Panamax/Furman's BlueBOLT power and energy management platform has been updated with version 1.2, which promises to help users conserve energy, lower their utility bills and gain access to an expanded energy management feature set and new control options.
BlueBOLT version 1.2 allows integrators or end users to input energy rates specific to devices' installation locations. Using this information, the BlueBOLT platform calculates the energy used by connected devices and reports it, historically and in real time, in kilowatt-hours as well as dollars. Energy usage information can be viewed on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. Users can also set energy budgets for their equipment and receive alerts when their usage is near or exceeding their allotted budget.
Additional enhancements of BlueBOLT version 1.2 include an updated graphical user interface as well as an auto-reboot feature for networking equipment. With auto-reboot, outlets can be designed to automatically power-cycle when an Internet connection is lost, eliminating the all-too-common need to hard-reboot modems and routers.
The Version 1.2 update is free to all BlueBOLT users and is compatible with all BlueBOLT-enabled devices.
