2.3. FEATURES 2.3.1. ENERGY ACCUMULATORS

8 energy accumulators record the following energies1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. Forward Active Energy Forward Lagging (Inductive) Reactive Energy Forward Leading (Capacitive) Reactive Energy Forward Apparent Energy Reverse Active Energy Reverse Lagging (Inductive) Reactive Energy Reverse Leading (Capacitive) Reactive Energy Reverse Apparent Energy

Cumulative energies All eight energy types get accumulated from the time of Installation. These accumulators cannot be reset by performing any type of reset. Reset energies (cumulative) The cumulative energies of all eight energies at the time of reset are stored, for 4 backups.

2.3.2.

MAXIMUM DEMAND (MD) REGISTERS

A max. of three MD registers out of the eight energy types can be selected and programmed for separate integration periods. Each MD can be configured separately for Block/Sliding window method.
Integration periods of 10,15,30,60 minutes & Subintegration

periods of 1, 2, 3,5,10,15,30,60 minutes are programmable. Reset MD Registers These are the MDs, for the present billing period i.e. from the time of latest reset. If a reset is performed, these values are pushed to backups and these registers get cleared. Cumulative MD Registers Whenever a reset is performed the reset MDs are added to the existing cumulative MD registers. Cumulative MD feature helps to discourage unauthorised MD reset.

2.3.2.1. Methods of MD calculation Normal or Block method: At the end of each fixed intg. period average power for that period is calculated. If this value is greater than the already existing value then this is stored as the MD. Sliding window Method: At the end of a sub intg. period the average power is calculated for one intg. period. If this value is greater than the already existing value then this is stored as the MD. The intg. Period slides by a window of the sub intg. period. e.g. MD no. Method MD1 Sliding MD2 Block Intg. period 30 min. 30 min. Sub Intg. period 15 min. 30 min.

Assume a load pattern of the following type

20kVA 15 mins. 09:00 30kVA 15 mins. 09:15 30kVA 15 mins. 09:30 20kVA 15 mins. 09.45

10:00

For MD1 (Sliding window method)Demand - 09:00 to 09:30 block = (20*15+30*15)/30 = 25kVA Demand - 09:15 to 09:45 block = (30*15+30*15)/30 = 30kVA Demand - 09:30 to 10:00 block = (30*15+20*15)/30 = 25kVA MD1 at the end of 10:00 = 30 kVA For MD2 (Block method)Demand - 09:00 to 09:30 block= (20*15+30*15)/30= 25kVA Demand - 09:30 to 10:00 block= (30*15+20*15)/30= 25kVA MD2 at the end of 10:00 = 25 kVA

INSTANTANEOUS PARAMETERS

Voltages and Currents - The instantaneous values of currents and voltages are available phasewise. Three segments on LCD indicate the presence/absence of phase voltages and currents. If voltage is absent in a phase, the corresponding phase segment is OFF. If only voltage is present in that phase then it is ON. If both voltage and current are present in that phase then it blinks at a fixed rate. Frequency - The meter calculates value of the system frequency.

the instantaneous

Power Factor (PF) - The meter calculates instantaneous PF of the system, phasewise & all phases.

the

Instantaneous Powers - The meter calculates instantaneous true active, reactive & apparent powers irrespective of the configuration of the meter. Phase Sequence - The meter detects the phase sequence of both voltage and current circuits. Rising Demand (RD) Rising demand indicates the average power being consumed upto an instant in the integration period, averaged over the entire integration period. Or RD = Energy consumed in the integration period till the particular instant the complete integration period. The same settings of MDs i.e. no., type, method and integration period, is applicable to rising demand registers.

2.3.5. PROGRAMMABLE FEATURES Meter can be programmed via front panel or RS485 port (password protected)- See appendix D for address list (memory map) for programming using MODBUS protocol. Front panel Enter programming mode by pressing the recessed button on the front panel. Then using the other 4 keys on the front panel, the meter can be programmed. Refer appendix E. Front panel programming is password protected. RS485 port Using MODBUS protocol.

2.3.5.1. UNI/BI-DIRECTIONAL CONFIGURATION The meter can be programmed as a uni-directional or a bidirectional meter. Uni-directional configuration The meter records forward energies in forward registers. The reverse energies are added to the forward registers and are also recorded separately in reverse registers. i.e. Forward register = Forward energy + Reverse energy Reverse register = Reverse energy Bi-directional configuration The meter records forward energies in forward registers and reverse energies in reverse registers separately. i.e. Forward register = Forward energy Reverse register = Reverse energy NOTE: The convention followed for forward / reverse isForward direction - when current flows from M to L of the current terminals. Reverse direction - when current flows from L to M of the current terminals.

14

2.3.5.2. VAh (MD & average PF) CALCULATION METHODS The meter can be configured for Leading PF to be treated as UPF Whenever the PF is leading, apparent energy is same as active energy, lead reactive energy is ignored. Leading PF to be treated as Lead Even if the PF is leading, lead reactive energy is considered along with active energy for apparent energy calculation.

APPENDIX D MODBUS DETAILS & MEMORY MAP MODBUS DETAILS 1. DETAILS OF COMMUNICATION INTERFACE RS485 interface is available to communicate with the meter. The interface is available at the terminals as well as on a 9 pin D connector. 1.1) Interface Standard: The configuration details to communicate with the meter are given belowStandard RS485 (half duplex) Baud rate Selectable- 9600,4800, 2400,1200,600 or 300 bps Parity Selectable- None, odd or even Start bit 1 Stop bit 1 1.2) Protocol: The RS485 interface uses MODBUS Protocol in RTU mode. Communicating with the meter involves sending commands to the meter for reading and writing the particular register. The meter can be addressed with specific user defined meter address (slave ID) from 1-255. 2. DETAILS OF MODBUS PROTOCOL In the explanation of protocol the examples used are specific to L&T meters. The details of the protocol are also limited to L&T meters.

29

2.1) Remote Terminal unit Framing: In RTU mode data is sent as 8-bit binary characters. In RTU mode, message characters must be transmitted in a continuous mode. The receiving device monitors the elapsed time between receipt of characters i.e. inter byte delay. If inter byte delay is three and one half the character time (for e.g. at 9600bps, the max. inter byte delay expected will be 1ms*3.5), the receiving device can timeout. If the time between characters of the frame (command) received by the meter is greater than 40ms., the meter times out and flushes the frame and assumes that the next byte received will be an address. The max. response time of the meter to a command, i.e. the time taken to send the first byte out in response to the command is max. 240ms. ADDRESS 8 BITS FUNCTION 8 BITS DATA N * 8 BITS CHECK 16 BITS

2.2) Address field: The meter can be addressed with specific user defined address from 1-255. Each slave must be assigned a unique address and only the addressed slave responds to query that contains its address. When the slave sends a response the slave address informs the master which slave is communicating. In broadcast message, an address of 0(zero) is used. All slaves interpret this as an instruction to read and take action on the message, but do not issue a response message. 2.3) Function field: The function code field tells the addressed slave what function is to be performed. The higher order bit in this field is set by the slave device to indicate that other than a normal response is being transmitted to the master device (See SECTION 3 for exception response). The following functions have been implemented in the meter.

30

CODE 03

MEANING Read holding registers

06 16

Preset single register Preset multiple registers

ACTION Obtains current binary value in one or more holding registers. Place a specific binary value into a holding register. Places specific binary values into a series of consecutive holding registers.

2.4) Data Field: The data field contains the information needed by the slave to perform the specific function or it contains data collected by the slave in response to a query. 2.5) Error Check Field: This allows the master and slave device to check a message for error transmission. The error check field uses a CRC-16 check in the RTU mode. 3. EXCEPTION RESPONSES Exception response is a notification of an error. The exception response codes are listed in the table 3-1.When a slave detects one of these errors, it sends a response to the master consisting of slave address, function code, error code and error check field. To indicate that the response is a notification of an error, the high order bit of the function code is set to 1.

31

Table 3-1 CODE 01 NAME ILLEGAL FUNCTION MEANING The message function received is not an allowable action for slave. The address referenced in the data field is not an allowable address for the addressed slave location. The value referenced in the data field is not allowable in the addressed slave location.

Example: Query Message

SLAVE ADDR 0A FUNC H.O START ADDR 00 L.O. START ADDR 24 H.O NO. OF REG 00 L.O NO. OF REG 02 ERROR CHECK FIELD FC ERROR CHECK FIELD BB

01

The query requests the status of input 0036 in slave no.10. Since the function is an invalid function for the L&T meters so the following error response will be generated. Response Message
SLAVE ADDR 0A FUNC 81 EXCEPTIO N CODE 01 ERROR CHECK F0 ERROR CHECK 52

The function code field is the original function code with the high order bit set and exception code 01 indicates an illegal function field.

32

4. EXPLANATION OF VARIOUS FUNCTION The purpose of this section is to define the general format for the specific command available to programmers. The form of each query message (in RTU transmission mode) and an explanation of the function the query message performs are provided. All numbers in Modbus format are entered in hexadecimal. 4.1) Read Output Register (Function Code 03) Query Read output Register(03) allows the user to obtain the binary contents of holding register in the addressed slave. The addressing allows up to Max.90 registers to be obtained at each request. Broadcast mode is not allowed. The below example reads registers of R phase voltage from slave number 17(decimal). Since R phase voltage is stored in the address 0000 and 0001 so to read R phase voltage both addresses should be read simultaneously. Example: Query Message
SLAVE ADDR 11 FUNC H.O START ADDR 00 L.O. START ADDR 00 H.O NO. OF REG 00 L.O NO. OF REG 02 ERROR CHECK FIELD C6 ERROR CHECK FIELD 9B

NOTE: If a particular parameter is stored in more than one address location. Then for reading that particular parameter all the address locations should be read simultaneously. Otherwise meter will not respond or the response will not be the correct value. For further details see memory map of parameters.

33

Response: The addressed slave will respond with its address and the function code, followed by the information field. The information field contains 1 byte describing the quantity of data bytes to be returned. The contents of register requested (DATA) are two bytes each. The first byte includes the higher order bits and the second byte includes lower order bits. Response Message

In this particular example the data obtained for R phase voltage is 0x00005DE6 which if converted into integer will be 24038.So to get the voltage of R-phase this particular value should be multiplied with the specified multiplication factor(MF) which is 0.01 in this case. (For further details see the memory map of the parameters). So 24038 x 0.01=240.38 which is R-phase voltage. 4.2) Preset Single Register(Function Code 06) CAUTION: Function (06) will overwrite controller memory. Function (06) allows the user to modify the contents of a holding register. The contents of only those holding registers can be modified which are writeable only. The values are provided in binary, up to the maximum capacity of the controller (16-Bits in L&T meters)and unused higher bits must be set to zero. When used with slave address zero(Broadcast mode), all slave controllers will load the specified registers with the content specified.

34

Example: This example will set the CT primary value in slave number 17.The address of CT primary is 2048 and value to be programmed is 1000. Query Message

If the value is an illegal value then the response message will be an exception response(Error message). For the details of max. and min. values of any parameter refer to manual. NOTE: For programming RTC the values the data for setting the RTC should be BCD(Binary Coded Decimal). Example: For setting date 29 and day 5 at location 257 the query message will be as follows Query Message
SLAVE ADDR 11 FUNC H.O START ADDR 01 L.O. START ADDR 01 DATA VALUE H.O 29 DATA VALUE L.O 05 ERROR CHECK FIELD 04 ERROR CHECK FIELD F5

4.3) Preset Multiple Registers(Function Code 16) CAUTION: Function(16) will overwrite controller memory.
35

Function(16) allows the user to modify the contents of holding registers. The contents of only those holding registers can be modified which are writeable only. The values are provided in binary up to the maximum capacity of the controller (16-Bits in L&T meters), unused higher bits must be set to zero. Maximum of 10 registers can be programmed by this function. When used with slave address zero(Broadcast mode) all slave controllers will load the specified registers with the contents specified. Example: This example will set the CT primary and CT secondary value in slave number 17.The address of CT primary is 2048,CT secondary is 2049 and value to be programmed for CT primary and secondary are 1000 and 100 respectively.

Note:
Unit for energies & MDs (not instantaneous parameters) are dependent on CT PT ratios. If [(CT primary/CT secondary) * (PT primary/PT secondary)] > 1000 then unit is M (Mega) else it is k (kilo).

Every time any settings of the meter are modified, the data logging or scanning software must 1. give a hint that settings have been changed and hence whether data base has to be backed up 2. collect new settings from meter 3. use Com. Count, that increments every time meter is programmed via front panel, to see if meter has been programmed from front panel.
