Autometers Systems IC 970 Installation & Operating Manual Download Page 1

The IC 970 is the latest meter in the IC 900 series 
of I nformation Centres from Autometers Systems 
Ltd. With new advances in micro processors and 
new added features, the meters are user friendly, 
easy to install and simple to programme.

The IC 900 range of I nformation Centres are electronic meters and great care has been taken to 
ensure that they meet the stringent requirements of all the potential users and specifiers of the 
product, from the buyer who wants a competitively priced product, the installer who wants 
simple fitting with good connection terminals to the end user who wants a quick and easy means 
of obtaining information. The  IC 900 range of meters meets these varied demands.

The IC 970 meter has been designed to communicate with other systems by means of either pulse 
outputs standard on all IC 900 meters or via a separate plug in communication module which is 
sold with the meters or can be retro fitted at a later date.

All the IC 900 range of meters have been designed to communicate with Autometers Systems Ltd 
Horizon range of data collection units, this enabling complete measurement and data collection 
systems to be built up.

A new feature to the IC 970 is the protocol set up information which can be viewed on the display 
when a communication module has been installed. 

There are two optically isolated volt free relays outputs on the IC 970 and IC 990, one relay for 
kWh and the other for kVah. Both these relays are fully programmable to adjust the value of the 
pulse (4 settings) and the time of the contact closure. Both meters are factor y set to 1 imp/kWh 
and 1 imp/kVah. 

An optional communication module can be fitted to the IC 970 and IC 990 meters offering a wider 
range of information which can be transferred to a BMS system.
