The switch output of the instrument adopts relay output with two control mode:

1. alarm mode(“SEL”is not zero);
2. bus control mode (“SEL”is selected as “0. do” and level output for zero “dLy”.When “dLy” is not zero, it is automatically cut off after do action in the set delay time. )

Set Do output type in the “SEL”. “0. do” usually refers to communication control (if “dLy”is set to 0, the output is level or pulse. If dly is set to 2, the circuit will be off after closingfor two seconds) Others are alarm control (see list below).

“dLy”refers to alarm delay (which is not recommended to set as 0 to prevent disturbance or mistake.Pulse or level output control for Do output type)

“bAnd” refers to setting of the non-action band

AL.Hi” refers to the setting of high alarm humber (no need to set the max. 9999)

“AL.Lo” refers to the setting of low alarm number (no need to set the min. -9999

(The above three settings correspond to the energy display which contains decimal point. Eg.input220V 100A/5A, three-phase four-wire, the calculation of 100% P total is 2201003=66kW. If high alarmfor 100% power, return for 90% power, the “AL.Hi” can be set to 66.00, the “bAnd” to 6.00. If highalarm for 100% voltage, return for 95% voltage, the “AL.Hi” can be set to 220.0, the “bAnd” to11.0. If high alarm for 100% current, return for 95% current, the “AL.Hi” can be set to 100.0, the“bAnd” to 5.0)

“In.=0”refers to whether low alarm is allowed if the signal is 0. Lo. on enable it and Lo.of disable it.

Unbalance calculation

(Difference between the max.mean deviation and the mean value)/mean value*100%. If the mean value

in the denomintor is less than the rated value, the denomintor will be the rated value.

Rated voltage value Ue: three-phase four-wire Ue is phase voltage. The 400Vinstrument set in themenu is 220VPT, and 100V instrument is 57VPT.

Rated current value Ie: 5ACT for 5A instrument, 1ACT for 1A instrument.

The parameter setting for the unblance is in the percentage form, such as 20 refers to 20%

Programming Cases

Communication Connection

The instrument provides asynchronous half-duplex RS485 communication interface wich adoptsMODBUS-RTU protocol so all kinds of data can be transmitted on the communication line. Theoretically,one communication line can be connected with up to 128 instruments, each of which can set a communicationaddress (Addr) and communication rate (baud) via setting.

For the communication connection, we recommend to use the three-core shielding wire .The core wiresare connected to A,B,COM2 respectively and the shielding layer is connected to the ground. COM2 isforbidden to have ground connection. When laying the wires, the communication line shall be kept awayfrom the strong current cable or other strong electric field.

It is recommended to add a matching resistor between A and B of the end instruments. The resistancerange is 120Ω～10kΩ.

See 7.6 for specific connection case.

Transmitting Method

The information transmission is asynchronous and in bytes. The communication message tranmittedfrom the master to the slave is in 10-bit format including 1 start bit,8 data bit(LSB first delivered),noparity bit, one stop bit. If parity bit or 2 stop bit is et, the format is 11-bit.

Information Frame Format

Address code : the address code is in the beginning of the frame, which is composed of a byte (8bit binary code)representing 0~255 in decimal system. The PZ instrument only uses 1～247 and keepsother addresses. The bits indicate the  address of the terminal device designated by the user. The device will receive the data from the linked master. The address of every terminal device must be unique.Only the end addressed will correspond to the query containing its address. When the terminal sendsback a response, the responding slave address will tell the master which terminal is communicatingwith it.

Function code: the function code tells the addressed termnial to carry out which functions. Thetable below lists up the function codes used by this instrument as well as their meanings and funcitons.

more registers.
10H| Preset multi-register| Set the binary value into a series of multi- register

Data zone: the data zone contains the data needed for carrying out certain functions or collectedwhen the terminal responds to the query. The content of the data may  be number, reference address orset value. For example: if the function code tells the terminal to read a register,the data zone needsto specifiy which register to start with  and how much data to be read. The embedded address and datawill vary with types and different content of the slaves.

CRC check code:CRC field occupies two bytes including one 16-bit binary value. The CRC value iscalculated by the transmitting devicie then added to the data frame. The receiving device willrecalculate the CRC value upon receiving the data then compare it with the received value in the CRCfield. If the two values are not identical, there is an error.

The procedure to generate a CRC

Preset a 16-bit register as 0FFFFH (full 1), which is called CRC register.

Make XOR calculation with 8 bit of the first byte in the data frame and the lower byte in the CRCregister and store the result into the CRC register.

Shift the CRC register right a bit and fill the MSB with 0 and take out the LSB for checking.

If the LSB is 0, repeat step 3 (one more shift); if the LSB is 1, m,ake XOR calculation withCRC register and preset fixed value (0A001H).

Repeat step three and step four until the 8th shift. The entire 8 bit processing is complete inthis way.

Repeat step two to five to process the next 8 bits until all bytes are processed. Finally, the CRC register value becomes the CRC value.

Besides, there is also a wayt to calculate CRC using the preset table. It is characterized by rapid calculation speed. However, the table needs relatively large storage room. We willnot introduce it here, please refer to relevant materials

Function Code Introduction

Function Code 03H or 04H: Reading Register

The function allows the user to obtain the data collected and recorded by the device and system parameters. The data number requested by the master computer for one time has no limitation but cannot exceed the defined address range.

The following examples are 3 basic data read from 01 slave computer (every addressin the dataframe takes up 2 bytes):UAB, UBC, UCA. Among them, UAB’s address is 0028H, UBC’s address is 0029Hand UCA’s address is 002AH

Function Code 10H: Writing Register

The function code 10H allows the user to change the contents of multiple registers. The functioncode can be used to write the system parameters and switch output status. The master computer can writea maximum of 16 pieces of data (32 bytes) atonce.

The following example shows than when the preset address is 01, the switch outputis Do1. The switchinput/output status indication register’s address is 0022H. The 9 12 bit corresponds to DI1-DI4, the13-14 bit corresponds to D01-D02 respectively.

Communication Application Details

he instrument design has a uniform planning for the communication address list. The user can easilyrealize the functions of remote measurement, remote signalling and remote control according to thefollowing introduction

Switch Input and Output

The switch input of the instrument adopts dry contact switch signal input method. The instrumentis equipped with +5V operating power inside so it does not  needexternal power supply. When the externalcontact is close or open, the instrument will show the switch status locally. At the same time, thecommunication port of the instrument can realize the long distance transmission function, i.e., the“remote  signalling” function.

When the switch output is the relay output, the instrument can not only be remotely controlledby the upper computer(two ways of remote control:1.level triggering 2. Pulse triggering) to realize“remote control” function but also realize corresponding alarm function upon customer’s request(such as overcurrent, undervoltage).

The communication address related to the switch input/output is 0022H with relations to the switchI/O as below:
