About This Manual This reference manual explains how to operate and configure ACCESS 9340/9360 Meter. Unless otherwise noted, the information contained in this manual refers to the following ACCESS 9340/9360 Meter: • ACCESS 9340/9360 Meter with integrated display (9340DC and 9360DC) •...
For instructions on using ION setup or WinPM.Net, refer to the appropriate online help, User Guide, or Commissioning Guide. NOTE: The ACCESS 9340/9360 Meter is supported only by ION setup 2.1 SP1 or higher and WinPM.Net 3.2 SP1 or higher. EN–2...
The meter is equipped with RS485 communications for integration into any power monitoring and control system. However, WinPM.Net from the ACCESS family of Siemens, which is written specifically for power monitoring and control, best supports the meter’s advanced features.

ACCESS 9340/9360 Meter With Remote Display NOTE: The remote display kit (9340-DISPKIT or 9360-DISPKIT) is used with a meter without a display. See “ACCESS 9340/9360 Meter Without Display” on page 5 for the parts of the meter without a display.
NOTE: Min/Max values for Vng and In are not available from the display. Use the display to read registers (see “Read and Write Registers” on page 36) or the ACCESS 9340/9360 Min/Max Reading Table in WinPM.Net (refer to WinPM.Net Help for more information).
Power Factor Sign Conventions The meter can be set to one of two power factor sign conventions: IEEE or IEC. The ACCESS 9340/9360 defaults to the IEEE power factor sign convention. Figure 4–2 illustrates the two sign conventions. For instructions on changing the power factor sign convention, refer to “Advanced Meter Setup Options”...

In this mode, only the kVARh flowing out of the load is considered. The last seven modes in the list above are for pulse initiator applications. All ACCESS 9340/9360 Meters are equipped with one solid-state pulse output rated at 100 mA. The solid-state output provides the long life—billions of operations—required for...
WinPM.Net can be used to configure any of the advanced alarm types within the ACCESS 9340/9360 meter, but the meter display cannot be used. Also, use WinPM.Net to delete an alarm and create a new alarm for evaluating other metered quantities.
2/2008 Chapter 8—Logging Data Logs The ACCESS 9340 records and stores readings at regularly scheduled intervals in one independent data log. The ACCESS 9360 records and stores meter readings at regularly scheduled intervals in up to three independent data logs. Some data log files are preconfigured at the factory.
2/2008 Chapter 8—Logging Alarm-driven Data Log Entries The ACCESS 9340 and 9360 can detect over 50 alarm conditions, including over/under conditions, digital input changes, phase unbalance conditions, and more. (See Chapter 6—Basic Alarms on page71 for more information.) Use WinPM.Net to assign each alarm condition one or more tasks, including forcing data log entries into one or more data log files.
(THD) and other power quality parameters. NOTE: Disturbance waveform captures are available in the ACCESS 9360 only. In the ACCESS 9340/9360, the waveform capture records five individual three-cycle captures at 128 samples per cycle simultaneously on all six metered channels (see “Channel Selection in ION Setup”...
