  5. If using RS485 Modbus communication, connect the meter to the remote monitoring system using an RS485 cable.
  6. If using M-bus communication, connect the meter to the remote monitoring system using an M-bus cable.

Configuration
The SDM230 series meter offers various configuration options depending on the model:

  • For RS485 Modbus communication, use the provided set-up screens to configure the RS485 port.
  • For the SDM230-Mbus model, use the provided set-up screens to configure the M-bus port.
  • For the SDM230-2T model, set up the multi tariffs according to your requirements using the provided set-up screens.

Usage

The SDM230 series meter is designed to measure and display the characteristics of a single-phase two-wire network. It can be used for energy and power monitoring applications, as well as solar PV measurements. The meter supports bi-directional measurement, making it suitable for import and export energy monitoring.

Depending on the model, the meter can measure and display various parameters including voltage (U), current (I), power (P), reactive power (Q), apparent power (S), power factor (PF), frequency (Hz), demand (Dmd), energy consumption (kWh), and reactive energy consumption (kVArh).

Pulse Output
The meter provides two pulse outputs:

  • Pulse Output 1: This output can be configured to generate pulses representing total/import/export kWh or kVArh. The pulse constant can be set to generate 1 pulse per 0.001/0.01/0.1/1 kWh/kVArh (default is 0.001 export kWh). The pulse width can be set to 200/100/60ms.
  • Pulse Output 2: This output is non-configurable and fixed with active kWh (Imp). The constant is 1000imp/kWh.

Remote Communication

The meter supports remote communication with other AMR/SCADA systems:

  • For RS485 Modbus communication, use the provided RS485 serial port with Modbus RTU protocol to remotely monitor and control the unit.
  • For the SDM230-Mbus model, use the provided M-BUS serial port with M-BUS protocol to remotely monitor and control the unit.

Dual Source Measurement (Only for SDM230-2T)
The SDM230-2T model can measure energy from two different power supplies. For example, when the public grid is powered off and anelectric generator is on, the meter automatically switches to tariff 2 measurement.

Introduction

This document provides operating, maintenance and installation instructions for the SDM230 series made by Eastron Electronic Co., Ltd. The SDM230 series measures and displays the characteristics of a single-phase two wires (1p2w) network. The SDM230 series covers 5 models:SDM230-Modbus,SDM230-Pulse,SDM230- Mbus, SDM230-2T and SDM230M-DI.
The bi-directional measurement makes the meter suitable for import and e xp o rt e n e rg y a n d p o w e r monitoring applications, and also perfect for solar PV measurements. With RS485 Modbus and M-bus port, the meter is easy to remotely communicate with other AMR/SCADA systems.
