4.3 Interfaces of DI and DO
The digital output is realized by relay for remote control and alarm output.
The digital input is realized by digital signal input. The meter has a built-in +12V
working power supply so that it does not require external power supply. The meter collects
the external break-make information with digital input module and displays it locally. The
digital input not only collects and displays the local break-time information but also
provides the remote transmission, i.e. remote communication, with RS485.

5 Main functions and features
5.1 Measurement
Measure all electrical parameters, including voltage U, current I, active power P,
reactive power Q, apparent power S, power factor PF, Voltage imbalance, Current
imbalance, frequency, 31st harmonic content and total harmonic content . The measured
voltage U keeps one decimal place, the measured frequency F keeps two decimal places,
the measured current I keeps three decimal places and the measured power P keeps four
decimal places. Voltage imbalance and Current imbalance keeps four decimal places.
Example: U = 220.1V, f = 49.98HZ, I = 1.999A, P = 0.2199KW, △=0.00%
Supporting 4-way temperature measurement,range:-40~99℃,accuracy:±2℃
Supporting aftercurrent measurement,The initial range:0~1000mA,Range multiples
can be set(1~60).
5.2 Metering
It can measure the current combined active power, positive active power, reverse
active power, inductive reactive power, capacitive reactive power, as seen in the electric
power.
5.3 Demand
Demand-related concepts are listed as follows:
Demand Average power measured during the demand period
Max. demand Maximum amount of demand during a specified period of time
Sliding
window time
A recurrence method to measure the demand from any time point during a period shorter than the
demand period. The demand measured by this means is called sliding demand. The recurrence time is
sliding window time.
Demand
period
Time interval when the same average power is measured continuously, also known as window time
Measure eight maximum demands, i.e. A/B/C three-phase current ,positive active,
negative active, inductive reactive , capacitive reactive and apparent power demands and
the time of maximum demand.
5.4 Historical data
Record the historical data on electricity consumption covering previous 12 months
(including four quadrant and multi-rate tariff).
5.5 Digital input/ output
There are three -way Digital output. The Digital output is realized by relay for remote
control and alarm output. i.e. remote communication, with RS485.
5.6 Wireless Communication Function
The ADW350 supports NB and 4G communications. Specific agreements on NB and
4G communications can be obtained by contacting relevant personnel of our company.

7 Common troubleshooting
7.1 RS485 networking communication failure
Suggestion: Please first confirm whether the RS485 wiring is loose, AB connection
reverse and other problems, and then check the table through the button to see if the
general selection parameters, such as address, baud rate, check digit, etc., are set correctly.
7.2 Wireless communication failure of instrumentation
Suggestion: Please connect RS485 interface on the meter and USB convert to 485
serial port to read the parameters, and confirm whether the parameters are the same as the
upper terminal wireless configuration (channel and spread spectrum factor). If different,
please modify the meter’s wireless parameters and retest the master terminal after the same,
and if the same, it may be the meter and master terminal are in a relative long distance. It is
too far to communicate or the scene is seriously disturbed. We can try to use the external
antenna at the same time, or consider the newly added wireless master terminals, and then
test it.
