1 Introduction The MFC-300/I-IAC and I-IDC are precise, highly reliable and versatile microcontrolled devices designed to read, display and retransmit AC or DC current values. They feature one isolated RS-485 port, which can be used for communication using the MODBUS or DNP3 protocols.
2 Front panel indication During operation, the MFC-300/I-IAC and MFC-300/I-IDC alternates between each in- put’s current indication. The presented value is equal to the measured current multiplied by the Sampling Factor parameter. If more than 2 inputs are used, a timer automatically changes the channels on display.
3 Configuration Parameterization The MFC-300/I-IAC and MFC-300/I-IDC feature 4 keys to access their functions. The procedure to configure any parameter is as follows: 1. Press the P key to enter the parameters menu. 2. Enter the currently configured 4 letter password one letter at a time, using the keys to select each letter and P to advance between letters.
4 Programmable parameters The MFC-300/I-IAC and MFC-300/I-IDC were developed to provide the user with the greatest possible flexiblity, such that all supervision and configuration can be executed on-site or remotely through the existing communication channels. We define all user-configurable parameters below.
