Label

Use this field to change the default label and assign a

descriptive name to this digital output.

 

 

 

 

This field displays how the digital output functions.

 

 

• External: the digital output is controlled remotely

 

 

either through software or by a PLC using

 

 

commands sent through communications.

Control Mode

External, Demand Sync,

• Demand Sync: the digital output is associated

Alarm

with one of the demand systems. The meter

 

 

sends a pulse to the digital output port at the end

 

 

of every demand interval.

 

 

• Alarm: the digital output is associated with the

 

 

alarm system. The meter sends a pulse to the

 

 

digital output port when the alarm is triggered.

 

 

• Normal: this mode applies when control mode is

 

 

set to External or Alarm. The digital output

 

 

remains in the ON state until an OFF command is

 

 

sent by the computer or PLC.

 

 

• Timed: the digital output remains ON for the

 

 

period defined by the On Time setup register.

Behavior Mode

Normal, Timed, Coil Hold

• Coil Hold: this mode applies when control mode

is set to External or Alarm. For a unary alarm that

 

 

is associated with a digital output, you must set

 

 

Behavior Mode to Coil Hold. The output turns on

 

 

when the “energize” command is received and

 

 

turns off when the “coil hold release” command is

 

 

received. In the event of a control power loss, the

 

 

output remembers and returns to the state it was

 

 

in when control power was lost.

On Time (s)

0 to 9999

This setting defines the pulse width (ON time) in

seconds.
