The document discusses the various power reporting features available in SyAM Software. It describes how to generate different types of power charts and reports to analyze power usage and savings over time. These include devices powered on/off charts, kWh used charts, achieved savings charts, and detailed reports on identified savings potentials and actual achieved savings by group. Both summary and detailed reports can be generated on demand or scheduled via email.

- 7. Achieved Savings Chart • The Achieved Savings chart appears in the menu when Power Auditor is in Achieved Savings mode. This chart shows the amount saved, by system type, for the specified range of days. Management Utilities - Power Reporting 7
- 8. Power Audit Reports Power Auditor can produce HTML or PDF reports on demand. PDF reports are stored in an archive, named either by Report Type or by the text entered in the Save Report As field. Available report types include Identified Savings (potential cost savings based on audit data) and Achieved Savings (actual savings from enforcing power settings with Management Utility power templates). Both summary and detail reports can be generated for these report types. Management Utilities - Power Reporting 8
- 9. Identified Savings Summary Identified savings reports, both on-demand and email, contain the following information (per group and totals): •Name: The name of the Power Audit group •Device Count: Total number of systems in the group •Active Count: The number of systems that reported powered on status at any time during the reporting period •Contributing Count: The number of systems that contributed to identified savings, that is, they were powered on for more hours than specified by the Power On Hours template •Average Device Wattage: System power consumption as specified in the Power On Hours template •Average Monitor Wattage: Display power consumption as specified in the Power On Hours template •Total Hours On: Number of powered on hours for the entire group during the reporting period •Hours To Be Saved: Number of powered on hours outside those specified by the Power On Hours template •kWh To Be Saved: Total potential power saving for the group, based on wattages and hours calculated •Amount To Be Saved: Total potential dollars saved for the group, based on kWh savings calculated and cost per kWh specified in Administration Settings Management Utilities - Power Reporting 9
- 10. Achieved Savings Summary In Identified Savings mode, actual powered on hours are compared to the desired hours as defined in the Power On Hours Template. When we move into Achieved Savings mode, we are comparing the actual powered on hours with the baseline of data that was collected during the Identified Savings period. So there are some differences in achieved savings reports: •Contributing Count: The number of systems that contributed to achieved savings, that is, they were powered on fewer hours than the baseline average •Hours Saved: Number of powered on hours saved through power management, compared with the baseline data •kWh Saved: Actual power saving for the group, based on wattages and hours calculated •Amount Saved: Actual dollars saved for the group, based on kWh savings calculated and cost per kWh specified in Administration Settings Management Utilities - Power Reporting 10
- 11. Devices Powered Off Report The Devices Powered Off Detail Report summarizes by group the number of active devices (devices that have been powered on) and the number of devices powered off for each day in the date range. A detailed breakout of each day follows the summary, listing the active devices and whether or not they were shut down before midnight. Management Utilities - Power Reporting 11
- 12. Other Reports • Devices Not Power On – The Devices Not Powered On report lists all devices, by group, that have not been powered on between the start date and the end date. If a device is powered on at any time during this period, it will not be listed on the report. • List Machines with Agent but no Power Template – The List Machines with Agent but no Power Template report lists all devices that have a SyAM System Client but currently do not have a Power Schedule template applied to them. Systems that have Power on Hours Templates for 168 hours a week will not be presented in this report. • List Machines without Agent – The List Machines without Agent report lists all devices that are being audited that currently do not have a SyAM System Client installed on them. • Achieved Savings Detail – This report shows achieved savings for individual machines. • Identified Savings Detail – This report shows identified savings for individual machines.

- 13. Executive Report • The executive report is available when in Achieved Savings Mode. The report summarized achieved savings results for the selected month and year, displaying savings by group, the trend in amount of money saved, how achieved savings compares with projected savings, and a summary of carbon savings for the month.
