Caution Reporting
The meter also checks other conditions that are of concern but do not indicate a problem with
the meter hardware. The meter reports these as cautions. Individual cautions may be enabled
or disabled selectively. If a caution is enabled, it can be configured to be displayed and
optionally freeze the display.
Low battery, loss of program, and un-programmed cautions are used to remind the user of
actions that are required. Any meter with a low battery caution may lose time if the battery is
not replaced before the next power outage.
Other caution codes report unusual operation such as receiving energy from the load, leading
power factor, very high current flow, or low voltage.
Note:
When multiple cautions occur they are combined. For example, CA 040 400 indicates
leading quadergy and low potential.
