Issue:
The 3300 ACM is a legacy Power Measurement meter that has no on-board logs. Because it is not a modbus device, the only way to produce logged data is to use the VIP.
Product Line:
Power Monitoring Expert 7.2
Power Monitoring Expert 8.0
Environment:
VIP Logging Data for 3300 ACM
Cause:
In Power Monitoring Expert 8.0, there is a known issue where if a VIP is used to log data on behalf of a 3300 ACM, the VIP data recorders never get processed, so no data ever gets logged.
Resolution:
There is no workaround, however, a hotfix for this problem is attached to this article.
