LISTS dropdown
The Lists Dropdown give access to the ‘standing data’ or ‘fixed data’ required for the running of the
system.
 Applicable Days setup
When the Applicable Day option is ticked in the product key, “Applicable Day Calendars” and “Applicable
Day Schedules” are available in the Lists drop down menu. In the Target tab of Meter Properties,
“Occupancy” is available as a target type, and a drop down list for “Applicable Day Calendar” is displayed
under both Occupancy and Weather targets. To set and calculate targets based on Applicable Days, set
these options for a meter then run Regression analysis and Target options on graphs and reports as
normal.
This table contains the list of calendars used for defining the days when a building is
occupied. This feature is normally used so that only degree days which occur on occupied
days are counted when setting and monitoring against a weather-dependent target for energy
consumption. Alternatively, the number of occupied days per month can itself be used as the
determining factor for setting the target.
Each calendar must be kept up to date on an ongoing basis using the Calendar of applicable
days option on the Input menu. The same calendar can be used for different buildings which
are occupied at the same time.
To register a new calendar, click on Add calendar. Enter a short code, followed by a longer
description by which you can later refer to the calendar. The code is used to select the
calendar on the Define meter for M&T screen, while the description appears in the lookup
table alongside that code.
Be sure to press Enter after typing the description, otherwise DYNAMAT may leave it blank.
To delete a calendar, click on Delete calendar. DYNAMAT will not let you delete a calendar
which is in use.
 Applicable Days Schedules
Before applicable day calendars can be set up, one or more Schedules must be defined. A schedule
consists of 48 half hourly slots marked ON or OFF. It defines a type of day for inclusion in an applicable
day calendar.
The schedules are selected from a list. If one does not exist that fits with your calendar, the select Add to
create a new schedule.
