Management Module

The management module is the section where the entire organizational structure within the platform is created and managed.

In this section;

  • Company creation
  • User and role management
  • Site creation
  • Plant creation
  • Device addition
  • Signal definition

The system operates according to the following hierarchical structure:

                    Company
                    ↓
                    Role
                    ↓
                    User
                    ↓
                    Site
                    ↓
                    Plant
                    ↓
                    Device
                    ↓
                    Signals
                    

Each level manages the level below it, and the system is organized through this structure.

1. Role Management

Role management is used to determine what actions users can perform within the system.

Specific permissions can be defined for each role.

When creating a role:

  • Main company is selected
  • Role name is defined
  • Role permissions are selected

Permissions control which pages users can access and what actions they can perform. Example permissions:

  • View map
  • List users
  • Add user
  • Create role
  • Edit role
  • Company management
  • Site management
  • Plant management
  • Device management

With this structure, different user types can be created. Example:

  • Admin
  • Operator
  • Viewer

2. User Management

In the user management section, new users are added to the system and existing users are managed.

When creating a user, the following information is defined:

  • Company
  • Email address
  • User role
  • Accessible plants
  • Status

The pages users can see and the actions they can perform in the system depend entirely on the permissions of the assigned role. Example:

  • Admin → full system access
  • Viewer → view only

3. Company Management

In the company management section, new companies are added to the system. Each company can have its own users and energy assets.

When creating a company, the following information is entered:

  • Company name
  • Company title
  • Email
  • Phone
  • Address
  • Tax office
  • Tax number
  • Contact person
  • Status

Each company can have multiple users, sites, and plants under it.

4. Site Management

A site represents the physical location where plants are located. A company can have multiple sites.

When creating a site, the following information is entered:

  • Site name
  • Parent unit
  • Country
  • Distribution region (EDAŞ)
  • Address
  • Latitude
  • Longitude
  • Voltage level
  • Status

Sites allow plants to be organized geographically.

5. Plant Management

In the plant management section, energy production facilities are created. Each plant is associated with a site.

When creating a plant, the following information is defined:

  • Site
  • Plant name
  • Plant type
  • Installed power
  • Connection power
  • Meter serial number
  • Production subscriber number
  • Consumption subscriber number
  • Block / Parcel information
  • Number of panels
  • Inverter information
  • Number of cameras

With this information, the plant is defined in detail within the system.

6. Device Management

In the device management section, devices associated with plants are added. Devices can be added in the following ways:

  1. Manual device addition
  2. Addition from device library

When creating a device, the following information is entered:

  • Plant
  • Device name
  • Serial number
  • Device type
  • Device model
  • Protocol

Devices generally consist of the following types:

  • Inverter
  • Data Logger
  • Energy analyzer
  • Meter

Each device is associated with a plant.

7. Device Library

The device library contains predefined device definitions that can be used in the system. Thanks to this library, the device addition process can be performed more quickly.

Information available in the library:

  • Device name
  • Brand
  • Device type
  • Model

If a device is added from the library, device signals are created automatically.

8. Signals

Signals represent data points read from devices. Each device can have multiple signals. Example signals:

  • dc_voltage
  • dc_current
  • phaseA_current
  • phaseB_current
  • phaseC_current
  • frequency

The following information is defined for each signal:

  • Signal name
  • Signal type
  • Address
  • Scale Ratio
  • Object Address
  • Data label
  • Status

If the device is added from the library, signals are automatically added to the system. If the device is added manually, signals must be added one by one via device management.

System Setup Order

For the system to work correctly, the following setup order should be followed:

  1. Create company
  2. Create role
  3. Create user
  4. Create site
  5. Create plant
  6. Add device
  7. Define signals

After completing these steps, the system becomes ready to collect data.
