General
The Interface Module XC Modbus is designed for use with the EMH LZQJ-XC and DMTZ-XC meters. The module is equipped with a RS485 (2 wires) interface. The module can be plugged easily into the module compartment of the meter. It can be mounted or exchanged during operation (without breaking approval seal). An integrated Modbus interface provides a simple means of connecting multi-energy meters. This makes multi-energy applications an affordable proposition for domestic use. Due to the communication, the modules are suitable for a lot of control centres.
Compatible meters
LZQJ-XC (special meter for industrial applications):
- Standard meter for direct connection
- Transformer connection version Cl. B (Cl. 1)
- Precision meter Cl. C (Cl. 0.5S)
- Precision meter Cl. 0,2S
DMTZ-XC (industry meter)
Functions
RS-485 (2 wires) interface for bi-directional
communications
Protocol converter for meter data (max. 125 values)
into Modbus-Format (non transparent data readout)
Transmission protocol: Modbus RTU (8N1)  Internal communication interface for the transfer
service data (TS) between the meter and the interface module
Internal power supply from meter  Exchangeable during the meter operation
The owner of the interface modules is responsible that all persons engaged on work with the modules:
• Are competent and qualified in accordance with national regulations (see ISSA "Guideline for Assessing the Competence of Electrically Skilled Persons").
• Have read and understood the relevant sections of the user manual.
• Strictly observe the safety regulations (according to the following section) and
the instructions in the individual chapters.
Safety Notes
The owner of the modules is also responsible for:
• The protection of persons.
• The prevention of material damage.
• The training of personnel.
The following safety regulations must be observed at all times:
• Devices which have fallen down should not be installed, even if no damage is apparent, and should be returned for testing to an authorised service centre (internal damage possible).
• Modules must never be cleaned with running water or high pressure devices. Water can cause
short-circuits or damage el. components.

Strictly observe the safety regulations!
Installation of the interface module:
1. Check the interface module.
2. Remove the terminal cover [5].
3. Open the transparent module cover [1].
4. Insert the interface module [3] carefully at the place provided in the meter [2].
5. Push the module in to the internal contacts.
6. Connect the cable.
7. Close the transparent module cover [1].
8. Close the terminal cover [5].
Removing of the interface module:
9. Remove the terminal cover [5].
10. Open the transparent module cover [1].
11. Disconnect the cable.
12. Remove the interface module.
13. Close the transparent module cover [1].
14. Close the terminal cover [5].

Installation Hints
The installation must be done in a way, that even in the case of cable break no dangerous voltages are applied to touchable parts of the module. Generally, meters are delivered with the communication modules installed. The fitting of a meter with a communication module is, therefore, an exception and can be necessary e.g. when a module needs to be replaced.
The interface module is exchangeable during the meter operation. Fit the interface module in the meter as follows:
LED Displays
Three LED’s display the current operating status of the module and give information about the data transfer.

Communication (Modbus RTU, Protocol Converter)
The interface port RS485 is conforming to “Modbus Application Protocol V1.1b”: Modbus RTU (Remote Terminal Unit). Fixed baud rate from the 2nd electrical interface (see EMH COMBI-TOOL-Software: communication interfaces, set please the data transmission at a fixed baud rate without baud rate changeover), data format: 8N1;
The following rules define the protocol for information transfer between a Modbus MASTER and the Interface Module XC Modbus:
The module supports only the “Modbus RTU Mode of Transmission”: Read Holding Registers. Transmission settings: 8N1 (1 start bit, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit).  All communications on the RS485 bus conform to a MASTER/SLAVE scheme. In this scheme,
information and data is transferred between a Modbus MASTER device (e.g. AMR Software) and up to 32 SLAVE devices (Modbus Interface Module XC).
The MASTER initiates and controls all information transfer on the communications loop.  A SLAVE device never initiates a communications sequence.  All communications activity on the loop occurs in the form of “PACKETS”. A packet is a serial
string of 8 bit / byte. The maximum number of bytes contained within one packet is 255.
All packets transmitted by a MASTER are REQUESTS. All packets transmitted by a SLAVE are
RESPONSES.
At most one SLAVE can respond to a single request from a MASTER. The Modbus module supports the Function Code 3 (Read Holding Registers) with signed 32 bit
values (Signed Int32, Type D). All values includes 2 words (registers) with 16 bits each: first register (even register addresses: 0,2,4,6...) for high-word and second register (odd register addresses: 1,3,5,7...) for low-word.
Example:
Value = 12345678
(32 bit := 4 Byte) start at register address 20:
Hex
The Modbus module uses for ID-Address the first data value in the service data list (TS): register addresses 0 and 1. For setting the value use please the EMH COMBI-TOOL-Software.
Possible value range: 1 to F7
:= 1 to 247

Accepting the meter data
The Modbus module reads the service data list (TS) from the meter periodically (interval between two readings: ca. 0.5 seconds) and creates an internal table with 16 bit registers (words): first data value from meter is saved at register 0 and 1 (ID-Address). Via Modbus is it possible to read all this registers.
Values at empty registers := FFFF

All meter values between curved brackets (OBIS coded) will be transformed to 32 bit values. Possible range of the values: -231 to 231-1 (-2147483648

Parameterisation of the meter (EMH COMBI-TOOL-Software)
At the first read the read all data from the meter (via optical IR interface):
Baud rate
The Interface Module XC Modbus uses the same baud rate like the communication interface at the meter. For setting use please the EMH COMBI-TOOL-Software: menu Meter Interfaces Electrical supplement / aditional interface:
For correct working set please a fixed bad rate (e.g. 9600 baud). If you use the baud rate changeover according to mode C: the communication is possible with 300 baud only. For the addressing set the
value “optionally” or “ignore”. Reset
Note: The EMH LZQJ-XC meter performs automatically a daily reset at 00:00 in the interface module.

Service Data / (Service Table TS) and Modbus ID-Address
For setting the meter data list use menu Lists Reading lists Service Table TS:
Note 1: The Modbus module uses for ID-Address the first data value in the service data list
(TS): register addresses 0 and 1. In this example we use the identification number 1 (OBIS 0.0.1) for ID-Address: menu Meter Meter ID OBIS Register 0.0.1, e.g. value 123 (:= 00000123):
Note 2: Only the first 125 values from the service data list (TS) will be used.
