device. The system will execute a statistical analysis for the data collected during this period, thereby helps users to develop the most effective energy

saving policy. Some of the devices which have been loaded with energy saving policies may need to relearn.

The system marks the device stage by setting the device status. The status of the device which is at learning stage is "Learning Stage". The status

"Learning Stage" has following characteristics:

The status of all the newly added devices will be set to "Learning Stage" by default.

The device which is at learning stage will only monitor the power consumption, and it can't apply any control policy.

All the devices which are in "Enable Policy" status can be reset to "Learning Stage".

The device status will be automatically set to "Enable Policy" after learning stage.

The system will automatically analyze all the devices that have been applied policies, and will specify the devices that need to re-enter into learning

stage.
