MeterM@il Technology in a Modbus Network

The following example illustrates just one of the many uses for the Log Export module. This Modbus network includes the ION 7500 as the Modbus Master and the ION 6200 and ION 7300 meters as Modbus slave devices. Configuration is performed on the framework where the Modbus Master is located for systems that utilize MeterM@il technology.

Notice that the Modbus Import module supplies values to the Data Recorder module’s Source inputs. The Modbus Import module’s Slave Addr (slave address) is set to 113, indicating that the values come from the ION 7300. The Periodic Timer module’s Period register is set to 900, so the Data Recorder module is pulsed every fifteen minutes (900 seconds). When it is pulsed the Data Recorder module records the values in its Source 1-3inputs. Once the values are successfully recorded, the Data Recorder module's Record Complete output pulses the Log Export module’s Send input. The Log Export module then sends all its Source data records that have not previously been sent to the email specified in the Destination setup register (john@host.com).
