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.

Over Voltage Alarm Threshold

occurs if the average L-L voltage is greater than this threshold at any time

31

0-65535 V*

65535 V

Under Voltage Alarm Threshold

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

32

0-65535 V*

0 V

Over Current Alarm Threshold Register

occurs if any phase current is greater than this threshold at any time

33

65535 A

Under Current Alarm Threshold

occurs if any phase current is less than this threshold at any time

Over kVA Alarm Threshold Register

occurs if the total apparent power is greater than this threshold at any time

Under kVA Alarm Threshold

occurs if the total apparent power is less 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.

Bit 0

Over Current

Bit 1

Under Current

Bit 2

Over kVA

Bit 3

Under kVA

Bit 4

Over Voltage

Bit 5

Phase Loss Threshold

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

38

0-100%

65535 (disabled)

Meter Alarm Status

This register holds the instantaneous state of the meter alarms. Alarms in this register represent

present conditions only.

49

n/a

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
