Up (1) Value 1 2 4 8 16 32
Address Examples
1 Up Down Down Down Down Down
1+2+4 = 7 Up Up Up Down Down Down

1+2+16+32 = 51 Up Up Down Down Up Up

Modbus integration with the AK-SM 800A
Step 1: Set the Modbus address
Step 2: Perform a network scan from the AK-SM 800A
For more information about data communication see document RC8AC and the AK-SM 800A manual. Pay special attention to the AK-SM 800A manual if devices with a different baud rate than 38.400 baud are connected to the AK-SM 800A, e.g. the variable speed compressor type SLV.

Phase Status LED

All/ Single phase LED Indication Description
All Red, Yellow,
Green for 3 x 1 second Power up sequence
All Red / Green continuous flashing Overvoltage warning.

Line voltage too high.
DISCONNECT power immediately!
All| OFF| Watt Node not operating.
Check that the wiring and voltages are correct
All| Red for 3 seconds or more| Watt Node Error.
If you see this happen repeatedly, replace the meter
Single| Green| No power but line voltage is present on this phase
Single| OFF| No voltage on this phase
Single| Red continuous flashing| Negative power on this phase (Re-versed CT’s, swapped CT wires or CT not matching line voltage phase)
Single| Flashing Green| Positive power on this phase

Modbus Com LED

LED Indication Description
Green flash Valid packet for this device
Yellow flash Valid packets for different device
Red for 1 second Invalid packet (bad baud rate, noise, …)
Red / Yellow continuous flashing Possible address conflict (two devices with

same address)
Red| Address set to 0 (zero)

Precautions

  1. Only qualified personnel or licensed electricians should install the Watt Node meter. The mains voltages can be lethal!
  2. Follow all applicable local and national electrical and safety codes.
  3. The terminal block screws are not insulated. Do not contact metal tools to the screw terminals if the circuit is live!
  4. Verify that circuit voltages and currents are within the proper range for the meter model.
  5. Use only UL listed or UL recognized current transformers (CTs) with built-in burden resistors, that generate 0.333 Vac (333 millivolts AC) at rated current. Do not use current output (ratio) CTs such as 1 amp or 5 amp output CTs: they will destroy the meter and may create a shock hazard.
  6. Protect the line voltage phase conductors, typically #14 or #12 AWG with 3 pole 15 A or 20 A breaker. Depending on location, breaker may provide disconnect means.
  7. Equipment must be disconnected from the HAZARDOUS LIVE voltages before access.
  8. If the meter is not installed correctly, the safety protections may be impaired.
