Foreword
Foreword
Though the operation of the METER is simple, we recommend a thorough reading of this manual before you start any operation, installation, testing or use. The METER is very sturdy and will generally withstand the rough handling it will encounter in the field. However, reasonable care in handling will ensure a long trouble free service. Sufficient care has been taken to provide all information regarding the product. However Secure Meters Ltd. (SML) will not be responsible for any wrong application, misuse, wrong installation or any consequential damage.
Concept
The CEM energy meter is an all-electronic, solid state polyphase energy meter which accurately measures all parameters of the supply voltage, current, power factor, active load, reactive load, apparent load etc., in addition to active, reactive and apparent energies (As the case may be). The CEM energy meter is designed around an Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) based micro-controller with its own programming language. It also has a high degree of programmability to accommodate various types of applications and tariffs. The Secure energy metering system (SEMS) provides a total solution to energy metering. It is not a meter alone, or energy billing computer but an all-encompassing system that covers all these aspects. It offers in one package a complete system for the analysis of power and revenue. From a systems perspective, there are three parts of "SEMS CONCEPT" The Consumer Energy Meter (CEM), an intelligent metering device installed at the consumer's premises / large electrical machines for metering i.e. an Electronic energy meter in place of the age old Ferraris disc meter.
The METER READING INSTRUMENT (MRI), an instrument used by the meter reader, for electronically collecting the meter readings and other performance data from the CEM. The BASE COMPUTER SYSTEM (BCS), computer system software to interpret the readings and other data received from the Meter Reading Instrument and present this vital energy/demand related information in a user-friendly format. This document restricts itself to describing the CEM, which is the Consumer Energy Meter.

Data Communication
The meter has an infra-red coupled isolated serial interface. Physical arrangement is such that it ensures positive alignment of opto devices and it can be sealed independently to prevent any unauthorised communication. The meter communicates with the Meter Reading Instrument (MRI). By this facility user can take reading of metering data, load survey and tamper events. Also, if authorised from BCS, MD can be reset, tariff and billing dates in meter can be changed. For detailed operations of MRI, please refer the MRI manual. The meter has additional communication port in the top hat i.e. RS 485 port (RJ 11 connecter) which communicates over Modbus. The purpose of MODBUS communication protocol is to get meter information, instantaneous parameters, and cumulative energies over serial communication and it is also an open communication protocol.

Technical Features
The Meter ID and its baud rate are set to 1 and 4800 bps respectively by default. They can be displayed on the meter and also can be read through query. If user wants to configure / change the meter MODBUS ID on MODBUS network then it may changed by following command on PACT port. 1. User may change meter ID from 1 to 247 Number. Say wish to keep the meter ID no 2 or 22 or 222 then user need to give iD=2<CR>, iD=22<CR>, iD=222<CR> respectively. Meter will reply &FC for correct query and echo back for not accepting. By default ID is 1. 2. Similarly, User may change MODBUS baud rate BR from 1200 or 2400 or 4800 or 9600 or 19200. Say wish to keep the meter BR at 1200 or 2400 or 4800 or 9600 or 19200 then user need to give bR=2 or 7<CR>, bR=3<CR>, bR=4<CR>, bR=5<CR>, bR=6<CR>, respectively. Here bR=2 and 7 are same for 1200 baud. Meter will reply &FC for correct query and echo back for not accepting. By default BR=4 at @4800. NOTE: The above settings can be done in meter through term mode by MRI or Base Computer Software. Interpretations of MODBUS registers in external units PREMIER doesnt measure smaller quantities of voltage, current and power, which it needs to interpret as the large quantities in the circuit. Commissioning sets up PREMIER so that it interprets the values it measures as the values in the circuit. Following calculations are required to get data in external unit. Different values of MF High (Meter Factor) and their resolutions are as follows Meter Factor MF (High) 2D 2E 2F 30 31 32 33 34 35 Energy Multiplier 1 Wh 0.01 kWh 0.1 kWh 1 kWh 0.01 MWh 0.1 MWh 1 MWh 0.01 GWh 0.01 GWh
NOTE: All values send by PREMIER in MODBUS registers are in hexadecimal. Exponents and Divisors are occupies one nibble i.e. four bits. All the exponents are signed, 2s complement values. All divisors are unsigned values.

Security
An essential requirement of any equipment handling financial transactions is security. Several security methods are incorporated to prevent unauthorised access to the meter. When the meter is security locked, it allows readings to be taken and load surveys to be gathered but no changes can be made which could affect the metering functions. The security system virtually eliminates any fraud or tamper attempts on the meter.

g) Magnetic Influence: The Meter has the capability of detecting and recording of presence of abnormal magnetic influence near the meter, if the magnetic influence affects the meter functionality. h) Voltage unbalance: If there is unbalance in voltage conditions above a particular threshold limit, meter will detect this condition as Voltage unbalance and log this as a tamper event. i) Neutral Disturbance: Meter will detect neutral disturbance if any spurious signal is applied at the meters neutral. All the events log has been divided into different compartments. The tamper information shall be logged on first-in-first-out basis. Each compartment shall in itself be of rollover type. Note: The meter works accurately irrespective of phase sequence of the supply
Calibration LED
It shall be possible to configure the meteorological output (LED) between main energy registers (i.e. active/reactive/apparent). This shall be done with display scroll down/up push button. On power up, the meteorological output shall be for active energy. The push button press changes the meteorological output to the current unit register being displayed. The meteorological output shall then remain for the last current energy register displayed by the push button. The auto display does not affect the meteorological output.
Scroll Locking
CEM has the facility to continuous display of desired parameter, which is available in the Push Button Display Sequence to facilitate meter reading for particular parameter. Following procedure should be adopted to scroll lock a parameter: 1. With the RH button, select the desired parameter from push button mode, which is to be locked continuously for display. 2. Now press the RH button again and without releasing it hold it pressed for another five seconds on the desired parameter to be logged, as the button is pressed on desired parameter the display will go on to the next display, as soon as the long push is over display will jump back to previous parameter giving indication that parameter has been locked. 3. Under lock mode no Auto display sequence will be running, but the manual displays will be enabled. Under lock mode even in the case of power Interruption, display will come to the locked parameter after power up..

4. For releasing the lock press the same button for long push on any parameter till the LCD test (first parameter defined in manual display sequence) comes on display, this will indicate that lock has been released and the normal displays will be running now.
The clock enables the meter to keep track of real time and calendar as features like TOD energy, TOD MD, and event log are done on real time basis. The unavoidable drift in RTC time is automatically taken care of whenever the meter is read by MRI provided the drift falls with in prescribed limits.
This section is provides you detail understanding of display scheme used on LCD of meter. The LCD can be divided in five major sections, which are used for indicating different information about the meter. Following figure shows various sections and their significance. Detail of these is as follows:
Shows value of parameter and other details with seven segment seven digit 7 x 7-Segment Display
Shows display legends & parameter index and other details with five alphanumeric characters 5 x 13-Segment Display
Seven Segment Seven digit Display: This section consists of seven characters of seven-segment display. In general, it is used for value/information of display parameters. Annunciations: This section is made of five twelve segment characters. This section displays the parameter legends analogues to the parameter available on the meter display and parameter index. Direction Indicator: This section indicates direction of flow of energy import or export as well as lagging or leading status as per the associated parameter available on the meter display.

Phase Status Indicator: 1, 2 and 3 represent R, Y and B phase voltage fed to the respective meter terminal. These indicators will show the healthiness of phase voltages. There are three different states of each indicator: ON, OFF and Blinking. Each of this states of a digit is used to represent different condition of corresponding phase which are as follows: ON: Voltage condition of the corresponding phase is healthy or voltage above the define limit. Voltage condition of the corresponding phase is unhealthy or voltage below the define limit. Any abnormal electrical condition persists in the meter. It may be the possibility that voltage angle of the meter is not valid, current is below defining limit or current reversal is persists in the meter. Under this condition, review the meter connection and make the correct connection in the meter. Connection check display is available in the meter display to know actual indicators status with details. Indicators will resume to normal mode if all condition are OK.
