1. INTRODUCTION The Direct Connected Energy Meter is a DIN Rail mounted Digital Meter, primarily for bidirectional Active, Reactive and Apparent Energy measurement intended for use in industrial, commercial and residential electrical energy metering. It also accurately measures important electrical parameters like TRMS Voltage, TRMS Current, Frequency, Active / Reactive and Apparent Power, and Power Factor in Single Phase Networks.
2. LCD Display 2.1. Introduction The meter displays more than 80 measurement parameters including Total Energies, Tariff, Partial and also other important electrical parameters like Max Demand, Voltage, Current, Frequency, Active, Power, Reactive Power, Apparent Power and Power Factor on individual screens. The user can easily scroll and See System Parameter By Pressing Scroll key and By Pressing and Holding Scroll key for 5 Seconds the user can see Tarrif &...
2.2.3 Tariff Energies Indication This Instrument comes with 2 tariff based on Digital Input In the image given here, it indicates that the instrument is currently displaying the selected energy parameter (Import Active Energy) of Tariff 2. These Tariff energies and Demand parameters are available on display screen 2, For opening the Screen 2 Press and hold the Scroll Key for 5 Seconds TABLE 1 : Measurement Parameters:...

This will take the User into the Password Protection Entry Stage (Section 3.1). 3.1 Password Protection Password protection can be enabled to prevent unauthorized access to set-up screens, when default password protection is not enabled.
3.2 Setup Menu selection 3.2.1 Communication Parameter Selection 3.2.1.1 Address Setting This screen applies to the RS 485 output. This screen allows the user to set RS 485 address for the meter. The allowable range of addresses is 1 to 247. Press “...
Pressing the “ ” enter key advances to the “Parity & Stop bit Edit” mode & pressing the “ ’’scroll keys scrolls the value through: nonE1: no parity with one stop bit, nonE2: no parity with two stop bit, EVEn: even parity with one stop bit, odd: odd parity with one stop Pressing enter key sets the value and advances to “output parameter Selection”...
3.2.2.3 Pulse Duration This screen applies only to the Pulse Output. This screen allows the user to set pulse Output energization time in milliseconds. Pressing “ ” scroll key accepts the present value and advance to “Demand integration time” screen ( see section 3.2.2.4). Pressing the “...
3.2.2.7 New / Change Password This screen allows user to set password screen scrolling. Pressing “ ” scroll key accepts the present status and advance to the “quit screen” screen (see Section 3.2.2.8). Pressing the “ ”enter key advances to “Set password Edit” mode and pressing the “...

6. RS 485 ( ModBus ) Output : The Energy Meter supports MODBUS (RS485) RTU protocol (2-wire ) . Connection should be made using twisted pair shielded cable. All "A" and "B" connections are daisy chained together. The screens should also be connected to the “Gnd” terminal. To avoid the possibility of loop currents, an Earth connection should be made at one point on the network.

6.3 Accessing 4 X register for Long Energy Reading & Writing : For setting Energy start count in long energy format following query format should be used for writing energy start count. First, send query (at address 1790) to unlock the parameter. Query: (Query for Unlock to enter System Active Energy Import) Byte Count : Total number of data bytes transmitted.
Page 24
Once the Unlock query is sent, next send query for writing Energy start count. For Example: Query for writing energy start count of 999999999 for System Active Import Energy Note: Refer TABLE 2 for register address of the selected parameter. Query: (Query enter System Active Energy Import) Byte Count : Total number of data bytes received.
