         Q-2 

 

Program the IQ 250/260T Using RS-485 

 

Q

  

 

Communication Wiring

 

The IQ 250/260T’s RS-485 port uses standard 2-wire, Half Duplex Architecture.   
Connect to Master and Slave devices as shown (+ to +, - to -). 

Q

  

Factory Initial Default Settings

 

When the IQ 250/260T is powered up, for 10 seconds you can connect to the meter 
using the Factory Default Settings (even if the Device Profile has been changed). After 
10 seconds the Device Profile reverts to the actual Device Profile in use.  This is one 
way you can always connect to the meter.  The Factory Initial Default Settings are:  

 

Device Address

: 1 

 

 

 

Baud Rate

: 9600 

Protocol

:  

Modbus  RTU 

Q

  

Connection Steps

 

1. 

Open IQ 250/260 Configuration Software.   

 

 

 

 

2. Click 

Connect

 on the Tool Bar.  The Connect screen opens.  Make sure your  

                settings match those shown on the right.   
3. Click 

Connect

.  The Device Status screen confirms the connection. 

4. Click 

OK

.  The main screen opens. 

Q

  

Configuration Steps

 

5. Click 

the 

Profile

 button on the Tool Bar.  The Device Profile screen 

                opens, showing the CT, PT Ratios

 

and

 

System Hookup (

Scaling

)  

                fields. 
6. Configure 

Scaling

 

settings

 

based on your application.  

7. Click 

Communications

 and select settings based on your application. 

Q

  

Scaling (CT, PT Ratios and System Wiring) 

  

CT 

Numerator, Denominator, Multiplier, CT Fullscale (Calculated automatically) 

  

PT

 Numerator, Denominator, Multiplier, PT Fullscale (Calculated automatically) 

  

System Wiring

: Use pull-down menu to select. 

  

Number of Phases

: One, Two or Three 

  

NOTE:

   Voltage Full Scale = PT Numerator x PT Multiplier 

 

Current Full Scale = CT Numerator x CT Multiplier 

  

IMPORTANT

!  Specify Primary and Secondary Voltage in Full Scale (NOT 

  Ratios). 
  

Example CT Settings: 

  200/5 Amps: 

Set the Ct-n value for 200, Ct-S value for 1. 

  800/5 Amps: 

Set the Ct-n value for 800, Ct-S value for 1. 

  2,000/5 Amps: 

Set the Ct-n value for 2000, Ct-S value for 1. 

  10,000/5 Amps: 

Set the Ct-n value for 1000, Ct-S value for 10. 

Example PT Settings: 

  14,400/120 Volts:  Pt-n value is 1440, Pt-d value is 120, Pt-S value is 10. 
  138,000/69 Volts:  Pt-n value is 1380, Pt-d value is 69, Pt-S value is 100. 
  345,000/115 Volts: Pt-n value is 3450, Pt-d value is 115, Pt-S value is 100. 
  345,000/69 Volts  Pt-n value is 345, Pt-d value is 69, Pt-S value is 1000. 

Q

(RS-485): 

 

 

Address

 (1-247) 

 

Protocol

 (Modbus RTU, ASCII or DNP) 

 

Baud Rate

 (9600 to 57600) 

 

Response Delay

 (0-750 msec) 

Q

  

Update Device

 

8. 

When settings are complete, click the 

Update Device

 button to send a new profile to the IQ 250/260T.   

9. Click 

Exit

 or click other tabs to update additional screens. 

10. 

Use IQ 250/260 Configuration Software to communicate with the device and perform required  

 tasks. 

NOTE:  For further details and additional programming screens, see the IQ 250/260 Manual on the enclosed CD.
