PXI Monitoring

Power Xpert Insight (PXI) software is a web-based power and energy monitoring system.  PXI was designed to be relatively simple to install and configure so that systems can be up and running quickly. It was developed after extensive study and testing with users.  The software allows customers to view only the device information that they want to see, simplify alarm management, view energy usage and demand data, compare and trend data, and view a one-line representation of their electrical system.
