What is Smart IMS

Smart Integrated Metering System (Smart IMS) is an up-to-date automated system that is purposed for remote metering of different resources consumption, such as electrical energy, water, gas, heat, as well as for the consumption processes management.

When the question is about Smart IMS, the “Integrated” term has several meanings. The originally first and main from them is the following: System can integrate meters purposed for different resources. Thereby, System can support metering of several kinds of resources simultaneously.

Together is more advantage!

Scalability, Flexibility and Openness

Smart IMS is a scalable system that can be easy extended in accordance with each specified objective conditions. Possible System scale is ranged from separate residential building, office, enterprise to multi-million city.

Smart IMS is a flexible system that is easy adapting, both structurally and functionally, to particular application conditions.

Smart IMS is an open system that is able to interface with other systems, for example, billing system, supporting standard protocols and generally accepted data formats.
System Structure

Smart IMS has 3-level architecture

Low Level. This level includes terminal devices that are installed directly at metering points. These can be addax-devices (meters, controllers), or devices produced by other manufacturers, supporting interfaces applied in System.
Intermediate Level. To this level the ADDAX.Net. data distributing network is related. The intermediate level feature is possibility of data transmission performing via any from accessible physical environments: GSM (GPRS), Ethernet, PL (MV), PL (LV), RF, Wire (several variants).
High Level. This level is represented by Data Collection and Processing Center. The Center software includes: MS Windows 2000 SP4 / XP SP2 / 2003 Server SP1
