1. Current scale is the primary side current of a 0.333V CT. CTs with an output voltage exceeding 0.333V should not be used. For a CT ratio of 20A / 0.333 V this will be 20.0 10 = 200. If a Rogowski coil is installed this value will need to be calculated from the coils mV/1000A rating. Rogowski conversion is calculated by (333.33 mV / x mV )1000A * 10(scale).
2. Voltage scale is the PT ratio expressed as a decimal, and multiplied by 100. A potential transformer of 25:10 would give a ratio of 25 / 10 = 2.5, appropriately scaled it would be 2.5*100 = 250.

Logging Registers

• EMX Logging:
• Logging on the EMX is only available on models with firmware 2.0 or greater.
• Log Source 1 – Log source 12 set the source for the logging. Write the Modbus register 1-188 to the desired source to log that point. If a Modbus register has multiple register all registers need to be set. For example, if Real Net Energy total is desired to be logged all four registers need to be set.
• To trigger a log event Logging – Trigger Source needs to be set to the desired trigger mode, by default it is set to be disabled. Logging can be triggered with the timer, set on Modbus point 5001 in seconds from 15-3600. Triggering can be set over COMMS by writing point 5015 a 1, or Pulse In 1 or 2 can be set to trigger a log whenever a pulse isa detected

Modbus Functions

• The EMX supports the following functions of the Modbus Application Protocol Specification, vl .1 b3.
• Examples are intended to be representative; refer to the full specification for questions or clarification.

Notes:

• The device address defaults to 247 (OxF7).
• EMX device supports Modbus RTU encoding only (not ASCII).
• Refer to the Modbus standard for CRC/LRC calculation procedures

Data Types
Natively, Mod bus holding register functions only support the UINT16 type (2 bytes). The meter constructs additional types from two or more consecutive registers. Client interface software must support the same construction for proper communication:

UINT32 data always occupies two registers (4 bytes) in network byte order {MSB first). Read and write
operations should address both registers.
The following examples show UINT32 encodings in a Mod bus PDU beginning at byte [n], register [r]:

0x03 Read Holding Registers
Returns one or more registers in a contiguous block: Successful reads return the contents of the requested registers:

Example 1: Read the line frequency of <DA (026).

0x04 Read Input Register
Reads one or more read only registers in a contiguous block:

Ox06 Write Single Register
Writes a value to a single register Ox1 O Write Multiple Registers
Writes one or more registers in a contiguous block:

MODBUS Exception Codes

If many cases when the Modbus interface encounters an error it will return an exception code. The most  common errors are described in the table below. Additional information about exception codes may be found in the reference document.
Reference: https://modbus.org_/docs/Modbus_Application_protocol_V1 1 b.pdf

MODBUS Exception Codes

Code

| ****

Name

| ****

Meaning

01

| ****

ILLEGAL FUNCTION

| The function code received in the query is not an allowable action for the server (or slave). This may be because the function code is only applicable to newer devices, and was not implemented in the unit selected. It could also indicate that the server (or slave) is in the wrong state to process a request of this type, for example because it is unconfigured and is being asked to return register values.

02

| ****

ILLEGAL DATA ADDRESS

| The data address received in the query is not an allowable address for the server (or slave). More specifically, the combination of reference number and transfer length is invalid. For a controller with 100 registers, the PDU addresses the first register as 0, and the last one as 99. If a request is submitted with a starting register address of 96 and a quantity of registers of 4, then this request will successfully operate (address-wise at least) on registers 96, 97, 98, 99. If a request is submitted with a starting register address of 96 and a quantity of registers of 5, then this request will fail with Exception Code 0x02 “Illegal Data Address” since it attempts to operate on registers 96, 97, 98, 99 and 100, and there is no register

with address 100.

03

| ****

ILLEGAL DATA VALUE

| ****

A value contained in the query data field is not an allowable value for server (or slave). This indicates a fault in the structure of the remainder of a complex request, such as that the implied length is incorrect. It specifically does NOT mean that a data item submitted for storage in a register has a value outside the expectation of the application program, since the MODBUS protocol is unaware of the significance of any particular value of any particular register.

Data Type Conversions

• The following sections provide information on how to convert from the standard U 16 registers that Mod bus provides into other formats. Some controllers or Modbus interfaces provide these conversions, in which case the user should utilize those methods, instead of the following conversions.

• U 16 to 116 Conversion

• Conversion from a signed requires checking if the value is value returned (VAIUE) is greater than the maximum for an 16 bit integer (32767), if the value is greater then the value

• 65536 must be subtracted off to calculate a negative value.

• If VALUE > 32767

• Then : VALUE= VALUE – 65536

• Otherwise : VALUE= VALUE (do nothing)

• Example:

• Reading register 005 (Real power total) the device responds with 64536. This value is greater than 32767, which means it must be adjusted. By subtracting 65536 we get 64536 – 65536 = -1000, which is the correct value for the real power. Please note that in practice a scale value will need to be determined and applied to this output in order to get the value into watts or whatever units are applicable.

• U 16 to U32 Conversion

• Conversion from two unsigned 16 bit registers into a 32 bit value can be done by reading the two necessary registers and multiplying the first (lower register address) register by 32678 and adding the second register.
  VALUE= (REGISTER_LOW * 65536) + REGISTER_HIGH

• Example :
  Reading registers 035 and 036 which together are the system power on time. Register 035 has a value
  (REGISTER_LOW) of 6, register 036 (REGISTER_HIGH) has a value of 38784. Using the calculation we get (6 65536) + 38784 = 432000. This corresponds to the time in seconds that the device has been powered on. 5 Days = 5 24 60 60 = 432000 seconds.

• U 16 to U64 Conversion
  Conversion from 4 unsigned 16 bit registers to a 64 bit register is necessary for using the energy accumulators on the EMX. This is done to maintain system accuracy over long operating durations, and to avoid conditions where the energies appear to cease updating. This follows a similar pattern as the U32 conversion. All four registers must be read, preferably simultaneously with a multi-register read operation. The lowest address register is REG 1, the highest is REG 4.
  VALUE= REG_ 1 2″48 + REG_2 2″32 + REG3 * 2″ 16 + REG 4
  Or without the power notation
  VALUE= REG_ 1 281,474,976,710,656 + REG_2 4,294,967,296 + REG3 * 65536 + REG 4

• Example :

• Reading registers 091 /092/093/094 which correspond to the Real Import Energy Total (how much energy has been consumed by downstream devices). Register 091 (REG_ 1) reads 0, register 092 (REG_2) reads 13, register 093 (REG3) reads 63559 and register 094 (REG 4) reads 22528. The calculation is 0 281,474,976,710,656 + 13 4,294,967,296 + 63559 * 65536 + 22528 = 60000000000 when scaled down by the scale of 0.00000001 given in the table it’s 600.0 which is the number of Watt Hours of energy that the device has metered at that point.

• U 16 to 164 Conversion
  All of the net energy registers are signed values. A negative sign indicates that net power has been exported, a positive sign indicates that net power has been imported (consumed). To convert from four U 16 registers to an 164 register first perform a conversion as described above. Next perform the following step:

• If VALUE > (2A63 )- 1

• Then VALUE= VALUE- 2A64

• Otherwise VALUE= VALUE (do nothing).
