5. Display and Key-press Operation
5.1 Display Instruction
In energy data displaying interface, the LCD displays KWH value in 6 +1 digits (999999.9 KWh).
In parameter setting interface, the menu setting options are in order of : CT ratio programming, communication
address programming, baud rate programming, clear energy.
5.2 LED Lights Instruction
On the panel of the meter, there are 3 LED lights in order of (COM), (PULSE), (REV).
(COM) is communication indicating light. When the communication is normal, the light flashes once every two
seconds. When communication error, the light flashes twice a second. In case communication blackout, the light is
off.

(PULSE) is active pulse output indicating light. It flashes once as soon as there is a pulse output.
(REV) is opposite energy indicating light. This light is on when the active power is reversed.
5.3 Key-press Instruction
Move left or quit setting.
Increase value or select menu.
Enter setting or enter menu.
5.4 Parameter Setting
◆CT Ratio Programming
Note: When rated current >5A, default CT ratio is 1.
（1）In data displaying interface, press for 3 seconds and release to enter setting interface. The default first
setting menu is CT ratio programming. Default display is: 1- 1
The number 1- means CT ratio setting option. The back number 1 means the CT ratio is 1.
The programming range of CT ratio is 1~999.
（2）If the external CT parameter is 800/5, users should program the CT ratio to 160.
Press quickly and release to enter programming. The screen shows: 1- 1 .1
The last two digits .1 means the current cursor position is on units digit.
（3）Press several times, change the units digit to 0. The screen shows: 1- 0 .1
（4）Then press once again, the screen shows:1- 0 .2
The last digit .2 means current cursor position is on tens digit.
（5）Press several times, change the tens digit to 6. The screen shows: 1- 60 .2
（6）Then press once again, the screen shows:1- 60 .3
The last digit .3 means current cursor position is on hundreds digit.
（7）Press , change the hundreds digit to 1. The screen shows: 1- 1 60 .3
（8）Then press to confirm the setting. The last two digits .3 disappear. Quit CT ratio programming. At this
moment, CT ratio menu shows: 1- 1 60
(9) Press to quit setting interface.
◆Communication Address Programming
（1）In data displaying interface, press for 3 seconds and release to enter setting interface. The initial menu is
CT ratio programming. Press once and release, enter communication address programming. The default
display: 2- 1
3

The number 2- means communication address setting option. The back number 1 means the communication
address is 1.
The programming range of communication address is 1~247.
（2）If users want to change the communication address to 12, press to enter programming. The screen
shows:
2- 1 .1
The last two digits .1 means current cursor position is on units digit.
（3）Press to change the units digit to 2. The screen shows: 2- 2 .1
（4）Press , the screen shows: 2- 2 .2
The last two digits .2 means current cursor position is on tens digit.
（5）Press to change the tens digit to 1. The screen shows: 1- 12 .2

enter baud rate menu. The screen shows: 3- 9 6
The number 3- means baud rate setting option. The back number 96 means the baud rate is 9600bps.
The baud rate can be set to 4800bps or 9600bps.
（2）If users want to change the baud rate to 4800bps, press to enter programming. The screen shows: 3-
96 .
The last lighted decimal point . means it is in programming interface.
（3）Press once, change the baud rate to 4800bps. The screen shows: 3- 48 .
（4）Press to confirm setting, the decimal point disappear. The screen shows: 3- 48
（5）Press to quit programming.
Clear Energy◆
(1) In data displaying interface, press for 3 seconds and release to enter setting interface. Press three times
to enter clear energy menu. The screen shows: 4-C n
The number 4- means clear energy setting option, the letter Cmeans CLEAR, and the last letter nis used for
setting.
(2) Press quickly and release, enter programming. The last decimal point lights on. The screen shows: 4-C
n .
(3) Press and release, the last letter nchange to y. It warns users to clear energy. The screen shows: 4-C y .
4

(4) Press and release, confirm to clear energy. The screen again shows: 4-C n
(5) Press to quit programming, and turn back to data displaying interface. The kWh value has been cleared to
zero.
6. Connection Modes and Drawing
There are two connection modes: direct connection and indirect connection through CT.
When rated current ＞100A, the meter should be connected via external CT.
When rated current ≤100A, the meter should be connected directly.
