- Configure account information to match internal utility nomenclature, making it easier for customers to integrate the AMR system with internal accounting systems and procedures.
- Generate user-customized graphs for user-selectable data ranges.
- Design custom reports and provide reports for specifically identified groups of accounts, such as commercial versus residential accounts or those in specific zip codes.
- Manage the installation process at the NCC rather than at the meter.
- Set up virtual utilities that are treated as individual entities in the system, allowing management of gas, water, or electric accounts separately on a single network computer.
- Easily archive data related to settings, users, roles, virtual utilities, alarms, and meters.
In the end, the key to the Aclara STAR Network and NCC software is its ability to help utilities successfully manage and use AMI data. The system can manage large amounts of data from readings made at intervals as often as 15 minutes. The NCC software allows you to analyze and monitor that data to translate it into knowledge. Knowledge that will put the entire AMI puzzle together to create customer profiles, help with customer support, and assist with billing questions and conservation efforts.
