¶ VECTO Grid OS
VECTO Grid OS is a cloud-based software package for: collection, processing, storage, analysis, visualization, and reporting, of data collected by VECTO instruments in real-time. It translates thousands of data points into information that facilitates quick, data-driven decisions.
By collating all data into a single, accessible platform, engineers, managers, and operators can have a clear, shared view of the network performance across an entire network.
¶ Getting started with the VGOS Platform:
To get started with VECTO Grid OS, follow the steps below. The getting started pages will provide a step by step overview to get familiar with the platform interface and the basic tool set.
-
VGOS Interface
This section covers the overall interface of the platform. -
Add Intruments
This section explains how to add a new instrument and measurement point to VGOS.
-
If your instrument does not have a measurement point configured, see the section on measurement point setup for VGOS.
-
If you added an instrument to VGOS which already has a measurement point configured, then that measurement point will automatically be loaded onto VGOS once connection is established. This step can thus be skipped and no futher configuration is required.
