QI-POWER-485
INSTRUCTION MANUAL
INSTRUCTION MANUAL QI-POWER-485
REMARKS:
• Modbus connections: A+ and B- as per Modbus RTU
standards;
• Modbus Register reference: with reference to the
logical address, for ex. 40010, corresponds to physical
address n°9 as per Modbus RTU standard;
• Modbus functions supported: 3 (Read multiple
registers, max 100), 6 (Write single), 16 (Write multiple).
• Any changes made by dip-switch required to switch
o the power supply or sending reset command.
Using a serial link RS485-USB you can connect the QI-
POWER-485withtheinterface programFACILEQI-POWER-485.
Using this software, allows you to set the Modbus address,
baudrate, delay, the TV and TA ratio, to modify a lter in
order to have fastest responce time instead of a more stable
measurement (lter range from 1-speed to 5-accuracy) and
to measure frequency on current channel instead of voltage
channel . You can download the FACILE QI-POWER-485 free
of charge from our website www.qeed.it (section Products /
Download Software).
A second way to programming the QI-POWER-485 is by
using the Modbus Register Map directly. Download it from
our website: www.qeed.it (section Products / Dowload
Software/ Facile QI-POWER-485 or section Products /
Network Analyzers ).
MOUNTING: The Power Meter QI-POWER-485 can be
mounted in any position (see photo below), horizontal or
vertical mounting, horizontal or vertical through the two

CAUTION: Magnetic elds of high intensity can vary the values
measured by the transformer. Avoid installation near permanent
magnets, electromagnets or iron masses that induce strong changes in
the magnetic eld. If any irregularity recommend reorient or move the
transformer in the area most appropriate.

If you want to set the device by FACILE QI-POWER-485 set the dips in 0. If you
want to set by RS485 directly, set the rst dip to 1 (up) then use the second dip
for baudrate setting ( 0 for 9600 or 1 for 38400). After the settings, please save
the conguration by the COMMAND register, then switch o the power supply,
before to switch on the power supply set the dips in 0.
Dip-switch settings 1 2
All setting from EEPROM 0 0
Set Address 1- Baud 9600 1 0

FACILE QI-POWER-485
The free interface program FACILE QI-POWER-485 is the fastest way
to congure the device . There is only one conguration screen (see
picture shown ) . The changes made to the program act on the register
of the QI-POWER-485 , if you want to restore the default conguration ,
just press the button FACTORY DEFAULT .
TYPE OF MEASURE : Allows the selection of the measure RMS or DC only
to dene the sign, positive or negative, of reading.
SAVE ON ENERGY FLASH: It is possible to activate the saving of the
counters directly on the device’s ash memory .
REPORT OF TRANSFORMATION : In case you would use the TA and / or
TV , you can dene the transformation ratio for the current input and
voltage input , the default ratio is 1:1.
FILTER: Allows you to insert a lter on reading in order to get
more speed in responding (value 1) or a more stable and accurate
measurement ( value 5 ), by default the value is set to 2. You can choose
between intermediate values already set or manually enter the desired
lter by choosing the CUSTOM option from the menu , in this case, you
can set the following parameters : ltering in DC, ltering in AC (default
value 5 ), Frequency measurament on Current channel.
Energy storage data on ash memory : 4,5 years minimum, 45 years typical.
Minimum Current measurement (cut o): 100mA
Minimum Power measurement (cut o) : 1 W
Measurement refresh : every 50 cycles or 1 second (the faster), programmable by
