7.

Assign the PC a static IP address such that the first three segments are

 

the same as the default IP address, and the last segment is different

 

from the default IP address. For example, 169.254.0.xxx, where xxx

 

differs from the last segment of the default IP address.

8.

Configure the meter. See “Configuring the Meters” on page 7 for

 

configuration instructions.

9.

Remove power. Use a properly rated voltage sensing device to confirm

 

power is off.

10.

If you wish to lock the configuration parameters, remove the inner cover

 

and move the programming switches (SW1) to the OFF (up) position.

11.

Re-install the inner cover.

12.

Connect the LAN Etherent cable if present.

13.

Re-install the outer cover.

14.

Restore power.

 

NOTE: All PowerLogic EM4800 Series meters have a default IP

 

address of 169.254.0.10 in the absence of a DHCP service.

DANGER

HAZARD OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, EXPLOSION, OR ARC FLASH

Apply appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) and follow safe electrical work practices. See NFPA 70E.

This equipment must only be installed and serviced by qualified electrical personnel.

Turn off all power supplying this equipment before working on or inside equipment.

Always use a properly rated voltage sensing device to confirm power is off.

Replace all devices, doors and covers before turning on power to this equipment.

The meters must be connected to the sense voltage and control voltage through a properly rated disconnect.

Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.

To connect the PowerLogic EM4800 Series meter to the network:

1.Turn off power to the meter with the installed breaker or disconnecting device. Use a properly rated voltage sensing device to confirm power is off.

2.Remove the outer cover.

3.If you are changing parameters that require the programming switch to be on, remove the inner cover and ensure the programming switches are in the ON position.

4.Re-install the inner cover.

5.Using a CAT 5 Ethernet patch cable, connect the meter to a local Ethernet switch.

6.Re-install the outer cover.
