6.1 Voltage input
The input voltage should not exceed 120% of the rated input voltage of the product (100V or 110V or 400V or 690V). Otherwise, the PT should be used; a 1A fuse must be installed on the voltage input; the wiring method of the product must be set according to the PT wiring of the product. The wiring method is as follows: Wiring method Selection
2 elements 3P3W
3 elements 3P4W
6.2 Current input
The standard rated input current is 1A or 5A. It requires the use of an external CT (recommended to use a wiring strip, not directly
connected to the CT, in order to facilitate disassembly); ensure that the input current corresponds to the voltage, the phase sequence is consistent and the direction is consistent; if There are other meters connected in the CT circuit used, the wiring should be connected in
series.Before removing the current input connection of the product, be sure to disconnect the CT primary circuit or short the secondary
circuit!
6.3 Communication Wiring
The meter provides asynchronous half-duplex RS485 communication interface, using MODBUS-RTU
protocol, various data information can be transmitted on the communication line. Theoretically, up to 128 power meters can be connected simultaneously on a single line. Communication
address of each power meter can be set. When wiring, keep communication lines away from power cables or other strong
electric-magnetic field

Note: For high alarm types, the recovered value must be less than the alarm value. For low alarm types, the recovered value must be greater than the alarm value. The following is a schematic of how the meter handles alarm parameters.
Alarm description: The meter has two groups of alarms. Each group of alarms can detect a variety of alarm conditions, including changes in the
inputs of the electronic parameters, phase loss, reverse phase sequence, unbalance, and harmonics. The switch input and reverse phase
sequence only need to set the enable bit, and other alarms need to set the alarm condition. 7.5.7 Alarm Type Description
7.5.7.1 Electric parameter alarm
Overcurrent: Zero alarm setting does not apply to overcurrent alarm. When the single phase current is greater than or equal to the
action value and meets the set action delay time, the single phase overcurrent alarm starts; when the single phase current is lower than
the set recovered value and meets the delay time. The single phase overcurrent alarm is released. Undercurrent: When the single phase current is lower than or equal to the action value and meets the set action delay time, the
single phase undercurrent alarm starts; when the single phase current is greater than the recovered value and meets the delay time, the
single phase undercurrent alarm is released. Note: When undercurrent alarm and zero alarm is enabled, single phase current is equal to 0, the alarm is valid; when
31
undercurrent is enabled and zero alarm is forbidden, when single phase current is equal to 0, the alarm is invalid. 7.5.7.2 Phase current loss alarm When any current (not all current) is equal to or lower than the action value and meets the delay time, phase A current loss alarm
occurs; and when any of the following conditions occurs, the alarm is released: The three-phase current is greater than the recovered value and meets the delay time The three-phase current is lower than the phase loss action value. 7.5.7.3 Reverse phase sequence alarm: The values of action and recovery and delay time are not applicable to the reverse phase sequence alarm. When the phase
sequence is not ABC normal phase sequence, an inverse phase sequence alarm is generated. 7.5.7.4 DI alarm When the DI state changes from the initial state, an alarm is generated. Examples are as follows: Set Phase A overcurrent alarm of the first group of alarm enabled. Action value: The action value is a primary value. For example, if the alarm value is set to 5.500A, when Phase A current value exceeds 5.500A, the alarm condition is triggered and the timer starts. Action delay time: When the alarm condition is triggered, if Phase A current value exceeds 5.500A, an alarm record will be generated after the setted delay time (accurate to the second), Alarm group (alarm 1), alarm type (Phase A overcurrent), alarm time
(eg: 2017-5-12 14:15:20) will be recorded. If DO is associated with this alarm, the DO acts (see DO settings). Recovered value: The recovered value is a primary value. For example, if the recovered value is set to 5.400A, after Phase A
overcurrent alarm has occurred, when Phase A current value is lower than 5.400A, the released alarm condition is triggered and
the timer starts. . Recovered delay time: When the triggered alarm condition is released, if Phase A current value has been lower than 5.400A, the released alarm record will be generated after the setted delay time (accurate to second), and the alarm group (Alarm1), alarm
type (Phase A overcurrent), the released alarm time (eg 2017-5-12 14:17:20) will be recorded. If DO is associated with this alarm, the DO returns to its initial state. It can be calculated that the alarm duration is 2 minutes. Note: The alarm is invalid when both the action value and the recovered value are zero. 7.5.8 Demand setting
1. Press ◀▶ until you select dMd and press the Enter key. 2. Set the window time (Wid) (1, 2, 3, 5) and press the Enter key. 3. Set the demand period (Pd) (1-60), which must be set to an integral multiple of the sliding window time and press the Enter key. 4. Press the SET button to return.
32
Demand calculation method: APM series meters use the sliding window method to calculate the demand. In the sliding window calculation cycle, select a
calculation period (Period) and a sliding window (Width). The calculation cycle of sliding window must be divided equally. For example, three 5-minute sliding windows (Wid = 5, Pd = 15) are set in a 15 minute calculation cycle. Refresh the current demand at
the end of each sliding window. The schematic diagram is as follows:

subclass, press the Enter ke.Select whether to enable,press the Enter key. A DO can select multiple alarms for combined alarms. 2) If communication (COM) control is selected, modify the delay (DLY)time ranged 0-9999, unit 1 second. When it is set to 0, it is a
level control. When it is not 0, it is a pulse mode control,and it is disconnected after the delay time is set. 7. Press the SET button to return. Note:① When the output control mode of do1 is selected as ALM (ALM1 or ALM2), and is not associated (DISABLE)with
any alarm of ALM or associated with all alarms (ENABLE), When any alarm of this group (ALM1 or ALM2)is
33
generated , do1 will act. ② When the output control mode of do1 is selected as ALM (ALM1 or ALM2) and associated (ENABLE) with Phase A
overcurrent alarm and Phase A overpower alarm and not associated (DISABLE) with the other alarms. After the
setting is completed, do1 acts when Phase A overcurrent or Phase A overpower alarm occurs. ③ Before selecting the alarm type associated with do, make sure that the alarm type is enabled in the alarm setting. If it
is not enabled, the do does not act when this alarm condition occurs. DO number

When Phase A current value is 5A, Ao1 output is 20mA; when Phase A current value is 0A, Ao1 output is 4mA; when Phase A current value is 2.5A, Ao1 output is 12mA. If the actual output is 3.99mA at 0A, then the offset can be set to (4-3.99)/16 = 0.062% to make the zero output be 4mA.

8.1 Ethernet Parameter Modification
8.1.1 Modification by Button Refer to 7.5 Network Settings of System Settings 8.1.2 Modification by Modbus Communication
Follow these steps to modify the Ethernet parameters: 1) Send the command 0xABCD to the register with the address 29 to enter the Ethernet setting mode; Send the command 0 to
the register with the address 29 to exit the Ethernet setting mode, and the modified parameters are not saved at this time. 2) The new value can be written to the register after entering the Ethernet setting mode. If the Ethernet mode is not entered, the modification is invalid. 3) Send the command 0XABCD to the the register with the address 37 to save the changes. After it is written successfully, the Ethernet module enters the restart mode. After the Ethernet module restarts successfully, the host can read the Ethernet
40
parameters correctly. 8.1.3 Modification by Web Pages Local network settings Firstly, enter the operating system (take win7 as an example), use the mouse to click on the network icon on the bottom right corner, click on "Open Network and Sharing Center", click on the change adapter settings, right-click the local connection, click

Modbus-TCP/IP
1. General communication architecture
A communicating system over MODBUS TCP/IP may include different types of device: A MODBUS TCP/IP Client and Server devices connected to a TCP/IP network. The Interconnection devices like bridge, router or gateway for interconnection between
the TCP/IP network and a serial line sub-network which permit connections of MODBUS Serial
line Client and Server end devices.
Figure 1: MODBUS TCP/IP communication architecture)
The MODBUS protocol defines a simple Protocol Data Unit (PDU) independent of the
underlying communication layers. The mapping of MODBUS protocol on specific buses or
networks can introduce some additional fields on the Application Data Unit (ADU). The client that initiates a MODBUS transaction builds the MODBUS Application Data Unit. The function code indicates to the server which kind of action to perform.
