There are two meters in the PowerScout HD Series: the PS12HD and the PS48HD. These meters monitor
the voltage, current, power, energy, and many other electrical parameters on single and three-phase
electrical systems. A PSHD meter uses direct connections to each phase of the voltage, and uses current
transformers to monitor each phase of the current. Information on energy use, demand, power factor,
line frequency, and more are derived from these voltage and current inputs.
The PSHD meter is not meant to be a standalone energy recorder, rather it is connected as a slave
device to a data logger, Remote Terminal Unit (RTU), or Building Management host network. The PSHD
meter communication interfaces include Ethernet (LAN), RS-485 serial with WIFI under development.
The protocols supported by the meter include BACnet Master Slave Token Passing (MS/TP) or Modbus
RTU protocol for sending commands and retrieving data. A USB port is also provided as the preferred
connection for on-site configuration and can be run concurrently with an RTU.

Meter installation often includes coordination between individuals or groups of people with
different responsibilities. Spend a few minutes considering who will be executing each portion
of the installation and what tools are needed at each stage. These include determining how to
communicate with the meter, setting address configuration, installing ViewPoint HD, access to
passwords, etc. The more tasks completed before installation means less time in the field. The
following section gives an overview of these activities followed by details in the next section.
CONFIGURATION &DATA VIEWINGOPTIONS
The PowerScout HD meter has three methods for configuration and data viewing. The most
powerful interface is provided with a PC, Laptop or Tablet running Windows and is encouraged
for complex installations. The second interface is intended for smart phones or tablets that can
connect over USB, Ethernet, or WiFi. The third interface (LCD) is intended for intermittent end
user observation and is restricted in capability. The RTU can also be used for configuration if
communication settings are already established. The feature set of each interface is
summarized below:
This section is written to support setting up the PSHD in an office environment and
configuring the power meter for a pre-determined configuration. In many cases the
setup is standardized for an organization or project. In other cases, the setup can be
documented and forwarded to an electrician as a wiring schedule. The setup can also
be performed on site and reflect “as built” configurations.
Install the Software
Insert the ViewPoint HD thumb drive into the computer or download from
http://dentinstruments.com/software-downloads
The installer should start automatically. If it does not, browse the thumb drive and locate the
ViewPointInstaller.exe program. Start the installer by double-clicking ViewPointInstaller.exe and follow
the installer instructions.
Connect the Meter using USB (Power & Communications)
Figure 2: Preferred Connection via USB AB Cable
The preferred method for configuring the PSHD meter from a locally connected computer is through the
USB interface which provides power to the meter as well as communications. The meter will draw
500mA from the USB port which may overload “out of spec” USB hosts, if the meter fails to power from
USB then the alternate method (described below) must be used.
F. Plug the meter into the USB port (DENT Instruments will appear on the LCD (if equipped)).
G. Launch the ViewPoint HD application and press the “CONNECT USING USB” button on the
pop-up window.
The meter should now be communicating. Viewpoint HD is an intuitive application, read the Viewpoint
HD overview section (below) or watch the tutorial videos for additional information on configuring the
meter.
If configuration using USB is not available, the Ethernet connection can also be used provided the meter
can be powered from a voltage source such as a customer-supplied USB wall charger (>500mA) or from
AC power if the meter is already installed.
Figure 3: Alternate Connection
H. Connect the meter to an Ethernet LAN Router running a DNS Server.
I. Apply power to the meter.
J. Observe the IP address displayed on the LCD screen (Splash Screen) or navigate to About Meter
using the meter push button interface (see Appendix A).
You may also connect directly to a Laptop or Desktop PC but your IP Address and Subnet must
match the meter to connect to it (summarized below).
K. Launch the ViewPoint HD application and press the “CONNECT USING ETHERNET” button on the
pop up window.
The meter should now be communicating. Viewpoint HD is an intuitive application; read the
Viewpoint HD overview section (below) and/or watch the tutorial videos on the DENT website for
additional information on configuring the meter.
ViewPoint HD is a Windows application and is the most versatile software tool for configuring and
verifying a PSHD meter. All functions and menus are accessed under the central drop-down list which

This section is intended to support the physical installation of the meter and
provide guidance on connecting the current transformers (CTs) correctly within
the electrical load center and to the PSHD meter.
Meter Mounting Configurations
DENT PowerScout HDMS meters are sold in several form factors. Enclosures are designed to be wall
mounted and connected to electrical conduit. Plate mounted versions are ready to be mounted inside a
customer supplied NEMA enclosure and offer IP20 protection. RAW pcba’s need to be mounted on
customer-provided stand offs (0.5” in length or longer) and mounted in a NEMA-rated enclosure. Care
should be taken not to flex the circuit board during mounting.
The plastic enclosure itself can be used as a template for marking the drill locations on the wall.
If the meter is not available for use as a drill template a drawing indicating the spacing between
mounting holes can be found in the appendix. The centerline holes are intended for fastening to wall
studs. If hollow wall fasteners are used the outer 4 mounting points are recommended.
Connect the voltage leads (L1, L2, L3, and N, as necessary) to the meter through a dedicated disconnect
or circuit breaker. A voltage lead of 14 AWG THHN Minimum 600VAC rating (or equivalent) is required.
IMPORTANT: Verify the circuit breaker is marked as the disconnect breaker for the meter.

COMMUNICATION & VERIFICATION - DETAILS
This section is intended to support the commissioning of the PSHD meter by an
instrumentation technician. In many cases the electrical installation is conducted
ahead of the availability of the RTU or was performed by a different installer. Often
the technician is working in concert with a remote programmer who is confirming
the connectivity with a remote host system. A Digital Multi Meter (DMM) can be
used to confirm measurements at the board terminals if necessary.
It is assumed that the meter is now powered up from line voltage. It is safe to
touch the meter (including the user buttons) with the top cover removed
ONLY IF THE INTERNAL HIGH VOLTAGE COVER IS INSTALLED!
Communications settings, and spot checking real time data values can be confirmed quickly
using the LCD interface. If significant setup modifications are anticipated a computer interface
is recommended.
Physical Connections on an RS-485 Multidrop Network
The PSHD meter uses a 2-Wire Half Duplex RS-485 Implementation.
Termination Resistors—are NOT included on the PSHD meter. If the PSHD meter is at
the end of a daisy-chain, then connect a 120-ohm leaded resistor between the + and –
terminal at the connector.
Bias Resistors—are NOT included on the PSHD meter. Bias resistors are needed If the
idle conditions of the bus are in an indeterminant logic voltage. Bias resistors are usually
located at the master node.
Network Topology—RS-485 is designed to be implemented as a daisy chain (series
connections) rather than star or cascade topologies.
Signal Names—Some RS-485 devices use the terminology A/B while others use +/-. Note
that A is (-) and B is (+). Many manufacturers incorrectly label the terminals.
BACnet MS/TP and Modbus RTU are standard communication protocols that allow for communication
between a client and multiple devices connected to the same network. RS-485 is the hardware’s
physical interface while BACnet or Modbus is the networking protocol.

CONNECTIONS ON A LANETHERNET NETWORK
The PSHD meter uses IEEE 802.3 Ethernet connectivity running at a 10/100 Mbps. Ethernet networks are
limited by the number of available IP addresses for both Ethernet Modbus and BACnet meters.
DHCP
If the PSHD meter is configured for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) when the meter is
powered on or the Ethernet cable is inserted the meter is assigned an IP address by the DHCP server.
This address appears on the meter LCD or can be found through connection with ViewPoint or the
Webpage. The IP address assigned to the meter should be regarded as a temporary address as the
address may change between power cycles, making it difficult for the host system to know how to find
the meter on the network.
STATICIP
If the PSHD meter is set to a static IP then its internet address is fixed. I.P. addresses should be assigned
by an IT department to avoid multiple devices on the same network. This scheme is usually used when
an RTU is expecting to find the meter at a specific IP address. The address can be changed in ViewPoint HD>Communication Setup or through registers.
Pulse outputs are available to export energy consumption data to
generic accumulators that cannot communicate using a data
interface. For example: this interface could be used by a data
aggregator that is measuring natural gas and electricity.
The PS48HD meter has two pulse outputs that can be configured
to report the energy on any element. The output will “toggle”
every time the energy has reached a threshold value. This value
is computed based on the meter configuration and reported as a
read only register (see the register list Excel file).
OPEN COLLECTOR OUTPUT
The pulse output is electrically isolated from the meter power supply and requires the user to connect a
voltage source (5–30 VDC), a ground wire (connected to the host ground), and a pullup resistor. A 10K
resistor is the recommended value.
Figure 7: Output Connections
12VOLT AUXILIARY POWER
The PSHD meter provides an auxiliary 12 volt, 200 ma output that is designed to power wireless
communication devices or sensors. The output is unregulated and protected by a self-resetting fuse. If
full rated current is drawn from this terminal the minimum operating voltage of the L1-L2 power supply
increase from 90 VAC to 100 VAC.
The PS48HD has three levels of PIN protection that users can choose to assign for restricting access to
meter information. The default meter configuration is none. PINs are 4 digits and are stored as a user
setting in the non-volatile memory of the meter. PINs are also accessible as registers but are encoded so
that reading the value of the register through an RTU does not inform a user what the password is. This
feature allows DENT Instruments to support looking up forgotten PINs if network access is available.
Access Restriction Limitations
If security levels have been set up in the meter no data is accessible through the LCD user interface or
web page without entering the PIN credentials. Note however that protocols such as Modbus do NOT
SUPPORT ANY LEVEL OF security such that any network traffic acting as a master can retrieve and write
data from the registers. Generally, this will require knowledge of the IP address or slave ID and the
register list which discourages casual intrusion. Factory level registers cannot be over-written by the RTU
without a factory PIN.
ViewPoint HD
The ViewPoint HD software tool can be used to read & write configuration to the meter without
entering credentials. Factory level registers cannot be accessed without a factory PIN.
Read Only
Read only permissions allow users to read data or configuration items but not make any changes. This
level of authorization might be appropriate for general end users such as building owners.
ViewPoint HD: (set or changed in advanced tab)
WebPage: (set or changed in advanced tab)
LCD: (user mode only, cannot change from this interface)
Read/Write
Read/Write permissions allow users to read and write configuration items and to set new passwords.
This level of authorization will be required by any technician of user who needs the ability to correct
setup errors in the meter.
Once the PSHD meter is configured and operating it is a good idea to perform some simple checks to
ensure that all the CTs are on the correct voltage phases and that the CTs are facing the correct
direction. The following are recommendations that work for typical installations. Special circuit
conditions like unloaded motors may indicate an installation error when none exists. A Digital
Multimeter (DMM) can be used to confirm RMS and VA values.
CTORIENTATION CHECK
The PSHD meter reports power and energy in each electrical quadrant under a different register. When
CTs are installed backwards the indicated current vector is oriented 180 degrees away from the true
displacement angle. In accordance with standard definitions the Wattage and VARs of the effected
channel report with a sign opposite from what is expected. Often this means that the import registers
will be reading zero while the export registers are showing a value. Note that backward CTs have no
impact on the amplitude of the Power Factor. A moderate power factor (>0.7) in concert with a negative
power is a clue that the CT is on backwards but is on the correct phase.
I Ref (Indicated)
Figure 8: Electrical Power Quadrants with Reversed CT shown
Check that the wattage has the correct sign (Designated + for loads)
ViewPoint HD: Real Time Values > (Confirm Sign of Power For All Elements)
WebPage: Real Time Values > (Confirm Sign of Power For All Elements)
LCD: Real Time Values > (Confirm Sign of Power for Each Element)
If a CT is discovered to be on backwards after the installation is complete the direction of the
CT can be reversed through a user configuration register designed for this purpose called the
“Flipper” located at 2226,2235, and 2234.
When a CT is installed on the incorrect phase the indicated current vector is pointing either 180 degrees
away (a split phase system) or 120 degrees away (a three-phase system) from the true displacement
angle. This usually causes the significant decrease in the loads reported power factor. When the
absolute power factor of a load is below 0.55 the PSHD meter will flag it as phasing error.

This section is intended for the programmer of the RTU or host system and includes
details about meter and element addressing, register locations, data formats and
protocol examples.
REGISTER ORGANIZATION
The PSHD meter communicates through the reading and writing of registers. Registers are organized
into functional groups and are compliant with the SunSpec Modbus interface model.
SunSpec Common Registers
SunSpec TCP Network Stack Registers
SunSpec Serial Interface Registers
SunSpec Energy Meter
DENT Factory Registers
DENT User Command Registers
DENT User Configuration Registers
DENT Metrology Registers
DENT Daughter Card Registers
DENT Waveform Capture Registers
The complete register set is included as an excel file on the supplied thumb drive or at
When reading the value of a register the scope is defined as belonging to an “Element” if each Modbus
Slave Address (or BACnet object instance) contains a unique value. Physically speaking elements are
grouped into sets of threes and given alphabetic assignments {A, B, C, etc). and are marked on the silk
screen of the circuit board. Registers that contain data inclusive of more than one channel are identified
as being either SUMS or AVERAGES of the enabled channels within an element.
Channel
Channels are identified on the circuit board as CH1, CH2, or CH3 and represent physical CT inputs. In
three phase system configurations, these correspond to a current load on a corresponding line voltage.
In single phase configurations, they are just used to identify a CT location. Registers providing data for
an individual channel are also described as elements in their scope as a unique value exists for each
Slave Address or BACnet object instance.
System
The term “System” refers to registers defining the characteristics of the entire circuit board, system
registers report the same value independent of the slave address.
CONFIGURING ELEMENT AND CHANNEL REGISTER FOR SERVICE TYPES
The ViewPointHD software enforces all element configurations to form a valid electrical system.
Configurations performed by remote systems may produce unexpected results if configurations are
internally inconsistent. The following tables document how to configure element and channel registers
for each service type. Every register should be explicitly written.
Red Text indicates Required Values, Purple Text Indicates Suggested Defaults if this data is not known.
Modbus Absolute Address/BACnet Object Assignments For Setting up Service Types
Configurations
Channels Volt Ref CT Type Range Phase Shift CT
Even though CH2 is calculated internally it is recommended that the CT settings reflect those from CH1 rather than being left at factory default
to facilitate configuration validation from the RTU.
Any channel that needs to be turned OFF should set the CT Type to OFF.
Communication & Verification
Even though CH3 is not used for computation it is recommended that the CT settings reflect those from CH1 rather than being left at factory
default to facilitate configuration validation from the RTU.
Even though disabled channels are not used in calculations and report 0.0 they still contain configuration information. It is suggested that they
be set to a known value rather than left at defaults to facilitate configuration validation by the RTU.
If configured for Modbus, the PSHD networked power meter family follows the Modbus RTU protocol
and supports the following command set.
Supported Modbus Commands
Command Name
Read Holding Registers 03 Used to read the data values from the PowerScout.
Write Single Register 06 Used to write a single holding register to a PowerScout.
Report Slave ID 11 Used to read information from the identified PowerScout.
SLAVE ADDRESS
Refer to the section “Serial Protocols” for additional information on setting the Slave Address and
finding the address of a specific meter element.

documentation for additional support on programming Modbus. The following online resources are also
helpful.

an American National, European, and ISO global standard.
BACnet Device ID. All device IDs on a BACnet network must be unique. Refer to the section “Serial
Protocols” and refer to the Register List for additional information.
Serial
Ethernet
The PSHD Serial version supports writable max_master and max_info_frames properties in the device
object for MS/TP networks. For best network performance, the max_master should be set to the highest
MS/TP MAC address on the network. The max_info_frames does not need to be changed in most
installations.
Ethernet versions can register as Foreign Devices to a BBMD. BBMD stand for BACnet/IP Broadcast Management Device. The address also can be written to BACnet object identifiers 14014 (BBMD IP
Address LSW) and 14015 (BBMD IP Address MSW).
NOTE: The LSW/MSW are in network order.
For example, to set the BBMD server to 192.168.1.100 you would write:
43200 (0xA8C0) to BBMD IP address LSW object identifier 14014
-and-
25601 to (0x6401) to BBMD IP address MSW object Identifier 14015
This sends the register as foreign device packet with a Time to Live (TTL) of 60000 seconds.
To disable BBMD foreign device registration write 0 to both BBMD IP address LSW (14014) and BBMD
IP address MSW (14015) or simply write 0.0.0.0 to the BBMD field in the ViewPoint Communications
tab.
