if the type Pulse
0 – measure time between pulses
1 – measure performance
Description of the calculation of energy:
DC energy(consumption)
Assigned Type=Energy, 1.hr=(0..7), 2.hrs=(0..7)
Because Ether4 has no clock circuit, it is based on crystal frequency of processor (its accuracy
indicates the accuracy of the calculation of energy). About every 1,6s (exactly 3*2^26/(125*10^6) )
timer overflow occurs and at this time is calculated energy.
< Energy > = <Energy> + <1.hr> * <2.hr> / 2235.174
This value is roughly every minute saved in EEPROM (set minute, because memory has a limited
number of entries).
To view the energy is used calculation
<Value> = <Energy> * <Constant>
This allows display energy in Wh (Constant = 1.0), or in kWh (Constant = 0.001)
Consumption of connected meter with SO output
Assigned: Type=Energy, 1.hr=8, 2.hr=(0..1)
Note: because the binary inputs are connected as follows
Connected meter must “master“ level voltage 3,3V. We tested measurement the consumption with
electricity meter Maneler 9901.
Consumption is calculated every 1,6s as follows
< Consumption> = < Consumption > + <Number of pulses>
and the displayed value is
< Consumption > = < Consumption > * <Constant>
where the constant is determined by the type of meter.

Work with pulses:
The time between pulses
Assigned Type=Pulse, 1.hr=(0..1), 2.hrs=0
Pulse lenght is calculated as follows
<Value> = <n> / <Constant>
where <n> is the number of CPU ticks ( 1s = 125*10^6/(3*2^8) ticks )
Constant = 40690,104 specifies delay in seconds
Measurement of immediate consumption
Assigned Type=Pulse, 1.hr=(0..1), 2.hrs=1
Immediate consumption is calculated as follows
<Value> = <Constant> * 40690,104 / <n>
Note: <n> may take up maximum 2^32, which corresponding about 29 hours
Des.m. – number of decimal places
Use – use the control limits
MIN, MAX, Hyst – parameters of limits
Trap, Mail – when exceeding the limits is sent trap, mail
Error – Trap, Mail - when fail is sent trap, mail
Output – Use – when exceeding the limits the output is activated
Negation – output operates in reverse
Number v. – which output is activated

5.6 Custom alarms – set custom alarms
Limits are used to monitor values like limits on measurement. Use for setting thermostat, that enter
into user alarms.
Type : select the type of thermostat
Value1 : input value to the thermostat
Value2 : if selected, the difference of Value1-Value2 enters to the thermostat
Low1, High1 : limits of the thermostat for mod=0
Low2, High2 : limits of the thermostat for mod=1
Ether4 operates in mode 0. Over TCP can be changed mod to 1, so without having to reconfigure
the limits of thermostats, You can change the level of monitoring limits only with single
command.

Each user alarm consists of logical operations between individual operands. Using the timer
function, signals can be delayed (it used max. 8 timers). Based on the evaluation of the user alarm
sends a trap, mail or switches associated output. Alarm is evaluated from left to right and
parentheses indicate priority.
As an operand can be used:
- Alarm … status of the binary input
- Value alarm … limits of measured values
- Error … measurement error
- Limits … custom alarm limits
- Custom alarm … another user alarm
Timer function are (dT – duration in seconds):
- FTON(dT) … delay of rising edge
- FTOFF(dT) … delay of falling edge
- FPULS(dT) … pulse after rising edge

7. Upgrade firmware
Program Ether4_FW.exe used to store the new firmware to Ether4.
IP adresa Ether4 – IP address of card
File – to select the file with the new FW
Send – upgrades the new FW – communication status is printed in window
After the Send command performs the following:
- Card restarts
- Introduce a bootloader with the current IP address and MAC address
- Introduce the new FW
- The card will reboot and after about 4 seconds starts new program
In carrying out the upgrade should not be broken the connection or power card. If this happens, the
card is broken – it only runs bootloader. When communication is interrupted, procedure may be
performed again. If power is interrupted, bootloader does not use set IP address, but the deafult
(192.168.1.103) and the upgrade must be performed with this IP address.
