DIRIS A17 1. Documentation All DIRIS A17 documentations are available on the website at the following address: www.socomec.com/en/documentation-diris-a17 2. Danger and warning This equipment must be mounted only by professionals. The manufacturer shall not be held responsible for failure to comply with the instructions in this manual.
4. Presentation The DIRIS A17 is a 72x72 mm compact multifunction meter for measuring electrical network parameters. The DIRIS provides measurements of voltage, current, power and energy. With display and push buttons, users can easily access to all product functionalities. It includes an input and an output, and depending on the reference, it can includes a communication bus as well as the measurement of the harmonic distorsion rate.
6.1. General Information ® communication bus is available on DIRIS A17 QDE
DS The MODBUS It is achieved via an RS485 serial link (2 or 3 wires) for using products from a PC or an API.
According to the MODBUS protocol, transmission time must be less than 3 silences, i.e. the emission time of 3 characters so that the message is processed by the DIRIS A17. To use this information correctly, it is necessary to use the MODBUS ®...
