Once you have connected the status inputs to the field equipment that they
monitor, check the 9700 Power Meter’s Digital Input modules to ensure they
are configured appropriately. The eight Digital Input modules are factory
configured as follows:
Setup Register F a ctory Setting
Input Mode Pulse (complete pulse as opposed to KYZ transition pulse)
Event Log Mode Log Off (status changes are not logged)
Polarity Inverting (hardware signal is inverted)
Debounce 0.010 (mechanical contact bounce, in seconds)
Port STATUS1 to STATUS8 (specifies which hardware port the module
controls)
Auxiliary Analog Inputs
The 9700 Power Meter can be ordered with an optional analog input board
that provides four double-ended voltage or current inputs for direct interface
with transducers. The configuration and maximum input range depends on
the option ordered. The options are as follows:
Option Input Impedance Max Common Mode Voltage
0 – 1 mA 49.9 • 8 V
0 – 20 mA 100 • 20 V
0 – 1 V >=50 k• 12 V
0 – 10 V >= 50 k• 25 V
Note that each of the four analog inputs can be configured to monitor AC or
DC signals; however, all four inputs must be configured with the same input
rating. In other words, if you ordered the AUX 20mA option, all four inputs
must be configured as 0-20mA but some can be AC and some can be DC.
Analog Input modules control the function of each analog input. As the
analog input board is optional, no Analog Input modules are included in the
9700 Power Meter’s factory configuration.
Analog Input modules are configured by selecting the port they monitor,
and setting the scaling values used to normalize the incoming signal. Once
configured, you can link the output of the Analog Input module to any other
module that accepts numeric data.
