5.7 M-bus Interface for Consumption Data Capture
The M-bus (meter bus) is a fieldbus for the capture of e.g. gas, water or power consumption data. The data are
transmitted serially from the connected meters (slaves / field devices) to an M-bus gateway (master) on a
reverse-polarity protected twin wire cable. The M-bus gateway itself is connected to the COM2 interface of the
system centre:
Daily consumption values are recorded for each M-bus meter in the system at the factory. The daily
consumption values can be displayed in the menu 6-1. The option "Performance Calculation" must be set in the
menu 4-1-6 for the display of a load profile (consumed capacity in the last 15 minutes). The load profile can
then be displayed in menu 6-2.
Configuration of the measuring points
New measuring points connected to the M-bus are found using a scan process and included in the system. The
scan process is started in menu 4-1-6 using the following button:
If new measuring points have been found by the scan process, these are then displayed in the list and can be
configured
