SYNC 5000 Series: Metering Data Acquisition System

Kalkitech's SYNC 5000 is a high end Meter Data Acquisition System that performs AMR/ AMI data analysis in an integrated application base. The software is the key component in end-to-end automatic metering and is ideal for Grid Metering as well as LT Consumer Metering and Demand Side Management. SYNC 5000 has advanced features for analysis of load profile data, web based front end for all user configurations, user management, and large meter support up to 100,000 Consumer meters with three hours schedule for 120 days (Grid metering for 5000 meters with 10 sec schedule for 120 days) based on performance tests conducted (theoretically scalable to millions of meters).
The standards based interface with field and enterprise software as well as the distributed architecture of the system ensure unmatched scalability and interoperability in AMR/AMI implementations, and thus, is future-proof for Smart Grid deployments.
Support Documents
SYNC 5000 is a server based Meter data Head End System dedicated for a metering application like AMM, AMI that can consolidate information over open standards based interface to a Meter Data Management Systems as well as other Enterprise level solutions. SYNC 5000 can talk to local as well as remote meters over a wide range of physical communication media like, RS232, RS485, RS422, Ethernet Base Tx/ Fx 10/ 100/ 1000 Mbps, GSM/ GPRS/ CDMA/ PSTN/LPR. Some of these interface shall be direct interfaces and others can be through port servers, modem banks.
Data collected from meters are stored in an RDBMS based permanent storage, so that a communication link failure with the head end system will not create any data loss. SYNC 5000 support standards based IEC-62056 DLMS/ COSEM, Modbus RTU/ TCP protocols apart from some proprietary protocols, and using a driver development kit it is possible to add new protocol adapters.
SYNC 5000 supports a host of meters including:
