MeterManager EXT is a software service application that runs in conjunction with the Communicator EXT™ application as an automated service on a computer. It functions as an automation engine to manage meters for users.

It consists of 5 main components:

1. Automated Meter Network Connection – The software automatically finds meters on a network by scanning configurable IP address ranges.
2. Organizes Meters into Groups – Group meters by location, type, download interval, name or any other desired method. View an installed base of meters as a unified group that can be managed easily and quickly.
3. App Launcher – Launch into any apps associated with that meter, such as the Communicator EXT™ application, Log Viewer, EnergyReporter Viewer, etc.
4. Multi-threaded Data Collector – The software architecture is designed as a multi-threading application running as a service, so that data is collected system-wide and automatically stored, while running in the background of the PC.
5. Automatic Meter Report Generator – Generate customized reports and send them out to users on programmed intervals.
