Energy pulsing

You can configure the meter’s energy pulsing LEDs or onboard digital outputs for energy pulsing applications.

When an LED or output is set to energy pulsing, the meter sends a readable pulse or signal based on the measured energy source value. This pulse can be used for accuracy verification or as an input to another energy monitoring system.

Default energy pulsing LED sources

Your meter’s energy pulsing LEDs have default energy source values configured for accuracy verification testing.

Calibration Pulser LED	LED Location	Default energy pulsing source
MU Wh Pulser LED (visible and infrared)	Top of meter body	MU kW tot

Note: The energy pulsing LEDs are configured in pairs. For example, changing the energy source value will change it for both the regular and infrared LEDs.

Note: To modify your default energy source value, go into the advanced mode of ION Setup and modify the associated Calibration Pulser module. This is an advanced procedure that should only be performed if you have advanced knowledge of ION and the power system your meter is connected to.

For more information, see Calibration Pulser Module in ION Reference Help.
