SAFETY
In the safety service scope, the N30H meter meets the requirements of
the EN 61010-1 standard.
Observations concerning the operational safety
l All operations concerning transport, installation, and commissioning
as well as maintenance, must be carried out by qualified, skilled personnel, and national regulations for the prevention of accidents must
be observed.
l The programming of N30H meter parameters must be carried out
after disconnecting measuring circuits
l Before switching the meter on, one must check the correctness of
connections.
l Do not connect the meter to the network through an autotransformer.
l Before removing the meter housing, one must switch the supply off
and disconnect measuring circuits.
l The meter is designed to be installed and exploited in electromag-
netic industrial environment conditions.
l Non-authorized removal of the housing, inappropriate use, incorrect
installation or operation, creates the risk of injury to personnel or meter
damage.
For more detailed information, please study the User’s Manual.
l When connecting the supply, one must remember that a switch or
a circuit-breaker should be installed in the building. This switch should
be located near the device, easy accessible by the operator, and
suitably marked as an element switching the meter off.

4. INSTALLATION
The meter has separable strips with screw terminals, which enable the
connection of external wires of 2.5 mm2 cross-section. Strips of input
signals are protected against any accidental disconnection by means
of a screw joint.
One must prepare a hole of 92
+0,6
´ 45
+0,6
mm in the panel, which the
thickness should not exceed 6 mm.
The meter is adapted to be mounted in a panel. The meter must be
introduced from the panel front with disconnected supply voltage. Before the insertion into the panel, one must check the correct placement
of the seal. After the insertion into the hole, fix the meter by means of
clamps (fig.2).

4.1. Signals Leads
Signals led out on the meter connectors are presented on the fig. 4.
All input signals are separated between them from remaining circuits.
Analog outputs are not separated between them. One don’t have to
take simultaneously advantage of voltage and current measurements, since measuring circuits of voltage and current are not galva-
nically isolated.
Fig. 4. Description of signals on connection strips
· 1 A, 5 A – terminals for the current measurement on the 1 A
or 5 A range.
· 100 V, 500 V – terminals for the voltage measurement on the 100 V
or 500 V range.
· OC –output of open collector type with an npn output transistor.
The output is turned on in case of a measuring range overflow.

5.4. Programming
The pressure of the push-button and holding it down through
ca 3 seconds causes the entry to the programming matrix. If the entry is
protected by a password, then the safety code symbol SEC is displayed alternately with the set value 0. The write of the correct code causes
the entry to the matrix, the write of an incorrect code causes the display
of the ErCod inscription. The matrix of transitions to the programming
mode is presented on the fig. 9. The choice of the level is made by
means of the
push-button, however the entry and moving
through the parameters of the chosen level is carried out by means of
the
and push-buttons. Parameter symbols are displayed alternately with their current values. In order to change the value
of the chosen parameter, one must use the
push-button. For
resignation from change, one must use the
push-button. In order to exit from the chosen level, one must chose the ----- symbol and
press the
push-button. To exit from the programming matrix,
one must press during ca 1 second the
push-button. Then, the
inscription End appears for ca 3 seconds and the meter transits to the
display of the measured value. In case of leaving the meter in the parameter programming mode, the automatic abandon of the programming
mode (the parameter and next the menu) follows after 30 seconds and
the meter transits to display the measured value.

5.4.4 Individual Characteristic
N30H meters can recalculated the measured value into any value
thanks to the implemented individual characteristic function. The individual characteristic rescales the input signal measured according to the
set characteristic. The way of the individual characteristic interaction on
the meter operation has been presented on the fig.10.
Fig. 10. Action of the individual characteristic
The user can introduce maximally twenty linearizing functions by giving
points defining intervals of the given function operation and expected
values for successive points. On the base of given points and corresponding values to them, coefficients a and b of recalibrating straight
lines are calculated. The programming of the individual characteristic
consists on the definition of the number of points which the input function will be linearized by. On must remember that the number of linearizing functions is less of one than the number of points. Next, one must
program successive points by giving the measured value (Hn) and the
expected value corresponding to it, – value, which has to be displayed
(Yn). The graphic interpretation of the individual characteristic is presented on the fig. 11..
23
Fig. 11. Individual characteristic
During the function approximation, one must remember that for the approximation of functions strongly differing from the linear characteristic
, the higher the number of linearizing segments, the smallest the error
related to the linearization.
If measured values are smallest from H1 then, recalculations will be
made on the base of the first straight line calculated on the base of
points (H1,Y1) an (H2,Y2). However, for values higher than Hn (where n
– the last declared measured value) the value to display will be calculated on the base of the last assigned linear function.
Note: All introduced points of the measured value (Hn) must be arranged in the increasing sequence, such to preserve the following dependence:
H1 < H2 < H3... < Hn
If the above is not fulfilled, the individual characteristic function will be
automatically switched off (will not be realized) and a diagnostic flag
will be set in the status register.

5.4.5 Alarm Types
The N30U meter is equipped with 2 alarm outputs with NOC contact
(make contact) and two alarm outputs with NOC/NCC contact (make
and break contact) (option). Each of alarms can work in one of the six
modes . The work of alarms in modes is presented in the fig. 12. : n-on,
n-off, on, off. Two remaining modes : h-on and h-off mean respectively,
always switched on and always switched off. These modes are destined for the manual simulation of alarm states.
25
Caution !
l In case of alarms of n-on, n-off, on, off types, the write of
PrL>PrH will cause the alarm switching off.
l In case of a measuring range overflow, the reaction of the relays
is compatible with written PrL, PrH, tYP parameters. In spite of the
displayed overflow, the meter still carries out the measurement.
l The meter controls currently the value of the introduced parame-
ter at the moment. In case when the introduced value overflows the
upper range given in the table 1, the meter will make automatically
the change into the maximal value. Similarly, in case when the
introduced value overflows the lower change range given in the
table 1, the meter will make automatically the change into the
minimal value.
5.4.6 Display Format
The N30H meter adapts automatically the display format (precision) to
the value of measured quantity. So that the function could be fully used,
one must choose the format 0.0000, then the meter will display the measured value with the possible highest accuracy. This function does not
operate for the time display, where the format is set automatically. The
current time (HOUr mode) is displayed in the 24 hours’ format, in the
form hh.mm, where hh – current time, and mm – current minute..

6. RS-485 INTERFACE
N30H programmable digital meters have a serial link in RS-485 standard for the communication in computer systems and with other devices fulfilling Master function. An asynchronous communication character protocol MODBUS has been implemented on the serial link. The
transmission protocol describes ways of information exchange between
devices through the serial link.
6.1. Connection Way of the Serial Interface
The RS-485 standard allows to a direct communication of 32 devices
on a single serial link of 1200 m long (at baud rate 9600 b/s). For the
connection of a higher quantity of devices, it is necessary to apply additional intermediate-separating systems ( e.g. PD51 converter).
28
Fig. 13. Connection way of the RS-485 interface
The lead wire of the interface line is presented on the fig. 4. To obtain a
correct transmission, it is necessary to connect lines A and B in parallel
with their equivalents in other devices. The connection must be made
through a shielded wire. The wire shield must be connected to the protection terminal in the nearest possible neighbourhood of the meter
(connect the shield to a single point to the protection terminal).
The GND line serves to the additional protection of the interface line at
long connections. Then, one must connect GND signals of all devices
to the RS-485 bus.
To obtain the connection to the computer, a RS-485 interface card or
an appropriate converter is indispensable, e.g. PD51 or PD10.
The connection way of devices is shown on the fig. 13
The designation of transmission lines for the card in the PC computer
depends on the card producer.
29
6.2. Description of the MODBUS Protocol
Implementation.
The implemented protocol is in accordance with the PI-MBUS-300 Rev
G of Modicon Company specification.
Set of the serial link parameters of N30U meters in MODBUS protocol:
l meter address: 1...247,
l baud rate: 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400,
57600, 115200 bit/s,
l work mode: RTU with a frame in formats: 8N2,
8E1, 8O1, 8N1,
l maximal time to start
the response : 100 ms.
The parameter configuration of the serial link consists on the settlement
of the baud rate (bAUd parameter), device address (Addr parameter),
and the format of the information unit (Prot parameter).
Notice:
Each meter connected to the communication network must have:
l unique address, different from addresses of other devices connec-
ted to the network,
l identical baud rate and type of information unit.
6.3 Description of Applied Functions
Following functions of the MODBUS protocol have been implemented
in the N30U meter:
l 03 – Readout of n-registers.
l 04 – Readout of input n-registers.
l 06 – Write of a single register.
l 16 – Write of n-registers.
l 17 – Identification of the slave device.

7. SOFTWARE UPDATING
Note! After updating the software the manufacturer’s settings for the
transducer ought to be set, therefore it is advisable to store the meters
parameters before its updating using LPCon or eCon software.
After LPCon has been started, one ought to set serial port, baut rate,
mode and the transducer address in Options. Then choose the N30H
meter from the menu Devices and click the icon Read in order to read
all set parameters (necessary for their later restoration). After selecting
from the menu Updating the option Device software updating, the Lumel
Updater (LU) window opens – Fig. 13 b. Press Connect. The information
window Messages contains information on the updating process. At the
correctly opened port, the message Port opened displays.

a)
b)
The N30H meters (from the version 1.09) in version with RS-485 interface
come with the implemented function that allows for updating the software
from a PC with LPCon or eCon software. In order to update software the
RS-485 converter on USB, such as PD10 converter must be connected
to the computer.
42
Entering the updating mode in the meter is carried out remotely
by LU program (based on the settings in LPCon - adres, mode,
baud rate, port Com) or by switching on the meter power supply with
pressed key . Pulsating of the meter state diode AL1 in green signals readiness for updating, whereas the LU program displays
the message Device found and the name and version of the program
of the conneted device. One should press the button ... and indicate
the meter updating file. At the correctly opened file, the information
File opened displays. One should press Send button. After updating being successfully completed the meter switches to normal work,
whereas the information window displays Done and the duration time
of the updating. After the LU window closure, one should go
to the parameters group Restoring manufacturer’s settings, mark the option and press Apply button. Then press the icon Save in order to save
readout initially set parameters. Current software version may also be
checked by reading the meter welcome messages after switching on
the power supply.
Note! Switching the supply off during the software updating process may result
in permenent damage of the meter!
