MyLight Systems SAS Position Designation Single or three-phase power supply Power light: On green: normal operation Flashing green: start-up / updates Flashing green and red every 300 ms: Internet failure On green for 3s, flashing red for 1 s: no communication with a PLC device.
Product P/N 4 Installation conditions The Smart Master G3 must be installed in a suitable place, in view of the information below: The ambient temperature, humidity and dust are compatible with the proper operation of the device (refer to RD1) The device must not be installed in direct sunlight or close to other heat sources.
MyLight Systems SAS 5 Internet connectivity options The Smart Master G3 operates with an Internet connection. This product can be connected to the Internet by an Ethernet cable, by PLC or by a modem. Choose the means of connection to the Internet before wiring the product.
Wi-Fi connection on the Internet router A Wi-Fi repeater can be used to connect to the router to establish Wi-Fi communication between the Smart Master G3 and the Internet router. Recommended P/N: WA850RE The connection is shown below. Wi-Fi repeater...
Technical notes on specific modem configurations can be found on the MyLight Systems website (e.g., backups). 5.4.1 Ethernet connection to the cellular modem The two devices can be connected by the LAN port on the Smart Master G3 and the LAN port on the cellular modem. MLSH-COM-2 RJ45 cable...
MyLight Systems SAS The cellular modem is a Smart Master G3 accessory. Refer to the user manual to install the equipment. 5.4.2 PLC connection on the cellular modem Depending on the configuration of the building, the cellular modem may be installed a long way from the Smart Master G3 (for better signal reception, for example).
MyLight Systems SAS Figure 7: Example of single-phase wiring 6.1.2 Three-phase power supply When connected to a three-phase power supply, the device must be protected by a 3P+N 2 A C curve circuit breaker or a four-pole 2 A C curve circuit breaker. In this configuration: the neutral (N) must be powered by the system neutral the three phases (L1, L2 and L3) must be powered by each of the system phases.
Figure 9: Example of use for relay wiring The Smart Master G3 relay is normally open. It is controlled by MyLight Systems software. In an emergency, press the relay button for 1 second to manually apply a voltage to the charge connected downstream of the relay.
Screw in the connector to lock. 6.3.2 Current transformer connections The Smart Master G3 smart meter has three inputs for current transformers. The transformers are equipped with a cable measuring about 60 cm. Perform the following steps to install a current transformer: Make sure that a dangerous voltage is not applied to the MG3 device by checking the position of the protective circuit breaker.
Up to 10 external RS485 devices can be connected to the product. These devices can be placed at a maximum distance of 100 m. The product is compatible with all the MyLight Systems meters and actuators. Details of the products are available on the website www.mylight-systems.com.
Figure 12: Example of the connection of RS485 devices Note: Several products can be connected to the same RS485 cable. The Smart Master G3 must always be at the master end of the RS485 cable. If the communication wire between several devices is longer than 10 m, a 120 Ohm resistor must be installed at the slave end.
