1. Introduction
The devices of the A200 series of multi-functional power meters may be equipped with an optional extension module. Within this
document the communication with the module EMMOD201 is shown. It provides a switch able RS232 / RS485 interface,
memory for a logger and a digital input.
Basically three different operating modes may be realized:
- Standalone: The module is used for configuring the device only. There is no permanent connection to a master (PC) or it is
not fixed all the time.
- Bus service: Up to 32 devices may be interconnected via RS485 interface. Measured data are requested permanently via a
MODBUS master.
- Full device control via bus: Beside the interrogation of measurands the synchronization of the mean power values, tariff
switching and digital output driving (on-site alarming) may be performed via bus interface. The MODBUS master is fully
responsible for a permanent control of the devices and acquires measurands periodically.
The following functions can be performed using the extension module:
- Interrogation of device features
- Modification of device features
- Acquisition of present measurands
- Acquisition of integrated mean-power values
- Interrogation / setting / resetting of meter contents
- Resetting minimum / maximum values
- Acquisition of mean-power values stored in the logger
- Synchronization, tariff switching or direct output driving of digital outputs via bus interface
This document describes all these functions. For communication protocols according to the MODBUS specification are used.
However, normally you will work with an existing hardware and / or software platform. Therefore we will give a help to various
users which chapters of this document are of help for him.

2. Connecting devices
RS485: MODBUS interface
The switch on the extension module has to be in position RS485.One should use twisted signal wires cables and pay attention
to the polarity. GND can be connected with a wire or the cable screen. Screened cables must be used in an environment with
interference.
If long wires (> 10m) are used, termination resistors of each 120 Ohm are necessary on both bus ends. Additionally supply
resistors of 500...1000 Ohm to signal GND and +5V are required. Normally these supply resistors are part of the bus master
interface.
Attention: Simple interface converters have no built-in supply resistors. Devices with supply resistors are e.g. W&T 13601 (PC
card) or W&T 86201 (converter) of Wiesemann & Theis GmbH.
Beware of long stubs, a simple line network is ideal. Up to 32 devices (including the master) may be interconnected.

All devices must use the same bus settings (baudrate, parity control) but a unique device address. These settings may
be performed locally at the device or via RS232 interface.
1) One ground connection only. This is possibly already made at the master (PC).
Rt Termination resistors 120 Ohm
Rs Bus supply resistors 500...1000 Ohm
Rb Contact input supply resistors 4.5kOhm
Vz 6.2V zener diode for protection
RS232: Programming interface
The switch on the extension module has to be in position RS232. Using a PC, the software A200plus and an interface adapter
cable RS232 (order no. 152 603) the configuration settings can be clearly and easily made. All the bus functions are available.
However, interconnetion of more than one device is impossible.

The unit factor is an unsigned 16-bit integer number. It is used to scale the meter contents to the appropriate physical unit and to
define the number of post decimal positions. It contains as well the conversion for possibly connected primary transformers.
Physical meter content = Meter content * 10 x[Wh or varh]
Example: Pincoming = 12056; E = 4
Meter content: 12056 x 104 [Wh] =12056 x 106 x 10-2 [Wh] = 120.56 [MWh]

4.5 Mean values progression (Logger)
The logger provides the following information:
- Status information:
●Number of logged measurands. A data set contains a value for each selected measurand.
●Up to 10 power fail information: Register address of the interrupted measuring interval. In cases of power failure, the
possibility to synchronize logged data to the PC clock when reading them, will be lost.

The reading of larger amounts of data must be divided. Only complete data sets may be read. Up to 120 registers can be read
with a single telegram. Data is stored in time ascending order (oldest value in register 1000). The storage sequence within the
data sets is always the same:
A210/A220 A230 A230 A230
1. P (Inc.-outg.) P incoming 6. Conf. mean value 1 11. Conf. mean value 6
2. Q (ind.+capac.) Q inductive / Q incoming 7. Conf. mean value 2 12. Conf. mean value 7
3. - P outgoing 8. Conf. mean value 3 13. Conf. mean value 8
4. - Q capacitive / Q outgoing 9. Conf. mean value 4 14. Conf. mean value 9
5. - S 10. Conf. mean value 5
Measurands 3..12 are possible for A230 only. Unused measurands are removed from the sequence. Registers which hasn't
been written yet, can't be read (error message 03H). The maximum number of storable mean values is 16'000. It is reduced, if
16'000 isn't a multiple of the number of measurands within a data set.
If buffer is full in endless mode: On each reading of logger data a timeout of 10s will be started. During this time the
assignment of the measurands and the register addresses will not be modified. New values will be stored separately and filled
in if the timeout expires. This way it can be assured, that a complete reading of the logger can be performed, before a register
offset may take place.
Deleting logger data
Register Meaning Values
970 Reset Bit 0 set: All logged data will be deleted
Bit 1 set: Interval timer will be restarted (for internal synchronization only)

4.6 Measurands overflow
Measurands U,I,P,Q,S
The device is designed for a specific rated voltage resp. rated current. If the allowed ranges are exceeded more than 20% the
device will display "oL" (Overload). A request for appropriate measurands will then be answered with a special data value
(9.99*10E30). This will happen for voltage and current measurands as well as for derived power values. There is no specific
handling for under- or overflow. Always the same positive overflow value is used.
The same procedure is used for the corresponding minimum, maximum and mean values of these measurands.
Measurand F
For frequency measurement the allowed range is 45.00...65.00Hz. If frequency is not measurable, i.e. if input values are too
small or if frequency is not within the allowed range, the appropriate measurand will be barely below 45Hz or barely above 65Hz.
On the display a flashing "44.99" resp. "65.01" will be shown.
The same procedure is used for the corresponding minimum, maximum or mean values of the frequency.
Measurand PF
The power factor PF is normally within the range -1.00 .. 1.00. If the factor is not measurable, i.e. if input values are too small,
the device display will show "---". In this case the measurand read will be above or below the possible range.
For the minimum values of the power factor the display "---" is shown, if there was no measurand within the supervised quadrant
up to now. A measurand request will be answered with the value "1.2".
Measurands THD, harmonic contents, unbalance factor
These percent values are normally within the range 0..100%. If there is an overflow the values will remain on the maximum
values of 100%. The same procedure is used for the corresponding minimum, maximum and mean values.

5. Status interrogation / remote control
The bus interface allows to request information about presettings or device states. Another possibility is to control functions like
tariff switching, digital output driving or synchronization via bus.
All these functions are provided by reading or setting register 400. When using the remote control facility more than one task
may be transmitted with one command. Subsequent commands don't have to consider the previous state of register 400.

The state of the digital outputs may be set via bus interface. This way e.g. the following functions may be performed:
- Test ob subsequent equipment during installation
- On-site alarming via digital outputs, independent of the device function
To perform these tasks it must be assured, that digital outputs are configured for bus control. Therefore it may be necessary to
temporary deactivate the configured function of the digital outputs, by setting the most significant bit of the parameter
Diga_Konfig[0] resp. Diga_Konfig[1] (see chapter 7).
Output 1 E1: Set state of digital output 1 (0=no, 1=yes)
O1: Desired state of digital output 1 (0=OFF, 1=ON)

The synchronization for the calculation of the mean-power values may be performed via bus interface as well. To do so, the
digital input may not be configured for synchronization. Additionally bits 0..5 of the configuration byte EnergyControl must be
set to 0 to deactivate internal synchronization.
To transmit a synchronization pulse you have to set bit 'SY' of register 400. For logical reasons this command should be sent as
a broadcast message (to all devices). To make this a useful application the presence of a master is required all the time.

6. Resetting measurands
The power monitoring device contains information considering the progression of measurands in time. Especially these are
minimum / maximum values and meters. All these values may be reset independently or all at the same time.
6.1 Resetting minimum and maximum values
The existing values may be influenced in groups. To reset one of these groups the appropriate bit in the register must be set.
You may use broadcast messages (address 0) to reset all devices connected to the bus and all selected measurand groups at
the same time.

All meter contents are unsigned 32-bit integer numbers (2 registers for each value). These values refer to the significant
numbers, which will be displayed on the display unit itself.
The unit factor is an unsigned 16-bit integer number. It is used to scale the meter contents to the appropriate physical unit and to
define the number of post decimal positions (see chapter 4.3). This factor is valid for all meter contents of a device and can't be
modified.
