In order to use the device safely, it is critical that individuals who handle it follow
the safety measures set out in the standards of the country where it is being used,
use the necessary personal protective equipment, and pay attention to the various warnings indicated in this instruction manual.
The CEM-C31 device must be installed by authorised and qualied staff.
The power supply plug must be disconnected and measuring systems switched off before
handling, altering the connections or replacing the device. It is dangerous to handle the device
while it is powered.
Also, it is critical to keep the cables in perfect condition in order to avoid accidents, personal
injury and damage to installations.
The manufacturer of the device is not responsible for any damage resulting from failure by the
user or installer to observe the warnings and/or recommendations set out in this manual, nor for
damage resulting from the use of non-original products or accessories or those made by other
manufacturers.
If an anomaly or malfunction is detected in the device, do not use the device to take any measurements.
Inspect the work area before taking any measurements. Do not take measurements in dangerous areas or where there is a risk of explosion.
Disconnect the device from the power supply (device and measuring system
power supply) before maintaining, repairing or handling the device's connections.
Please contact the after-sales service if you suspect that there is an operational fault in the device.

The weight of the LEDs is 20,000 imp/kWh (kvarh).
The LEDs will remain lit when the current is lower than the energy meter start-up current. Once
the start-up current is exceeded (due to active or reactive power consumption) the LEDs are
turned off and emit impulses that are proportional to the measured energy.

7.1.- INFRARED COMMUNICATIONS PORT (Model CEM-C31-T1)
The CEM-C31-T1 model, in all versions, the has a serial optical communications port, in compliance with the UNE EN 62056-21:2003 Standard.
7.2.- RS-485 COMMUNICATIONS PORT (Models CEM-C31-485-xx)
The CEM-C31-485-T1 and CEM-C31-485-DS models has an RS-485 communication port, with
MODBUS RTU ® protocol.
7�2�1�- CONNECTION
The RS-485 cable must be made up of a twisted pair cable with a braided shield with a
maximum distance of 1,200 metres between the CEM-C31-485-xx and the master device.
A maximum of 32 devices can be connected to this bus.
Use an intelligent RS-232 to RS-485 network protocol converter to establish communications
with the master device.

7�2�2�- MODBUS PROTOCOL
The MODBUS protocol is a communication standard in the industry that enables the network
connection of multiple devices, where there is a master and multiple slaves. Within the
MODBUS protocol the CEM-C31-485-xx uses the RTU (Remote Terminal Unit) mode.
In RTU mode, message starts and ends are detected with silences of at least 3.5 characters,
and the 16-bit CRC error-detection method is used.
The MODBUS functions implemented in the device are:
Functions 03 and 04. Reading registers.
Function 10. Writing multiple registers.
7�2�2�1�- Read commands
The CEM-C31-485-xx supports integer type read functions: 0x03 and 0x04.
Example: Reading of the device’s serial number with peripheral number 01.
We will send the following Modbus frame:
AddressFunction
010427100002CRC
Initial
register

no�
CRC
The device will respond to us with the next frame:
AddressFunctionNo� of bytesSerial no�CRC
010404XXXX XXXXCRC
Note: The values are shown in hexadecimal.
The number of requested registers must be the same as the size of the variable requested.
It is possible to read several consecutive addresses, if the request meets the correct format.
7�2�2�2�- Write commands
42
The CEM-C31-485-xx supports integer type write Functions: 0x10.
Example: Changing the Modbus address of peripheral 01 to the address0x000A.
