Energy Studio Cloud becomes mobile
Energy Studio Cloud it is a strong and scalable monitoring platform that, even starting from a simple configuration, can then grow (step by step) up to a real and professional “Control room”.
As standard ESC (Energy Studio Cloud) offers in bundle all the features and functionalities of Energy Studio Manager for networks of up to 20 Elcontrol Analyzers, but without any need of local software installation and local server availability; as a consequence of the cloud base technology, data will be available wherever to as many users as needed without constraints.
Energy Studio Cloud has now implemented a smart and light mobile platform that can be activated on existing ESC accounts.
All your measurements will be then available from any mobile device (smartphone, tablet etc.) as well as from any HTML5 capable browser.

- One plant (we identify the “plant” as a location where all analyzers can be connected without a transit through the Internet)
- Available connectivity to the Internet via Etherner or Wifi
- Satellite or plan view of the plant
- Connection of analyzers (existing or to be set) via 485
- Exclusively Elcontrol analyzers
- Up to 20 analyzers
Forniture will include one already configured polling device where 485 connection line will have to be connected; after system deployment, customer will receive a connection link and account details (user and password).

Customizations and extensions
ESC can be the upgraded (later and progressively) by adding for example:
- chunks of 20 additional Elcontrol analyzers
- add more plants in the network by adding additional polling devices
- link to third parties analyzers: Elcontrol will install appropriate drivers to your account
- link to whichever ambient sensors: Elcontrol will install appropriate drivers to your account
- install active hardware devices to the system so that you can act remotely on the system (switch on and off lights or devices, i.e.)
- plant view can be structured in layers according to the zoom level user sets
- customized views or data panels can be developed according to customer specifications
- system can be installed on a cloud server owned by customer avoidinf Elcontrol ones
