lines reading
- Specification of backup power supply condition
- Inspection of the control unit and switchboard diagnostics
- Amenity lighting turning on and off
- Individual street lighting system luminaires turning on and off
- Both group and individual control of outputs of luminaires
The operator can communicate with individual switching points or select mass control of the complete system. Received alarm messages are displayed in a table and the operator is also notified of them by an acoustic signal.
Software is customized and can be modified in accordance with the specific requirements and wishes of individual operators.
