Evaluating Omnivex SCADA for energy monitoring: is there a ready-made starting point?

[ShiftAnalyst]

We are a small system integrator and a customer asked us for a SCADA system to monitor about 20 energy analyzers in a factory, with a single-line diagram and basic reports. We haven't used Omnivex SCADA before.
Before committing to the project, I'd like to build a quick prototype to show the customer and to estimate our engineering hours. Is there a sample project or template we can start from, or do we build everything from scratch? And what's the best way to get help from your side during the evaluation?

Thanks for considering Omnivex SCADA for your customer's project.
Sample projects
Yes, the editor includes sample projects you can use as a starting point. Under the Insert tab, Sample Project offers several options, including Energy and Analyzer, as well as Gas, Water, Control and Dashboard. For your case, the Energy and Analyzer samples are the natural place to start. Open one, look at how channels, frames, tags and pages are structured, and adapt it to your analyzers.
Building a quick prototype
1. Start from a sample project and keep its page structure.
2. Connect one real analyzer first (most use Modbus RTU or Modbus TCP) and confirm the values are correct, including scaling and units.
3. Once one analyzer works, use Import/Export Tags to prepare the remaining analyzers in Excel, which saves a lot of time with 20 similar devices.
4. Add a single-line diagram page and a simple Tag Report so the customer sees the full picture.
Reference
We delivered a similar project for an energy infrastructure with 17 analyzers and a single-line diagram. You can read about it here: https://greensoft.ai/news/greensoft-...-line-diagram/
