5.1.3: RS-4 4 85 / KYZ Output Com 2 (485P Option)
The 485P Option provides a combination RS-485 and a KYZ Pulse Output for pulsing energy
values. The RS-485 / KYZ Combo is located on the terminal section of the meter.
See section 2.2 for the KYZ Output Specifications. See section 6.3.1 for Pulse Constants.
RS485 allows you to connect one or multiple Shark 100 meters to a PC or other device, at either a
local or remote site. All RS485 connections are viable for up to 4000 feet (1219.20 meters).
As shown in Figure 5.4, to connect a Shark 100 to a PC, you need to use an RS485 to RS232
converter, such as EIG's Unicom 2500. See Section 5.1.3.1 for information on using the Unicom
2500 with the Shark 100.
