RS 485 ( ModBus ) Output

3430 supports MODBUS (RS485) RTU protocol ( 2-wire). Connection should be made using twisted

pair shielded cable .All" A "and" B "connections are daisy chained together .The screens should also

be connected to the“ Gnd ”terminal .To avoid the possibility of loop currents , an Earth connection

should be made at one point on the network.Loop (ring) topology does not require any termination

load .Line topology may or may not require terminating loads depending on the type and length of

cable used .The impedance of the termination load should match the impedance of the cable and be

at both ends of the line .The cable should be terminated at each end with a 120 ohm (1/4 Watt min.)

resistor . RS 485 network supports maximum length of 1.2km .Including the Master ,a maximum of

32 instruments can be connected in RS485 network.

Pulse output option

The pulse output gives pulses at the rate proportional to the measured energy. There are two

options available, 1 (One Pulse Output : Relay 1 can be configured either to Active ) Import / Export (

energy or Reactive ( Import / Export ) energy or Apparent energy .2 (Two Pulse Output : Here it is

possible to assign Relay 1 and Relay 2 to Active ( Import / Export ) energy or Reactive ( Import /

Export ) energy or Apparent energy. The pulse divisor and pulse width(duration) can be

configured .When two pulse outputs are fitted ,they share a common divisor value and pulse width.

NOTE: If system power is selected in W then default pulse rate is 1 pulse per Wh (upto 3600W) . If

the system power is scaled in kW then default pulse rate is 1 pulse per kWh (upto 3600 kW) .If the

system power is over 3600 kWh then pulse rate is 1 pulse per MWh.
