Installation

Disconnect power prior to installation.

Reinstall any covers that are displaced during the installation before powering the unit.

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).

Observe correct CT orientation.

The meter can be mounted in two ways: on standard 35 mm DIN rail or screw-mounted to the interior surface of the enclosure.

A. DIN Rail Mounting

1. Attach the 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 the diagram of the underside of the housing (below).

Clip ﬂush with outside edge

Snap onto

Insert clips from inside

Supported System Types

The meter has a number of dierent possible system wiring congurations (see Wiring Diagrams section). To congure the meter, set the System Type via the User Interface, LON variable cpSystemType. The System Type tells the meter which of its current and voltage inputs are valid, which are to be ignored, and whether 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 congured as a percentage of the Line-to-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 display as “----” on the User Interface or as QNAN in the LON variables.

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.

• Select a voltage rating sucient for the input voltage applied.

• Provide overcurrent protection and disconnecting means to protect the wiring. For AC installations, use Veris AH02,

AH03, AH04, or equivalent. For DC installations, provide external circuit protection. Suggested: 0.5 A, time delay fuses.

• The earth connection (G) is required for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and is not a protective earth ground.

The maximum load current is 100 mA at 25°C. Derate 0.56 mA per °C above 25°C.

* While the relay used for the Phase Loss contact is normally closed (contacts are closed when the meter is not powered), closure indicates the presence of an alarm; either loss of phase, when the meter is powered, or loss of power when the meter is not. The contacts are open when the meter is powered and no phase loss alarm conditions are present.

** The over-current protective device must be rated for the short circuit current at the connection point.

All pulse inputs/outputs and communication circuits are only intended to be connected to non-hazardous circuits (SELV or Class 2). Do not connect to hazardous voltages.

For example, with the system type set to 40 (3L+N) and the System voltage set to 480V L-L, the L-N voltage for each phase is 277V. When this threshold is set to 10%, if any phase drops to less than 10% of 277V (less than 27.7V), or if any L-L voltage drops to less than 10% of 480V (less than 48V), the corresponding phase loss alarm activates. IMBAL - Phase Loss Imbalance: Phase Loss Imbalance Threshold in percent is the fractional difference in Line to Line voltages above which Phase Loss Alarm is on. For a 3-phase Y(3+N) system (type 40), both Line to Neutral and Line to Line voltages are tested. In a 3-phase delta system (type 31), only the Line to Line voltages are examined. In a single split-phase (2+N) system (type 12), only the Line to Neutral voltages are compared. 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-to-comms.

Resources Available for Downloading

Using the LNS Plugin

The following resources are available at the Veris website, www.veris.com under Design Resources -> Protocol Info -> LonWorks.

Plugin

The E50 LNS plugin oers the simplest method to congure the E50FxA meter. The plugin displays all of the conguration options and installs the Veris Resource File Set and device template. The LNS Network Operating System and a plugin Director (to launch the plugin, such as LonMaker) are both required to run the plugin.

Device Interface Files

The E50 device interface les (.XIF, .XFB in binar y form) are required to properly commission a device. Creating a device template from these les allows the network to correctly name the network variables and conguration properties. Download and save the device interface les to C:\LonWorks\import\Veris Industries\. Alternatively, the E50 LNS Plugin installs these les automatically (no need to download the les separately).

Resource File Set

All of the meter’s network variables (except nvoLoggedData) use standard network variable types (SNVTs). However, the conguration proper ties to set the meter installation details (CT size, system type, system voltage, etc.) are user-dened conguration proper ties (UCPTs). The Veris website includes a manufacturer-scoped resource le set to recognize these types, but they are not necessarily required. Commissioning and conguring options are explained below, and the need for the resource les depends on the situation and user preference. The E50 LNS Plugin automatically installs the Veris Resource File Set (no need to download these les separately). Note: If using resource les, install them before importing the device template into a network.

The following instructions are written for the Veris E50 LNS Plugin using LonMaker. If using a dierent integration tool, replace the specic steps that have actions in LonMaker with equivalent procedures for the integration tool in use (see documentation for the tool).

Installation Instructions

1. Download the “Veris E50 LNS Plugin Vx.x Installer.zip le from the Veris website, found under Design Resources->Protocol Info->LonWorks.

2. Extract all les from the zip.

3. Double click the setup.exe le to start the installer. If installing on Windows 7 or Windows Vista, when the User Access Control dialog appears, click “Allow” to give the installer administrative privileges.

4. Install the Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 (or above) at this point. Follow the prompts, and then the plugin installer will begin.

5. Click Next and select a folder to install the plugin to. It is recommended to keep the default of LonWorks\apps\Veris Industries\ Veris E50 LNS Plugin\ based on guidelines from Echelon documentation, but changing the installation path is allowed.

6. Click Next twice to conrm the installation, then click close when installation is complete.

Installation Details

The Veris E50 LNS Plugin Installer both installs and registers the plugin, while also copying support les to default locations. Device resource les are placed in the “[local drive]\LonWorks\Types\User\Veris Industries\E50Meters\” folder. These resource les are automatically added to the LNS Resource File Catalog. Any existing resource les for the E50 meters are removed from the catalog and the computer. The device template (VerisE50.XIF and VerisE50.XFB) and application image (VerisE50.APB and VerisE50.NXE) les are copied to the “[local drive]\LonWorks\import\Veris Industries\” folder. When the plugin is registered with a network for the rst time, if the E50 device template has not already been imported, the plugin automatically adds it to the network under the template name “VerisE50.”

Using the LNS Plugin (cont.)

Registration Instructions

The plugin installer registered the plugin globally, but as a system level plugin, it must be registered separately for each network that requires it. Registration can be accomplished either while opening a network or after a network is opened. Instructions here are for the latter method.

1. Open the LonMaker network where the plugin is to be registered.

2. Select the LonMaker menu (on the toolbar in Visio 2003; under the Add-ins toolbar in Visio 2010). From the drop-down list, select “Plugins,” and then “Register Plugins…”

3. Select the “Veris E50 Device Plug-in” entry from the plugin list and press the “Register” button.

4. Press the “Okay” button.

Device Creation Instructions

Creating an E50 device in LonMaker is no dierent than creating any other device.

1. Drag a “Device” from the LonMaker Basic Shapes stencil or other stencil to the drawing. This opens the new device wizard.

2. Click the “Commission device” checkbox unless the network is being created ONet (“Engineered” mode), or if there is any other reason to delay commissioning.

3. From the Device Template section, choose the “VerisE50” template from the drop-down list (the plugin added the template to the network when registering).

4. Finish customizing using the wizard prompts and press “Finish”.

5. If commissioning was selected, press the service pin on the meter.

Device Conﬁguration Instructions

The plugin has two tabs useful for conguring the device. The “Meter Setup” tab includes details related to the installation (CT size, system type, system voltage, etc.), and other settings related to the demand interval and alarm conguration. The second tab for conguration of the device is the “Propagation Settings” tab, which includes conguration properties that control propagation (heartbeat, throttle, etc.). Settings can be written to both the database and the device if the device is online (or soft oine), commissioned, and the LonMaker mode is OnNet. Otherwise the settings can only be written to the database. There is some behavior to be noted if changes are made while the device is soft oine. Please read the “Important Information When Conguring While Soft Oine” section below.

1. Right click on the E50 device and select “congure” from the context menu. This brings up the “Meter Setup” tab of the plugin.

2. To get the current setting from the meter or the database, press the “GET PRESENT SETTINGS” button. If the conguration properties on the device do not match the database, a prompt appears to choose which values to load.

3. Make the necessary changes to the Installation Details and Other Settings. Note that the Demand Subinterval Length is also the logging interval for E50F5 meters, so it can be congured at this point (see the “Conguring the Data Log” section below for a description of the meter’s data logging capabilities).

4. Press “APPLY SETTINGS.” If the device is online (or soft oine), commissioned, and the LonMaker mode is OnNet, the conguration proper ty settings are applied to both the network database and the device. If, however, the above conditions are not met, the conguration property set tings are only written to the database. A dialog box appears when the write is nished, stating where the values were written to. If values were not written to the device (database only), the device must be resynchronized to the database at a later time. See the “Conguration Property Resynchronization” section below.

5. Switch to the “Propagation Settings” tab of the plugin (tab control is at the top of the plugin).

6. To get the current setting from the meter or the database, press the “GET PRESENT SETTINGS” button. If the conguration properties on the device do not match the database, a prompt will appear to choose which values to load.

7. Make the necessary changes to the propagation settings and press “APPLY SETTINGS.” If the device is online (or soft oine), commissioned, and the LonMaker mode is OnNet, the conguration property settings are applied to both the network database and the device. If, however, the above conditions are not met, the conguration property settings are written to the database only. A dialog box appears when the write is nished, stating where the values were written to. If values were not written to the device (database only), the device must be resynchronized to the database at a later time. See the “Conguration Property Resynchronization” section below.

Saving/Loading Conﬁguration Templates

Values on the “Meter Setup” and “Propagation Settings” tabs can be saved separately to template (.xml) les for easy recovery at a later time or for use with another E50 device. When either of these tabs is selected, a “Template” menu appears highlighted in yellow on the menu bar.

Save to Template (.xml) File

1. Select “Template”->”Save To Template”. If all the values are lled in and are acceptable values for an E50 (range checking is done here), a “Save As” le window appears.

2. Navigate to the desired folder and create a name in the “File Name” eld (or select an existing .xml le).

3. Press the “Save” button.

Load From Template (.xml) File

1. Select “Template”->“Load From Template”.

2. Navigate to the folder where the .xml le exists and selec t the le.

3. Press the “Open” button.

Formatting Power Correctly

LonMark Resource Files before version 13.04 set the default format in the U.S. for network variables of the type SNVT_power_f as units of Btu/hr. This format ting results in power values being reported about 3.4 times higher than they actually are in Watts. The plugin always displays correc t values in Watts, however, since it uses raw values, not formatted values.

There are a few ways to resolve this formatting issue, described below. Upgrading the LonMark Resource Files is the least tedious method, but may require checking the rest of the network to verify that no issues have been introduced by the other changes LonMark has made to the resource les.

Update the LonMark Resource Files

1. Uninstall the current LonMark Resource Files by opening the “Add or Remove Programs” dialog in Windows, selecting the “LonMark Resource Files 13.xx” and pressing “Remove.”

2. In a web browser, navigate to www.LonMark.org, “Technical Resources” (from the menu bar at top) ->”Resource Files”->”Start SNVT/SCPT Download…”

3. Follow the prompts to complete the resource le installation.

4. Power values are now formatted in Watts.

Manually Update the Power Network Variables

1. In LonMaker, right click on the E50 device and select “Plugins”-> “Echelon AppDevice Browse”.

2. Right click on the row for a power network variable and select “Change Format” from the context menu (can alternatively press Ctrl+A when the line is selected).

3. From the “Select Network Variable Format” dialog, select SNVT_power_f#SI (not #US) and press OK.

4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for each power network variable.

5. If any of the power network variables are bound (as opposed to polled), repeat steps 2 and 3 for the input network variables of other devices the meter is bound to. The format of the input network variable on the other end determines the format that device receives, not the formatting of the E50 meter’s output network variable.

Important Information When Conﬁguring While Soft Oﬄine

When a device is commissioned but is soft oine (green crosshatch in LonMaker), application code does not execute. The device only processes network management commands. The device can be successfully congured sof t oine, though. The conguration property values are physically stored on the device, and processed and applied when the device is brought online. This does mean, though, that setup values on the screen of the device do not reec t new values applied using the plugin while soft oine until the meter is brought online.

Conﬁguration Property Resynchronization

If the device was congured using the plugin and values were saved to only the database for any reason (ONet, device not commissioned, etc.), the conguration proper ties in the database must be downloaded to the device at some point. If the device has not yet been commissioned, this synchronization can be performed while commissioning the device. Otherwise follow the second procedure.

Synchronization While Commissioning

1. Right-click on the device in LonMaker and select “Commissioning”-> “Commission…” from the context menu.

2. For the “Source of CP Values”, select “LNS database.” Press “Finish” to complete commissioning.

Synchronization While Device is Commissioned and Online

1. Right-click on the device in LonMaker, and select “Commissioning”-> “Resync CPs…” from the context menu.

2. Select “Download current values to device” as the operation.

3. Press the “OK” button.

Viewing Meter Values

If the device is online and the network is attached, present values from the meter such as power and energy can be viewed using the plugin by right-clicking on the device and selecting “Browse…” from the context menu. The plugin loads with the “Network Variables” tab selected. Four buttons on the lef t alternate among viewing the instantaneous, demand, energy, and status pages. Polling defaults to every 5 seconds, but only the values shown on the screen at any one time are polled (no polling while on the “METER SETUP” and “PROPAGATION SETTING” tabs), and with a small delay between values to keep the network load to a maximum of about 10 packets per second during each poll. The polling rate can also be changed using the drop-down list on the left.

Restarting Polling

Polling status is shown in the bottom right corner of the plugin. Polling is disabled in the following cases:

• LonMaker Management Mode is ONet.

• Device is not commissioned.

• Device is not Online.

• Device is not responsive or fails tests.

• An exception occurs while polling device values.

After resolving the issue, restart polling in one of two ways:

1. Close the plugin and reopen it. The condition of the device and network are tested, and polling begins if everything is normal.

2. From the menu bar, select File ->”Attempt Polling Restart.” The condition of the device and network are retested, and polling begins if everything is normal.

Setting the Meter Time

The real time clock on an E50 meter does not have battery backup. The time resets to the millennium (January 1st, 2000) whenever the meter is power cycled, but it can automatically synchronize to a network time source if set up properly. Otherwise the meter time can easily be manually set to a computer’s time or to a custom time using the plugin (while the device is commissioned and online).

Setting up Automatic Syncronization to Network Time Source

1. Locate a network time source with an output network variable of type SNVT_time_stamp.

2. If a NodeObject functional block for the meter has not already been created, drag the “Functional Block” shape from the LonMaker Basic Shapes stencil onto the drawing. If it already exists, skip to step 5.

3. From the popup dialog, select the meter from the Device section, and in the Functional Block section choose “NodeObject ” from the Name drop-down list.

4. Press Finish to create the functional block.

5. If the functional block does not have the input network variable nviTimeSet showing, drag the “Input Network Variable” shape onto the NodeObject functional block.

6. In the popup dialog, selec t “nviTimeSet” and press “OK.”

7. Create a binding between the output network variable of the time source to nviTimeSet on the meter by dragging the “Connector” shape onto the drawing and connect it bet ween the two network variables.

Manually Setting the Meter Time Using the Plugin

1. If the plugin is not open, right-click on it and select “Browse…” from the context menu. If it is already open, click on the “Network Variables” tab.

2. Press the “STATUS” button on the left.

3. To set the meter time from the computer’s time, press the “SYNC TO PC TIME” button.

4. To set the meter time to a custom time, modify the custom time (eld below the current time) and press the “SET TO CUSTOM [TIME]” button.

Conﬁguring the Data Log (E50F5A only)

The E50F5A meter includes a data logging feature that holds 5760 time stamped records for 3 meter parameters. The logging interval is xed to the demand subinterval length, which can be anywhere between 10 seconds and 9 hours. The default logging interval is 15 minutes (900 seconds), which allows for 60 days of data stored in the log. This data can be downloaded to a CSV le on a computer using the plugin.

The log can be set up in either Single Shot Mode or Continuous Mode (default is Continuous Mode). In Single Shot Mode, the meter records data until the buer is full. When the buer is full, the meter stops recording new readings and retains the 5760 records it has already saved. In Continuous Mode, the meter continues to record data as long as it is operating. The log buer can only hold 5760 records at a time, however, so once the meter reaches 5760 records the oldest is deleted each time a new record is saved. Once full, therefore, the buer will always hold the most recent 5760 records.

Setting up the log

1. If the plugin is not open, right-click on it and select “Plugins”-> “Veris E50 Download Log” from the context menu. If it is already open, click on the “Data Logging” tab.

2. If the device is not online, has not been commissioned, or the LonMaker Management Mode is ONet, the “Data Logging” tab will not be visible. To show this tab, click the “Help” menu and select Advanced->”Force Toggle Logging Visible.”

3. Expand the “LOG SETUP” section using the arrows on the right side of the header.

4. To get the current setting from the meter or the database, press the “GET PRESENT SETTINGS” button. If the conguration properties on the device do not match the database, a prompt appears to choose which values to load. The database may contain zeros for the points to log when a device is rst created, since the E50 device template does not contain defaults for these conguration properties (to prevent defaults from the device template conicting with factory defaults stored on the device). When rst conguring logging, if the device is online (or soft oine), choose to get values from the device.

5. Select the three points to log (drop-down lists give log point indices corresponding to the Conguration Property table of this guide, the names of the network variables the data points correspond to, and descriptions of each).

6. Choose to enable or disable the log, and which logging mode to use (continuous or single shot).

7. When nished making changes, press the “APPLY SETTINGS” button. If the device is online (or soft oine), commissioned, and the LonMaker mode is OnNet, the conguration property settings are applied to both the network database and the device. If, however, the above conditions are not met, the conguration property set tings are written to the database only. A dialog box appears when the write is nished, stating where the values were written to. If values were not written to the device (database only), the device must be resynchronized to the database at a later time. See the “Conguration Property Resynchronization” section below.

8. If the logging interval (Demand Subinterval Length) was not set to the right value while conguring the meter using the “METER SETUP” tab (“Device Conguration Instructions” section above), perform the following steps. Otherwise the log has been successfully congured.

9. Switch to the “METER SETUP” tab of the log.

10. Press the “GET PRESENT SETTINGS” button to get all of the current settings.

11. Under the “OTHER SETTINGS” section, change the demand subinterval length to the desired logging interval (keeping in mind that demand is also aected).

Downloading the Data Log (E50F5A only)

Records from an E50F5A’s log can be downloaded to a new CSV le or appended to an existing log le. Appending to an existing le saves time by just adding the records that have been created since the le was last updated. If appending to an existing le, an unaltered CSV le from a previous download must be used, and the headers must match the points that the meter is currently logging.

Download to a New Log File

1. Verify the meter is commissioned and online, and the LonMaker Management Mode is OnNet.

2. If the plugin is not open, right-click on it and select “Plugins”-> “Veris E50 Download Log” from the context menu. If it is already open, click on the “Data Logging” tab.

3. On the left side of the “DOWNLOAD LOG” section, select “Create A New Log File.”

4. Press the “Choose Path” button, choose a destination folder, and press “OK.”

5. Enter a name for the log le in the “File Name” text box. If a unique le name is desired, check the “Append Date/Time to File Name” checkbox.

6. To get all the records in the log, select the “Entire Log” option. To get only a specic amount of the newest records, select the “Fixed Amount of latest entries” option and enter the desired amount in the textbox. The log can hold 5760 records, but both options stop downloading when they reach unwritten records. For example, when 250 demand subintervals have passed since the log has been reset, 250 of the 5760 possible log records hold data. The remaining 5510 records are blank. Selecting “Entire Log” downloads the 250 records with data. Selecting “Fixed Amount of latest entries” and putting 100 in the textbox downloads 100 entries. Selecting “Fixed Amount of latest entries” and putting 400 in the textbox only downloads 250 records, since the amount requested is limited to the amount of records in the log with data.

7. Press the “BEGIN DOWNLOAD” button to start downloading the log with the parameters set above.

Append All New Records to an Existing Log File

1. Verify the meter is commissioned and online, and the LonMaker Management Mode is OnNet.

2. If the plugin is not open, right-click on it and select “Plugins”-> “Veris E50 Download Log” from the context menu. If it is already open, click on the “Data Logging” tab.

3. On the right side of the “DOWNLOAD LOG” section, selec t “Append All New Records To An Existing Log File”.

4. Press the “Choose File” button, select the le to append to, and press “Open”.

5. Press the “BEGIN DOWNLOAD” button to start downloading the log with the parameters set above.

Log Download Network Bandwidth Control (E50F5A only)

To control the network bandwidth consumed by the downloading process, use cpLoggedData, congurable on the “PROPAGATION SETTINGS” tab. The default is a 0.1 second throttle, which amounts to a maximum of 20 packets per second (10 Acknowledged packets sent, 10 acknowledgments received). The full log download takes approximately 15 minutes at this speed. If the throttle is changed to 0.2 seconds, 10 packets are sent per second, but the download will take approximately 22 minutes. If 20 packets per second is not an issue for the network, using the default 0.1 second throttle is recommended. Note: avoid using the “Network Variable” tab and collapse the “LOG INFO” section of the “DATA LOGGING” tab while downloading the log if controlling bandwidth usage is a priority).

Conﬁguring and Commissioning Without the Plugin

This section covers working with an E50 device when the plugin cannot be used (LNS not used or no plugin director/launcher).It is not possible for this document to detail the full instruc tions for conguring and commissioning an E50 device using each and every network integration tool or controller. The purpose of this section is merely to provide guidelines and clarify the options available for conguration.

Using Resource Files

If manufacturer scoped resource les can be used, download the Veris E50 Resource File Set at www.veris.com, under Design Resources -> Protocol -> LonWorks. These les aid in conguration by enabling the conguration properties to be named and formatted correctly.

Creating the Device Template

The device interface (.XIF/.XFB) les must be used for the network variables to be correctly named. A device template created from the device itself will only have NV indices rather than NV names. Download the device interface les at www.veris.com, under Design Resources -> Protocol -> LonWorks. Once downloaded, extract the .XIF and .XFB les from the zip and create a device template from either of them.

Conﬁguring the Device

All of the user-dened conguration properties are implemented as conguration network variables so that they can be set as either conguration properties or as input network variables. This allows the E50 device to be congured by either a network integration tool (using either method) or by peer devices such as controllers (using the input network variables). The base types for all of the conguration properties are also either SNVT_count or SNVT_state, so they may have the correct names and formats without the resource les installed. If the names, types, and formats are not available, the conguration property table in this document has both the base SNVT type and the user dened conguration property type (UCPT) index that the device template references. These are given in the Conguration Property table as the name LonMaker reports, “UCP_Type_1” for user dened ty pe 1.

Formatting Power Correctly

LonMark Resource Files before version 13.04 default to formatting SNVT_power_f network variables in units of Btu/hr in the U.S. This formatting results in power values being reported about 3.4 times higher than they actually are in Watts. Be sure that the formatting for power values is in Watts. If LNS is used, changing the format of these power network variables to SNVT_power_f#SI resolves the issue. If any other devices have input network variables bound to the E50’s power output network variables, the format ting of the input network variables on these devices must also be changed. Installing the latest LonMark Resource Files (if upgradable for the integration tool/ controller) also resolves the issue when using LNS. They can be found at www.LonMark.org under “Technical Resources”-> “Resource Files”.

Bit 1: Log Buer Read Collision 1 – Set to 1 if the meter

tried to save log data while the user was reading the log. On the rst collision, the meter holds the data until the next sub-interval and then writes the saved data to the log as well as the data for that interval. This bit is cleared to 0 on the rst demand interval with no collision.

Bit 2: Log Buer Read Collision 2 – Set to 1 on the 2nd

At this point the meter ignores the read condition and does a double write, rst of the values saved from the previous cycle, and then the present values.
