SMARTRAIL X835-MID
DIN Rail Smart Energy Meter for Single and
Three Phase Electrical Systems
1 Introduction
This document provides operating, maintenance and
installation instructions. This unit measures and displays
the characteristics of Single Phase Two Wire (1P2W), Three
Phase Three Wire (3P3W) and Three Phase Four Wire (3P4W)
networks. The measuring parameters include Voltage (V),
Current (A), Frequency (Hz), Power (kW/KVA/KVAr), Power
Factor (PF), Imported, Exported and Total Energy (kWh/kVArh).
The unit also measures Maximum Demand Current and Power,
this is measured over preset periods of up to 60 minutes.
This particular model accommodates 1A or 5A Current
Transformers and can be configured to work with a wide range
of CTs. It also comes with a complete comms capability with
built in Pulse and RS485 Modbus RTU outputs, configuration
is password protected.
This unit can be powered from a separate auxiliary supply (AC
or DC). Alternatively, it can be powered from the monitored
supply by linking the voltage reference and neutral reference in
to terminals 5 & 6 (Please refer to wiring diagram).
1.1 Unit Characteristics
The SMARTRAIL X835 can measure and display:
• Phase to Neutral Voltage and THD% (Total Harmonic
Distortion) of all Phases
• Line Frequency
• Current, Maximum Demand Current and Current THD% of
all Phases
• Power, Maximum Power Demand and Power Factor
• Imported, Exported & Total Active Energy
• Imported, Exported & Total Reactive Energy
The unit has a Password-Protected set up menu for:
• Changing the Password
• System Configuration - 1P2W, 3P3W, 3P4W.
• Demand Interval Time
• Reset for Demand Measurements
• Pulsed Output Duration
1.2 Current Transformer Primary Current
This unit requires configuring to operate with the appropriate
curren transformer(s), the optional secondary currents are
1A or 5A. It is programmed by inputting the ratio (CT Primary
divided by the CT Secondary). It can be used on primary
currents up to 6000A.
On the MID Version, you can only program
the CT Rate ONCE.
1.3 RS485 Serial – Modbus RTU
This unit is compatible with remote monitoring through RS485
Modbus RTU. Set-up screens are provided for configuring the
RS485 port. Refers to section 4.8.
1.4 Pulsed Outputs
The SMARTRAIL X835 has Two Pulsed Outputs that can be
set for active (kWh) or reactive (kVArh) energy. Terminals 11 &
12 have a fixed output of 3200imp/kWh. Terminals 9 & 10 are
configurable within the setup menu.

set the CT secondary
option: 5A (default) or 1A.
Set the CT Ratio Value:
Hold the
enter the CT Ratio setting
screen. The range is from
0001 to 9999.
The CT Rate is the CT Primary divided by the CT Secondary.
For Example: 200/5A Current Transformers - 200÷5=40, so the
CT Rate would be 0040 and the CT2 would be 5.
On the MID Version, you can only program
the CT Rate ONCE.

IB or IC using the
Hold the button for 3 seconds to exit the set up menu.
4.6 PT
The PT option sets the Secondary Voltage (PT2 100-500V) of the
Voltage Transformer (PT) that may be connected to the meter.
Use the
buttons to select the menu
option. The screen will
show the current setting.
The default value is 400V.
Secondary PT Setting:
Hold the
set the PT secondary
option: 100-500V.
Set the PT Ratio Value:
Hold the
enter the PT Ratio setting
screen. The range is from
0001 to 9999.
The PT Rate is the PT Primary divided by the PT Secondary.
For Example: Voltage Transformer - 11000÷110=100, so the
PT Rate would be 0100 and the PT2 would be 110.
