How to read energy values from ION meters using modbus register
reads?

Issue:
A user would like to read energy values from an ION meter via Modbus register reads.

Product Line:
ION 7300, 7500, 7600, 7550, 7650, 8300, 8400, 8500, 8600, 8650, series meters

Cause:
There are two register formats that are used to store energy measurements on ION meters. Using a Modbus tester to read 'mod
10' or Int32 type registers will return two types of registers that need to be converted in order to nd the Energy decimal value.

Resolution:
There are two register formats that are used to store energy measurements on ION metersThe two register formats are
Int32-M10k and Int32. The table below shows which meters utilize each of the formats. Review the table and calculation
descriptions shown below.

1) 32-bit integer format

To accommodate values that can reach beyond the 16-bit range, the Modbus Slave module provides 32-bit integer format as an
output option.

Formula:
Value = registerhigh x 65536 + registerlow
or
Value = registerhigh|registerlow
