The AMP1H5 DIN rail power meter provides a solution for measuring energy data with
a single device. Inputs include control power, CT, and 3-phase voltage. The meter
supports BACnet MS/TP protocol and has data logging capability and two pulse
contact inputs. The LCD screen on the faceplate allows instant output viewing.
The meter is housed in a plastic enclosure suitable for installation on T35 DIN rail
according to EN50022. It can be mounted with any orientation over the entire
ambient temperature range, either on a DIN rail or in a panel. The AMP1H5 meter is
not sensitive to CT orientation, reducing installation errors.

Mount the meter in an appropriate electrical enclosure
near equipment to be monitored.
Do not install on the load side of a Variable Frequency Drive
(VFD), aka Variable Speed Drive (VSD) or Adjustable Frequency
Drive (AFD).
The meter can be mounted in two ways: on standard 35 mm DIN rail or screwmounted to the interior surface of the enclosure.
A. DIN Rail Mounting
1. Attach mounting clips to the underside of the housing by sliding them into the
slots from the inside. The stopping pegs must face the housing, and the outside
edge of the clip must be ush with the outside edge of the housing.
2. Snap the clips onto the DIN rail. See diagram of the underside of the housing
(below).
Clip flush with
outside edge
Snap onto
Insert clips from inside

3. To prevent horizontal shifting across the DIN rail, use two end stop clips.
B. Screw Mounting
1. Attach the mounting clips to the underside of the housing by sliding them into the
slots from the outside. The stopping pegs must face the housing, and the screw
hole must be exposed on the outside of the housing.
2. Use three #8 screws (not supplied) to mount the device to the inside of the
enclosure. See diagram of the underside of the housing (below).
The AMP1H5 power meter has a number of dierent possible system wiring congurations (see Wiring Diagrams, page 5). To congure the meter, set the System Type via the
User Interface or by writing the Present_Value of AV2 with the System Type value in the table below. The System Type tells the meter which of its current and voltage inputs
are valid, which are to be ignored, and if neutral is connected. Setting the correct System Type prevents unwanted energy accumulation on unused inputs, selects the formula
to calculate the Theoretical Maximum System Power, and determines which phase loss algorithm is to be used. The phase loss algorithm is congured as a percent of the Lineto-Line System Voltage (except when in System Type 10) and also calculates the expected Line to Neutral voltages for system types that have Neutral (12 & 40).
Values that are not valid in a particular System Type will display as “----” on the User Interface or as QNAN in the BACnet objec ts.

Fuse Recommendations:
Keep the fuses close to the power source (obey local and national code requirements).
For selecting fuses and circuit breakers, use the following criteria:
• Select current interrupt capacity based on the installation category and
fault current capability.
• Select over-current protection with a time delay.
• Use a voltage rating sucient for the input voltage applied.
• Provide overcurrent protection and disconnecting means to protect
the wiring. For DC installations, provide external circuit protection.
Suggested: 0.5A, high-interrupt capability time delay fuses rated for DC
operation at or above the supply voltage.
• The earth connec tion is required for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
and is not a protective earth ground.

Set System Voltage:
V LL – The nominal Line to Line Voltage for the system. This is used
by the meter to calculate the theoretical maximum system power, and
as the reference voltage for setting the Phase Loss threshold.
Maximum is 32000 Volts. For system type 1+N (10), this is a Line to
Neutral Voltage, indicated by “V LN”. Note: the meter will reject settings
that are not within the meter’s operating range when divided by the PT
ratio.
System Power:
MX KW – The theoretical Maximum System Power is calculated by the
meter from the System Voltage, CT size, and System Type. Power
Factor is assumed to be unity. The value of System Power is used to
determine which combinations of pulse weight and duration are valid
and will keep up with the maximum power the meter will see. This value
is read only.
Set Phase Loss:
VOLTS - Phase Loss Voltage: The fraction of the system
voltage below which Phase Loss Alarm is on. For system
types with neutral, the Line to Neutral voltage is also
calculated and tested. If the System Voltage is 600 and the
fraction is set to 0.10, then the Phase Loss threshold will be
5
60 volts.
IMBAL - Phase Loss Imbalance: The fractional difference
in Line to Line voltages above which Phase Loss Alarm is
on. For system types with neutral, the Line to Neutral
voltages are also tested. For system types 1+N (10) and 2
(11) , imbalance is not tested.
Set Demand Interval:
INTRV - The number of Sub-Intervals (1 to 6) in a Demand Interval. Default is 1 (block demand).
SEC - Sub-Interval length in seconds. Default is
900 (15 minutes). Set to 0 for external sync-tocomms.

* Default values are preset a t the factory. Once changed, there is no way to automatically reset
defaults. They must be restored i ndividually. The baud rate and MAC address are set through the
user-interface screens, and the others are set by re- writing each Object (see BACnet Programming
Information section, next page).
The AMP1H5 is programmable via BACnet protocol and can easily be connected to a BACnet MS/TP network using an o-the shelf BACnet router. It uses ve types of BACnet
objects. A standard PICS (below) describes the required characteristics of the BACnet implementation, but this additional descriptive contex t may be helpful to the integrator.
In addition to the required properties, the device object utilizes some optional properties to support other functionality, Time Synchronization (primarily used for data/trend
logging on the device) and Description and Location properties to simplify installation and maintenance. Congure all of the meter’s functions, other than data logging and
writable Device Properties, by writing the Present_Value of the 11 Analog_Value objects. These values (except for the conguration register, AV1, which always returns zero
when read) are all readable and stored in nonvolatile memory so that they are retained if power to the device is interrupted.
Data values other than log information and alerts are all accessed by reading the Present_Value of the 52 Analog_Input objects. Most of these values are instantaneous
readings of measured ser vice parameters. Some of them, (AI1, AI26, AI27, AI37-AI45, AI47, AI50 and AI51) represent accumulated values and are stored in nonvolatile memory
as well. If power to the device is interrupted, these values are retained, but no additional information accumulates until the device completes its re-initialization.
Alerts are used to indicate conditions of potential concern to the installer or the system, such as input voltage or current on any phase that exceeds the meter’s measurement
range, phase voltage below the Phase Loss Threshold set by the user, or Power Factor below 0.5 on any phase. Alerts are accessible individually by reading the Present_Value
of the 15 Binary_Input objects or as a group by reading the Present_Value of Analog_Input object 52. Alerts are not latched and do not generate events to system. They
indicate presence of these conditions at the time they are read, but the device does not latch and store them until they are read (if the condition changes before they are read,
the alert will go away).
All Analog_Value, Analog_Input, and Binary_Input objects implement the reliability property and use it to indicate that the Present_Value properties are functional, valid
and current. For complete assurance, check the Reliabilt y property for a No_Fault_Detected status before reading the Present_Value of any AV, AI or BI objects.
The AMP1H5 data logging capability is implemented using three Trend_Log objects. These are described in more detail in the section on data logging.

Use the Present_Value property of the Analog_Value object for all writable variables in the meter other than those used specically for BACnet conguration or Time
Synchronization (in the Device Object) or Data Logging (in the Trend_Log objects).
Values are checked when writ ten, and errors are returned for invalid entries. This table describes how the meter uses those variables, what values are valid, and what their
defaults are. When writing values to the Present_Value properties of Analog_Value BACnet objects, there is a delay of up to about two seconds to validate and store the new
value. An immediate read of the same property before that delay has elapsed can return the prior value (even if the new value was accepted). To read a value immediately after
writing it, check the Reliability property rst. When it reports a No_Fault_Detected status, the Present_Value of the object is current.
These objects support the Description and Reliability object properties and all required Analog_Value object proper ties, but Present_Value is the only writable property.

changes all of them.
Analog_Input Objects
Use the Present_Value property of the Analog_Input objects for all read-only numeric variables in the meter other than those used specically for device conguration (in the
Device Object) or data logging (in the Trend_Log objects).
These objects support the Description and Reliability object properties and all required Analog_Input object proper ties. None of them are writable. The values that are not
instantaneous (i.e., Accumulated Energy, Max Demand, Pulse Input Counts) are non-volatile. They are not updated while control power is inactive, but their past values are
retained when power is restored.
For complete assurance, check the Reliabilty property for a No_Fault_Detected status before reading the Present_Value. If the line voltage or input frequency of the system
being monitored falls out of the supported range, the corresponding alert bits (BI1-BI7) are set and the reliability property of any values that cannot be accurately measured
under those conditions returns Unreliable_Other.

To test the meter’s alert status, read the Present_Value of each of the Binary_Input objects representing the alert bits of interest, or read the Present_Value of AI52, which

an interrupt ion (since it does not use a battery backup). It indicates that
the real-time clock has re-initialized to a default s etting (00:00:00:0 0 on
Jan 1, 2000) and should not be relied upon. The clock run, the meter will
operate and even log data, but the date and time will not be correc t until a
Time_Synchronization occurs.
The AMP1H5 includes a data logging feature that records three meter parameters, accessible via BACnet using Trend_Log objects. All three Trend_Log objects utilize shared
data logging resources in the meter, so all three are controlled in unison. All writable properties other than Log_Device_Property_Object are common to all three Trend_Log
obects. Changes to these properties (Log_Enable, Start_Time, Stop_Time, Log_Interval, Stop_When_Full or Record Count) for any one of the objects will be reected in
the corresponding property of all three objects. The Log_Interval property is also common with the Demand_Subinterval (Present_Value of AV11), since logging records are
updated synchronously with demand calculations.
Default settings cause logging to begin immediately, with 15 minute intervals and no stop time. When full, the buer wraps and overwrites the oldest data rst (unless the
Stop_When_Full property is used).
Configuration:
Use Log_Device_Object_Property to select the meter parameter to log with each object. Set this proper ty to point to Present_Value property of any of the Analog_Input
objects. The default the values for the Log_Device_Object_Property of the three Trend_Log objects are set as follows:
• TL1 = Real Energy Consumption (AI1 Present_Value)
• TL2 = Reactive Energy Consumption (AI27 Present_Value)
• TL3 = Total Real Power Present Demand (AI34 Present_Value)
The Log_Interval (& Demand Subinterval) can be set from 10 seconds to 32767 seconds (values of 1000 to 3276700). The subinterval timer, which determines how often the
meter’s demand accumulators are updated, also triggers writing to the Trend_Log log buers. Use the Log_Interval property to set the data logging time subinterval, in units
of hundredths of a second (0.01 seconds). The default subinter val is 15 minutes (a value of 90000 in the Log_Interval property). The Buer_Length is xed at 5760, so at a 15
minute interval setting, the buers hold 60 days of data.
Use the Stop_When_Full property to select either Single Shot (Stop_When_Full = TRUE) or Continuous mode (Stop_When_Full = FALSE) for data logging. The default mode
is Continuous. In Single Shot mode, the meter records data only until the buer is full. Data for this time period is kept, but newer energy information is lost. In Continuous
mode, the meter continues to record energy data as long as the meter is operating. The buer can only hold 5760 entries at one time, however, so when the number of records
exceeds 5760, the oldest entry is deleted to make room for the newest.
To start data logging with any of the three Trend_Log objects, set the Log_Enable property to TRUE or set the Start_Time and Stop_Time properties appropriately and wait
for logging to commence at Start_Time.
By default, the Record_Count property of the Trend_Log objects is initialized to Zero.
Reading Data:
Access logged data with corresponding timestamps via the Log_Buer proper ty of the Trend_Log object using the BACnet ReadRange service. The AMP1H5 supports both the
“by Position” and “by Sequence Number ” modes of the ReadRange service, but not the “by Time” mode.
