INSTALLATION GUIDE
CONFIGURING CT VALUES AND SETTING ALARM THRESHOLDS
Configure CT values and alarm thresholds with the software configuration utility or by writing to Modbus protocol registers.

Under Voltage Alarm Threshold
occurs if the average L-L voltage is less than this threshold for at least 1- seconds

Over Current Alarm Threshold Register
occurs if any phase current is greater than this threshold at any time

Meter Alarm Status Register
This register holds in memory any alarm that has occurred in the meter. Conditions that caused
an alarm and then returned to normal states are visible in this register. To clear the latching
alarms, write a 0 to the desired bit.

Phase Loss Threshold
Sets the maximum to deviation of any phase voltage compared the average L-N voltage

Meter Alarm Status
This register holds the instantaneous state of the meter alarms. Alarms in this register represent
present conditions only.
49

Non Latching
Modbus Function Codes Supported
3, read holding registers
6, preset single register
17, report slave ID
* Correct conversion to engineering units requires use of integer multiplier. For example: To set
over-voltage threshold (#31) to 235 V:
235V = 2350
0.1
2350 is the value to write to #31
