How to fit and setup the device
Page 35 from 66
a.
ILx - one whole half-period of measured current is displayed, the value for zero measured power
should be around 0-10 digits. For more information about this view, see chapter Setting up main
function.
b.
FB - logic 1 (about 4000 digits) will be displayed for active pulse or logic 0 (about 10 digits) for the
space between pulses from the meter.
OUTPUT SETTINGS TAB
On this tab you may set basic parameters for outputs and setup the CombiWATT mode for outputs.
Station – specifies the wireless station.
Available only at WLS outputs that can be activated after
inserting the SC-Gateway to the controller
Device index –
specifies the output on the wireless station. Available only at WLS outputs that can be
activated after inserting the SC-Gateway to the controller.
Function - used to set the functionality of the corresponding output:
a.
Relay- the output will operate in On/Off mode (as a relay).
b.
Proportional - (only for SSR outputs or supported WLS outputs) the output will operate in
proportional regulation mode, by modulating connected load's power according to the available
surplus energy.
This mode is only for controlling the output of resistive (thermal) appliances and requires the
connection of external power semiconductor relays (SSRs)! This mode can further increase the
flicker (fast changes in mains voltage or fast flashing of light bulbs and fluorescent lamps). Before
connecting the appliance to this mode, read the flicker recommendations in the Frequently
Asked Questions section of the manufacturer's website.
c.
PWM – (only for SSR outputs or supported WLS outputs with activated SW package PWM mode
for outputs) the output will operate in proportional regulation mode, by modulating connected
load's power according to the available surplus energy, but the output will be PWM, see technical
specification for PWM parameters.
Caution: This mode is only suitable to control the output power of external devices (such as
some battery chargers and heat pumps) which are equipped with this kind of control input. This
mode cannot be used for external solid state relays!
Label – used to assign a label for the relevant output. Label may contain a maximum of 10 characters
in ASCII encoding.
Priority – it is used to set priority for the relevant output. First priority is the highest, sixth priority is
the lowest (in case of SC-Gateway presence it is possible to configure up to 12 priorities). "Not used"
means that the output is not activated. Output with higher priority will switch on "sooner" and will
switch off "later" (see the chapter "Setting up main function"). If you are using the "Sum of all phases"
control mode, you cannot select the same priority for two or more outputs (except for the "not used"
status). In the "Each phase independently" control mode this settings must be applied to each phase.
From the first (the highest) priority all the way down to the lowest priority. No gaps are allowed in the
priority settings, that is, you cannot set only the 1st priority and the 3rd priority, without setting the
2nd priority as well. WATTconfig inspects priority and phase settings before writing them into the
controller.
