the Pulse input menu. If the energy is generated by a number of PV panels, the number of square
meters of your panels can be set as well. In this way the total amount of kWh per m

is calculated.
Because only one connection per S0 output can be made, the Meteon also as an output to connect this
to a second device, without blocking further use of the S0 port.
Physical connection
Terminal block / Inside Meteon
The S0 outputs (often called S0+, S0- or S+ and
S-) have to be connected to the Pulse input of
the Meteon. Both pulse in- and output are
optically isolated. The input can be tested by
connecting the + and – inputs to simulate an
input pulse. The picture on the left shows a
simplified schemeatic of the inside of the
Meteon.
The nominal Pulse in- and output current is 20
mA [max is 50 mA], and the opto-coupler
isolation is 5kV.
