PowerMonitor 500 Overview
Chapter 1
About the PowerMonitor 500
Unit
The PowerMonitor 500 unit is an AC power monitor with a built-in advanced
configuration system and LCD data display. The unit is designed for
measurement of electrical parameters in a variety of three-phase and single-phase
circuits. The unit is enclosed in a modular housing for panel mounting, with
IP65 degree of protection in front of the panel. The power monitor can be
provided with analog or digital outputs. These outputs can be selected to output
a pulse proportional to the real and reactive energy measured, or to annunciate
alarms. The instrument can also be equipped with a serial RS-485/RS-232 port,
or an EtherNet/IP port, and analog outputs.
Equipped with an optional communication port, the unit communicates power
and energy parameters to applications, such as FactoryTalk® EnergyMetrix™
software. The power monitor works with these software applications to address
these key customer applications:
• Load profiling - log power parameters such as real energy, apparent power,
and demand, for analysis of power usage by loads over time
• Cost allocation - reporting actual energy cost by department or process to
integrate energy information into management decisions
• Billing and sub-billing - charging users of energy the actual usage cost
rather than allocating by square footage or other arbitrary methods
• Power system monitoring and control - display and control power flow and
energy utilization
PowerMonitor 500 Features
and Functions
The power monitor connects to the user's three-phase or single-phase AC power
system directly or through instrument transformers (PTs and CTs). It converts
instantaneous voltage and current values to digital values, and uses the resulting
digital values in calculations of voltage, current, power, energy, and demand.
The power monitor family includes several models that combine the following
basic components:
• A panel-mounted power monitor in one of two AC voltage ranges: 240
(208Y/120V) or 690Y/400V
• An optional pair of relay outputs
• An optional pair of 0…20 mA analog outputs
• Optional serial RS-232/RS-485 communication supporting Modbus
RTU
• Optional Ethernet port supporting EtherNet/IP and Modbus TCP
• Front protection degree: IP65, NEMA 4X, NEMA 12

Wiring Diagrams
The wiring diagrams in this manual are drawn with European (IEC) conventions.
For convenience, a connection diagram is shown below in IEC style on the left
and in its corresponding NEMA style (used in the U.S.) on the right.
Figure 7 - Wiring Diagram Interpretation
These diagrams are simplified. Wiring of the power monitor must comply with
all applicable codes, standards, and regulations. Voltage and control power wiring
must be protected by suitable overcurrent protection. Connect current
transformer (CT) secondary wiring through a suitable shorting terminal block.
In these diagrams, ‘balanced load’ configurations permit 3-phase
measurement by using only one phase connection. Unbalance in the measured
circuit impacts the accuracy of the measurements.

Unit Configuration
Chapter 3
Configure with the Display
The PowerMonitor 500 unit provides menu-based configuration (programming)
by using its front panel display. The programming menus let you select
parameters to edit, select digits within parameters, and increase or decrease the
value of each digit.
Place the unit in Programming mode by pressing Program/select (8) for about
2 seconds. The front panel displays the PASSWORD? menu page 0 in Editing
mode. Enter the correct password by using the Up and Down arrows (the default
password is 0) and press Program/select. The front panel then displays the
CHANGE PAS menu page 10.
Refer to the programming flow chart beginning on page 26
organization of programming menus and sub-menus. Each page is identified with
a number. Menu page numbers end in zero, while sub-menu pages end in
1 through 9. For example, the Change Password page is menu 10. Likewise, the
Dmd page is menu 80, and the demand interval Time page is menu 82.
While you are programming the power monitor, the display items and control
buttons function one way when you are navigating between menu or sub-menu
pages, and another way when you are editing a menu page.
