Blue Star C500 Static Single-phase Watt-hour Meter – IEC 61036 (1.0S)
Page 4 1/26/2005 Rev 1.0.01
There are 2 modes after data processing unit powers up:
1. Running Mode: In this mode, B500 meter can perform TOU metering,
demand calculating and load monitoring, and automatically display data
at given time as programmed.
2. Programming mode: A0 will switch to this mode after holding reset
button for 8 seconds. In this mode, LCD will display message “PRG”. It
will only process energy counting, demand calculating and time-section
switch only without handling other functions such as timing display or
load monitoring. A0 will exit from this mode when reset button is
pushed again, or exit automatically if no button was pushed for 4
minutes.
When data processing unit is running, LED will flash once an effective
energy pulse is registered, no matter which mode it is in.
2.1.2 Data display
There are 2 types of data display modes:
1) Timing display: user can choose from 4 types of time intervals. The
display is automatic and can be used for routine monitoring.
2) Inquiry display: User may continuously push button until the needed
data is displayed. This can be used to check records in the meter.
Detailed descriptions of three types of data display modes are as following:
1) Timing display: This mode is effective once programmed. If the
display interval is set to 15 minutes, B500 will display data at minute
of 0, 5, 15, 30 or 45 hourly. It stops automatically after all specified
data have been displayed. Display time for each piece of data can be
set independently from 1 to 99 seconds. If it needs more time to
display all the data within one interval, meter will skip one display and
will display the data at the next display time.
2) Inquiry display: B500 will switch to this mode once display button is
pushed. In this mode, display time of each data item extends sixty
times longer. For example, if original display time is set as 8 seconds
for each data, display time for the same data extends to 8 minutes
now. Next data will be displayed once display button is pushed again.
If display button is not pushed throughout the period when a data is
displayed, meter will automatically switch to Timing Display Mode
after data display finishes and will continue display of next data.
