Etap Power Station 4 Description
Etap Power Station 4 Description
an be a relay view where all protective devices are displayed. Another presenta
tion may show a one-line diagram with some circuit breakers shown and the rest h
idden (a layout best suited for load flow results).
Among PowerStation s most powerful features are the composite network and motor el
ements. Composite elements allow you to graphically nest network elements withi
n themselves to an arbitrary depth. For example, a composite network can contai
n other composite networks, providing the capability to construct complex electr
ical networks while still maintaining a clean, uncluttered diagram that displays
what you want to emphasize - yet the next level of system detail is within easy
reach of your mouse. The power is at your fingertips.
We consider PowerStation to be the foremost-integrated database for electrical s
ystems, allowing you to have multiple presentations of a system for different an
alysis or design purposes.

Within each project, PowerStation provides three major system components. These
system components are organized in an orthogonal fashion (independent from each
other) to provide you with the ultimate power and flexibility when developing Po
werStation projects.

OLE Client
OLE is a program-integration technology used to share information between progra
ms. Many Windows programs including Microsoft Office are OLE capable. Within P
owerStation, you can insert OLE objects such as bitmaps, text, spreadsheets, tab
les, and metafiles onto your one-line diagrams.

Crystal Reports
Crystal Reports are full-color, printable reports for a variety of PowerStation
analyses. Each Crystal Report is pre-configured for commonly requested output f
ormats. The Crystal Reports browser/printer is available within PowerStation.
Users can create and modify existing Crystal Reports using a Crystal Reports edi
tor.
Annotation Display Options
With independent display options for each PowerStation mode (Edit, Load Flow, Sh
ort-Circuit, etc.), you can display certain types of information in one mode and
other types of information when in another mode.
