Energy Pulse LED
The EM13X Series has a red “Energy Pulse” LED. It flashes at a
constant rate when a load is applied to the meter.
There are two modes of LED operation:
NORMAL mode: the LED pulses indicate imported Wh at a rate of
1,000 pulses per kWh
TEST mode: the LED pulses indicate either imported Wh, or
imported (inductive) varh at a rate of 10,000 pulses per kWh/kvarh
The energy test mode can be enabled through the Device Options
setup. When in test mode, the energy and demand accumulators do
not account for consumed energy.
COMPort Activity LEDs
The meter has two yellow LEDs “RX” and “TX”, which indicate activity
on the COM1 communication port. The LEDs flash when the port is
receiving or transmitting data.
VOLTAGES LEDs
The meter has three green LEDs “L1, "L2" and "L3”, which indicate
voltage measurement input presence. When LEDs are "ON", that
means that the voltage measurement inputs exist in the meter
Navigation Buttons
The EM13X Series is provided with two push buttons that are normally
used to navigate between different measurement displays.
The "UP" and "DOWN" function of buttons changes depending on what
operating mode the display is in. In programming mode, the buttons
access the device setup menus where the default factory-set device
settings can be changed.
Chapter 3 Using Front Display Display Operations
EM13x Series SMART MULTIFUNCTION METER 57
3.1 Display Operations
The EM13X Series has a high-contrast graphical LCD display with
backlight for local data read outs, meter setup and servicing.
The display operates in two modes:
Multi-page data display mode with Auto-Scroll feature allows you to
scroll through display screens and pages to view various billing,
instrumentation and status data.
Programming mode allows you to enter menu-driven device setups
for inspecting and changing factory set meter parameters, or
resetting maximum demands, counters and device diagnostics
messages. The display is normally updated once per second except
of the clock display where the update rate changes to twice per
second.
Navigation Buttons
The EM13X Series is provided with two navigation buttons,
SELECT/ENTERbutton and SCROLL button.
You can perform three types of actions with each button:
Short press, or “press and release”
Long press, or “press and hold for 1 to 2 seconds”
Extended press, or ”press and hold for 5 seconds or longer ”
The function of each button changes depending on what operating
mode the display is in.
The SCROLL button operates once it is briefly pressed. It has two
functions:
In data display mode, it scrolls through the display pages.
In programming mode, it scrolls through the menu items and allows
changing a selected digit when entering numbers.
The SELECT/ENTER button normally operates once it’s released. The
button function changes depending on the time the button is pressed:
In data display mode, when pressed briefly and released, it scrolls
through the display views; a long press for more than 5 seconds
switches to programming mode.
In programming mode, when pressed briefly and released, it moves
from one menu item to another; a long press for one second selects
a highlighted menu item allowing to enter a submenu or to store a
changed item.
In data display mode, when the SCROLL and SELECT/ENTER buttons
are briefly pressed together and then released, the current display
returns to the start page; in some pages, an extended press for more
than 5 seconds is used as a “shortcut” for immediate entering a
specific programming menu.

Display Features
The EM13X Series display has a number of programmable features that
can be disabled, enabled and adjusted via the meter Display Setup
(see Display Setup in Chapter 5).
Backlight
A short press on any button while the display backlight is off switches
the backlight on.
The backlight stays on as long as you selected in the display setup and
then dims to conserve power. The backlight time is factory set to 1
minute and can be programmed from 1 to 10 minutes. You can
temporarily set the backlight to continuous operation if you need to
work in dark for more time.
Auto-Return
If the Auto-Return feature is enabled and no button is pressed for the
programmable Auto-Return interval (1 to 30 minutes for data displays;
fixed at 5 minutes for setup menus), the display automatically returns
to the default page from any other data display or a setup menu.
If the Auto-Scroll feature is enabled, the display immediately enters
the auto scroll sequence.
Auto-Scroll
If the Auto-Scroll feature is enabled, the data display automatically
scrolls through all pages of all data displays that are included into the
programmable auto-scroll sequence. The scroll interval is adjustable in
the range of 2 to 30 seconds. The scroll sequence may include all or
only selected displays.
The display automatically enters auto scrolling if no button is pressed
for the Auto-Return interval when the Auto-Return feature is enabled
or in 1 minute if this feature is disabled. In the last case, the scroll
sequence is restored from the point where it was interrupted.
To stop auto scrolling, press briefly any button if the backlight is on;
else press briefly any button twice since the first press only sets the
backlight on and does not affect auto scrolling.
Auto-Scroll is not operational in TEST mode.

Power Calculation Modes
The power calculation mode option allows you to change the method
for calculating reactive and apparent powers in presence of high
harmonics. The options work as follows:
When the reactive power calculation mode is selected, active and
reactive powers are measured directly and apparent power is
calculated as:
22
QPS
This mode is recommended for electrical networks with low harmonic
distortion, commonly with THD < 5% for volts, and THD < 10% for
currents. In networks with high harmonics, the second method is
preferable.
When the non-active power calculation mode is selected, active
power is measured directly, apparent power is taken as product S =
V x I, where V and I are the RMS volts and amps, and reactive power
(called non-active power) is calculated as:
22

Configuring Digital Inputs
The EM13X Series can be provided with two digital inputs (standard)
and 4, 8 or 12 optional digital inputs that can be linked to control
setpoints to give an indication on input status change (see Configuring
Alarm/Control Setpoints), or can be linked to general pulse counters to
count incoming pulses (see Configuring Counters). They can also be
linked to the Billing/TOU registers to count pulses from external
wattmeters or gas and water meters.

Output parameter
See Appendix B
Selects the measured parameter to be
transmitted through the analog output
channel.
Zero scale
Defines the low engineering scale (in
primary units) for the analog output
corresponding to a lowest (zero) output
current (0 or 4 mA)
Full scale
Defines the high engineering scale (in
primary units) for the analog output
corresponding to a highest output current
(1 or 20 mA)
When you select an output parameter for the analog output channel,
the default engineering scales are set automatically. They correspond
to the maximum available scales. If the parameter actually covers a
lower range, you can change the scales to provide a better resolution
on an analog output.
Scaling Non-Directional Analog Outputs
For non-directional analog outputs with a 0-1mA, 0-20mA or 4-20mA
current option, you can change both zero and full engineering scales
for any parameter. The engineering scale need not be symmetrical.
Scaling Directional Power Factor
The engineering scale for the signed power factor emulates analog
power factor meters.
The power factor scale is -0 to +0 and is symmetrical with regard to
1.000 (-1.000 +1.000). The negative power factor is scaled as
-1.000 minus the measured value, and non-negative power factor is
scaled as +1.000 minus the measured value. To define the entire
power factor range from -0 to +0, the default scales are specified as -
0.000 to 0.000.
Scaling ±1mA Analog Outputs
Programming engineering scales for directional ±1mA analog outputs
depends on whether the output parameter represents unsigned (as
volts and amps) or signed (as powers and power factor) values.
For an unsigned output value, you can change both zero and full
engineering scales.
For a signed (directional) value, you should only provide the
engineering scale for the +1 mA output current.
The engineering scale for the 0 mA output current is always equal to
zero for all values except the signed power factor, for which it is set to
1.000 (see Scaling Directional Power Factor above).
Chapter 5 Configuring the EM13X Series General Meter Setup
EM13x Series SMART MULTIFUNCTION METER 91
The meter does not allow access to the low scale setting if the
parameter is directional. Whenever the sign of the output parameter is
changed to negative, the meter automatically uses the full engineering
scale setting for +1 mA with a negative sign.
Scaling Analog Outputs for 0-2 mA and ±2 mA
The 0-1mA and ±1mA current outputs provide a 100% overload, and
actually output currents up to 2 mA and ±2mA whenever the output
value exceeds the engineering scale you set for the 1 mA or ±1mA.
The output scales for 0-1 mA and ±1 mA analog outputs are
programmed for 0 mA and +1 mA regardless of the required output
current range.
To use the entire output range of 2 mA or ±2 mA, set the analog
output scales as follows:
0-2 mA: set the 1 mA scale to ½ of the required full scale output for
uni-directional parameters, and set the 0 mA scale to the negative
full scale and the 1 mA scale to zero for bi-directional parameters.
±2 mA: set the 1 mA scale to ½ of the required full-scale output for
both uni-directional and bi-directional parameters.
For example, to provide the 0 to 2 mA output current range for Volts
measured by the meter in the range of 0 to 120V, set the 1 mA scale
to 60V; then the 120V reading will be scaled to 2 mA.
Configuring Counters
The EM13X Series has four six-digit general counters that can count
pulses delivered through the device digital inputs with a programmable
scale factor. Each counter can also be incremented in response to any
internal or external event, checked and cleared through the Control
Setpoints.
Using PAS
Select General Setup from the Meter Setup menu, and then click on
the Pulse/Event Counters tab.

Chapter 5 Configuring the EM13X Series General Meter Setup
EM13x Series SMART MULTIFUNCTION METER 93
Configuring Alarm/Control Setpoints
The EM13X Series has an embedded logical controller that can perform
different actions in response to user-defined internal and external
events. Unlike a PLC, the meter uses a simplified programming
technique based on setpoints that allows the user to define a logical
expression based on measured analog and digital values that produce
a required action.
The meter provides 16 control setpoints with programmable operate
and release delays. Each setpoint evaluates a logical expression with
one trigger argument. Whenever an expression is evaluated as “true”,
the setpoint performs a programmable action that can send a
command to the output relay, or increment a counter.
The logical controller provides very fast response to events. The scan
time for all setpoints is 1 cycle time (16.6 ms at 60Hz and 20 ms at
50/400 Hz).
Using PAS
Select General Setup from the Meter Setup menu, and then click on
the Control/Alarm Setpoints tab.

Action
See Appendix C
The action performed when the setpoint
expression is evaluated to true (the
setpoint is in operated state)
Using Numeric Triggers
For numeric (analog) triggers, you can specify two thresholds for each
trigger to provide hysteresis (dead band) for setpoint operations.
The Operate Limit defines the operating threshold, and the second
Release Limit defines the release threshold for the trigger. The trigger
thresholds are specified in primary units.
If you do not want to use hysteresis for the trigger, set the Release
Limit to the same value as the Operate Limit.
Using Binary Triggers
Binary (digital) triggers like digital inputs and relays are tested for
ON/CLOSED or OFF/OPEN status.
In the PM130, the binary events are level-sensitive events. An event is
asserted all the time while the corresponding condition exists.
Delaying Setpoint Operations
Two optional delays can be added to each setpoint to extend
monitoring triggers for a longer time before reaching a decision on
whether the expected event occurred or not. When a delay is specified,
the logical controller changes the setpoint status only if all conditions
are asserted for a period of at least as long as the delay time.
Using Setpoint Events and Actions
When a setpoint status changes, i.e., a setpoint event is either
asserted or de-asserted, the following happens in your meter:
The new setpoint status is logged to the setpoint status register that
can be monitored through communications from the SCADA system
or from a programmable controller in order to give an indication on
the expected event.
The operated setpoint status is latched to the setpoint alarm latch
register that can be inspected through communications and via the
display (see Status Display in Chapter 3). The register holds the last
Chapter 5 Configuring the EM13X Series General Meter Setup
EM13x Series SMART MULTIFUNCTION METER 95
setpoint alarm status until it is explicitly cleared through
communications or via the display.
A programmable action is performed on setpoint status transition
when a setpoint event is asserted.
Generally, setpoint actions are performed independently for each
setpoint and can be repeated a number of times for the same target.
The exceptions are relay operations that are shared for each target
relay between all setpoints using an OR scheme.
A relay output is operated when one of the setpoints linked to the relay
is activated and remains operated until all of these setpoints are
released (except for latched relays that require a separate release
command to be deactivated).
Using Time Counters
Any of the general counters can be used to count the setpoint
operation time. If you select the TIME CNT n action for a setpoint, the
target counter measures the time while the setpoint is in the operated
state. The counter resolution is 0.1 hour. See Status Display in Chapter
3 on how to examine the counters via the front display.

Daylight Saving Time
When the daylight saving time is enabled, the meter automatically

begins and puts the clock back one hour when it ends. The default
daylight saving time change points are preset for the U.S.A.
The daylight saving time option is disabled in the PM130 by default. If
the daylight saving time option is disabled, you need to manually
adjust the device clock for daylight saving time.
Time Synchronization Pulses
External time synchronization pulses can be delivered through one of
the digital inputs.
If a digital input is selected as the time synchronization source, the
edge of an external pulse adjusts the device clock at the nearest whole
minute. The time accuracy could be affected by the debounce time of
the digital input, and by the operation delay of the external relay.
