4.2. Bus Output (Optional)
4.2.1. M-Bus (Meter-Bus)
The M-Bus (Meter Bus) is a field bus for recording consumption data. Transmission is carried out serially on
a reverse polarity protected two-wire line. The flow sensor as M-Bus slave requires a separate supply voltage.
No specific topology (line or star) is prescribed for the cabling. Normal telephone cable of type J-Y(St)Y
Nx2x0.8mm can be used. A maximum of 250 meters is permitted per segment (primary addressed).
Read-out of the current measurement/consumption data
The following measurement/consumption values are transmitted during a standard query:
• Standard volumetric flow (32 Bit Real)
• Temperature (32 Bit Real)
• Mass flow (32 Bit Real)
• Consumption meter status (32 Bit Real)
• Flow velocity (32 Bit Real)
• Standard volumetric flow (32 Bit Integer)
• Temperature (32 Bit Integer)
• Mass flow (32 Bit Integer)
• Consumption meter status (64 Bit Integer)
• Flow velocity (32 Bit Integer)
The table below shows the package structure of the measurement/consumption data sent by the EE77x
sensor:
