Selecting RTU Adapter configures the

 

 

 

communications module as a Modbus

 

 

 

RS422/RS485 serial interface.

 

 

 

 

 

 

RTU comms config

Enter the RTU serial port parameters as a string

 

 

 

with the following selections: baud rate (19200 or

 

 

 

9600), number of bits (8), number of start bits (1),

 

 

 

number of stop bits (1), parity type (e – even, n –

 

 

 

none

 

 

 

Example: 19200,8,1,e (default)

 

 

 

 

 

 

Modbus base address

Enter the Modbus RTU address for this device (1

 

 

 

to 255)

 

 

 

 

Utility Password

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Current Password

The default meter Utility Password is listed here

 

 

 

whenever the Configuration Tool is started or

 

 

 

when a configuration is uploaded from a meter.

 

 

 

If the Utility Password for the meter is not the

 

 

 

default password, enter the Current Password

 

 

 

here to change metering specific parameters or to

 

 

 

change the password again.

 

 

 

 

Enter new password

To change the password, enter the new password.

 

 

 

 

Enter new password again

To confirm, re-enter the new password.

 

 

 

 

NOTE: The Modbus and RTU Adapter Comms Option parameters are valid only when a Modem module or an RTU adapter module is present.

The RTU Adapter parameters apply only to Modbus RTU communications. There are no configuration options when Modbus over TCP/IP is used.

NOTE: : The meter Utility Password is used to control access to changing the metering specific parameters in the PowerLogic meter. The following parameters and functions cannot be changed or activated unless the correct Utility Password is entered before sending the new config to the meter:

PT Ratio

CT Current and Phase

Reset Dial Readings Model Number Change Password

All other parameters and functions can be changed or accessed without entering the correct Utility Password for the meter being configured.

Manufacturing Tab

The Manufacturing tab allows the user to define the metering configuration for the

PowerLogic meters. The meters support the configurations listed in Table 9.
