Using enerVista Viewpoint with the 745

information onto any PC with plug-and-play simplicity. enerVista Viewpoint connects
instantly to the 745 via serial, ethernet or modem and automatically generates
detailed overview, metering, power, demand, energy and analysis screens.
Installing enerVista Launchpad (see previous section) allows the user to install a
fifteen-day trial version of enerVista Viewpoint. After the fifteen day trial period you
will need to purchase a license to continue using enerVista Viewpoint. Information
on license pricing can be found at http://www.enerVista.com
.

2. Ensure that the 745 device has been properly configured for either serial or
Ethernet communications (see previous sections for details).
3. Click the Viewpoint window in enerVista to log into enerVista Viewpoint. At this
point, you will be required to provide a login and password if you have not
already done so.
