3.5 GENERAL SAFETY AND INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS

  • Connection and protection must be done in accordance with local standards
  • Do not work on the Meter Interface or system if it is still connected to a power source. Only allow changes in your electrical system to be carried out by qualified electricians
  • Check the wiring at least once a year. Defects such as loose connections, burned cables, etc. must be corrected immediately

OVERVIEW

4.1 DESCRIPTION
The Meter Interface (MI) accepts inputs from external AC and DC power metering sensors such as: AC and DC voltage and amps, AC k Watts, and DC battery capacity in amp hours and percent remaining. All with user definable high and low alarms. The MI processes the information from these inputs and broadcasts it onto the CZone bus.
4.2 FEATURES
AC

  • 3 x AC voltage inputs (multi voltage)
  • 2 x AC current inputs
  • Calculates true RMS power

DC

  • 3 x DC voltage inputs (multi voltage)
  • 2 x DC current inputs
  • Calculates battery capacity as Ampere hours and percentage charge remaining
  • Resolution for current metering down to 0.1A

Other

  • IPX5 water ingress protection
  • Outputs standard NMEA2000 power monitoring sentences
  • Dimensions: H 100 mm (3”29/32) x W 156 mm (6”3/32) x D 42 mm (1”5/8) Weight: 281 g

  2. Network Status LED
  3. NMEA 2000 Plug
  4. Cable Gland
  5. Cover Retaining Screws
  6. Module Cover

Installation

5.1 GUIDELINES

  • Ensure the modules are installed vertically with the cables exiting downwards, this ensures IPX5 rating is retained.
  • All seals and cable glands must be fitted including blanking plugs inserted in any unused positions.
  • Ensure all labels are fitted and correctCZONE 80 911 0005 00 Meter Interface - Mounting

5.2 DC CONNECTIONS
All DC Connections are made on the 8Way connector.

  • Connect each of the voltage inputs to the MI from battery banks. Ensure each input is fused at supply with a 1A fuse.

  • Voltage Input 3 is a voltage meter only.

  • Connect the current input from each shunt. Ensure care is taken when wiring shunt into heavy DC system to make sure no negatives are left on the battery side of shunt.
    Note: Current Input 1 is matched to Voltage Input 1, and Current Input 2 is matched to Voltage Input 2. For correct metering these must be matched to same DC supply.

  • Connect DC negative to MI input 8. Used as a reference to ground.

  • Connect an NMEA2000 drop cable from the MI to the NMEA2000 backbone.

  • Ensure NMEA2000 network is properly terminated and connected to 12V power source.CZONE 80 911 0005 00 Meter Interface - DC CONNECTIONS

5.3 AC CONNECTIONS
AC connection and protection must be done in accordance with local standards. Do not work on the Meter Interface or system if it is still connected to a power source. Only allow changes in your electrical system to be carried out by qualified electricians. All AC connections are made on the 6 Way connector.

  • Connect voltage inputs from AC voltage transformer to MI, inputs 2, 4 and 5.
    **** Ensure voltage inputs are wired from the voltage transformer and not directly from the AC power source. Part # AC-VSEN-4

  • Connect current inputs from each current transformer to MI, inputs 1 and 3.
    Note: Current Input 1 and Voltage Input 1 are paired inputs, as are Current Input 2 and Voltage Input 2. For correct metering these must be matched to same supply source.

  • Connect transformer common to input 6 from the Voltage Transformer.

  • Ensure the potted end of the current transformer is facing the line direction. Part # CT-10-3CZONE 80 911 0005 00 Meter Interface - AC CONNECTIONS

5.4 DIP SWITCH

  • Using a small screwdriver, carefully set the dip switch to required setting.
  • The dip switch number must be unique for all modules on the CZone network and must match the dip switch setting in the configuration to function correctly.CZONE 80 911 0005 00 Meter Interface - DIPSWITCH

5.5 INITIAL POWER UP

  1. Check all plugs are securely seated and connections are tight.
  2. Power up the NMEA2000 network.
  3. Check that the NMEA2000 Network LED lights up. It may also be flashing if other devices are present and transmitting data.
  4. Check that the Power indicator LED is green.
  5. Check the circuit’s status LEDs for each individual circuit. Refer to LED codes to diagnose any faults which need to be rectified.
  6. Check the software version on the Meter Interface with the CZone Configuration Tool and update if necessary.
  7. Refer to the CZone Configuration Tool Instructions for details on how to configure and calibrate the Meter Interface inputs.
  8. Write configuration file to the Meter Interface and the rest of the CZone modules on the system.
  9. Test all inputs for configured functionality.

Labelling

7.1 CONNECTIONS/LED FLASH CODE LABEL
This label is located on the inside of the front lid of the unit, it shows the LED codes and electrical connections to the unit:
CZONE 80 911 0005 00 Meter Interface - Module Labeling 7.2 MODULE IDENTIFICATION AND DIP SWITCH LABEL
These labels allow easy identification of each module whilst recording the dip switch setting. These labels are to be fitted to the cover and to the module (this prevents covers being swapped). To record the module type and dip switch settings use a permanent marker and strike through the applicable boxes (a strike through on a dip switch box indicates that switch is on).
