ATTENTION

Faulty cross currents, incorrect measure-

ments, and even damage to the device and/or 

your system due to lack of galvanic isolation!

A lack of galvanic isolation of active external cur-

rent transformers (or other current sensors) on the 

multifunction channels from the supply voltage 

of the device can lead to faulty cross currents, 

incorrect measurements or even damage to your 

device and/or system.

 · Do 

not

 take the auxiliary voltage supply of 

active external current transformers (or other 

current sensors) on the multifunction channels 

from the supply voltage of the device! For each 

active current transformer, use galvanically 

isolated power supplies (secondary side).

 · Do 

not

 ground passive current transformers on 

the multifunction channels! Observe the usage 

information of the current transformer manu-

facturer.

Functional earth

INFORMATION

The functional earthing is a functional part and essential 

for the regular operation of the electrical system.

INFORMATION

For a PE/N measurement, connect measuring 

input A as the functional earth. Do not use a 

green-yellow wire for this, as the conductor has 

no protective function!

INFORMATION

Before you start with the DIN rail mounting and 

cabling of your UMG 801, make sure that the 

bus connector is mounted on the bottom of your 

UMG 801. Then connect up to 10 modules via bus 

connectors.

INFORMATION

settings can be found in the user manual.

INFORMATION

 · The multifunction channels are suitable for con-

necting residual current transformers with a nom-

inal current of up to 30 mA and have the "Current 

transformer connection test" function.

 · The residual current measurement monitors the 

residual currents via external current transformers 

and, if a threshold value is exceeded, can trigger 

a warning signal. The meter is not an independent 

protective device against electric shock!

interfaces (A and B) for communication in Ether-
net networks. There are 2 options to integrate the 
measurement device into Ethernet networks:

1. 

Measurement device integration in a network 
with additional switch function (switched 
mode).

 The measurement device is automatical-

ly assigned an IP address by a DHCP server in 
an IT network via Ethernet interface A, for exam-
ple. Ethernet interface B has a switch function 
via which further devices (hardware components) 
can be connected in series. The measurement 
device also allows the reverse use of the Ether-
net interfaces (e.g. "B" for the IP address from a 
network and "A" for further devices)!

2. 

Measurement device integration in 2 different 
networks (dedicated mode)

The Ethernet interfaces A and B of the mea-
surement device are each assigned different IP 
addresses by 2 different networks.

WARNING

Hazard due to disregard of warning notices and 

safety information!

Disregard of warning notices and safety informa-

tion on the device itself and in the usage informa-

tion for the device and its components can lead to 

injuries or even death!

Observe the safety information and warning notic-

es on the device itself and in the usage information 

associated with the devices and their components, 

such as:

 · Installation manual.

 · User manual.

 · Supplement Safety Information.

Communication via TCP/IP

Considering the Ethernet communication settings (step 10), 
the measurement device has 2 types of address assign-
ment for the Ethernet interfaces (TCP/IP) in the 

DHCP

 

mode:
1. 

Static (fixed IP address)

 

The user selects the IP address, netmask and gateway 
on the measurement device. Use this mode for simple 
networks with no DHCP server.

2. 

DHCP

 

At startup, the measurement device automatically 
receives an IP address, netmask and gateway from the 
DHCP server.

The default settings of the measurement device for Eth-
ernet interfaces A and B is DHCP!

ATTENTION

Faulty cross currents, incorrect measure-

ments, and even damage to the device and/or 

your system due to lack of galvanic isolation!

A lack of galvanic isolation of active external cur-

rent transformers (or other current sensors) on the 

multifunction channels from the supply voltage 

of the device can lead to faulty cross currents, 

incorrect measurements or even damage to your 

device and/or system.

 · Do 

not

 take the auxiliary voltage supply of 

active external current transformers (or other 

current sensors) on the multifunction channels 

from the supply voltage of the device! For each 

active current transformer, use galvanically 

isolated power supplies (secondary side).

 · Do 

not

 ground passive current transformers on 

the multifunction channels! Observe the usage 

information of the current transformer manu-

facturer.

interfaces (A and B) for communication in Ether-
net networks. There are 2 options to integrate the 
measurement device into Ethernet networks:

1. 

Measurement device integration in a network 
with additional switch function (switched 
mode).

 The measurement device is automatical-

ly assigned an IP address by a DHCP server in 
an IT network via Ethernet interface A, for exam-
ple. Ethernet interface B has a switch function 
via which further devices (hardware components) 
can be connected in series. The measurement 
device also allows the reverse use of the Ether-
net interfaces (e.g. "B" for the IP address from a 
network and "A" for further devices)!

2. 

Measurement device integration in 2 different 
networks (dedicated mode)

The Ethernet interfaces A and B of the mea-
surement device are each assigned different IP 
addresses by 2 different networks.

ATTENTION

Faulty cross currents, incorrect measure-

ments, and even damage to the device and/or 

your system due to lack of galvanic isolation!

A lack of galvanic isolation of active external cur-

rent transformers (or other current sensors) on the 

multifunction channels from the supply voltage 

of the device can lead to faulty cross currents, 

incorrect measurements or even damage to your 

device and/or system.

 · Do 

not

 take the auxiliary voltage supply of 

active external current transformers (or other 

current sensors) on the multifunction channels 

from the supply voltage of the device! For each 

active current transformer, use galvanically 

isolated power supplies (secondary side).

 · Do 

not

 ground passive current transformers on 

the multifunction channels! Observe the usage 

information of the current transformer manu-

facturer.

•  Double insulation to the inputs of the voltage and current 

measurement.

•  Functional insulation relative to each other, to the supply 

voltage, to the measuring inputs for residual current and tem-

perature, to the digital inputs/outputs and to the analog output.

The interfaces of the connected devices require double or 

reinforced insulation against mains voltages (according to IEC 

61010-1: 2010).

multifunction channels (RCM, Temp.)

The inputs of the multifunction channels have:

•  Double insulation to the inputs of the voltage and current 

measurement.

•  No insulation to each other or to the supply voltage. 

•  Functional isolation to the Ethernet, RS-485 interfaces, to the 

digital inputs/outputs and to the analog output.

External sensors and/or transformers require double insulation 

relative to system components with dangerous touch voltages 

(according to IEC61010-1:2010).

Potential isolation and electrical safety of the 

digital inputs and outputs (I/Os) and the analog output

The digital inputs and outputs as well as the analog output are 

equipped with:

•  Double insulation to the inputs of the voltage and current 

measurement.

•  Functional isolation relative to each other, to the supply 

voltage, to the Ethernet, RS-485 and multifunction channel

ATTENTION

Faulty cross currents, incorrect measure-

ments, and even damage to the device and/or 

your system due to lack of galvanic isolation!

A lack of galvanic isolation of active external cur-

rent transformers (or other current sensors) on the 

multifunction channels from the supply voltage 

of the device can lead to faulty cross currents, 

incorrect measurements or even damage to your 

device and/or system.

 · Do 

not

 take the auxiliary voltage supply of 

active external current transformers (or other 

current sensors) on the multifunction channels 

from the supply voltage of the device! For each 

active current transformer, use galvanically 

isolated power supplies (secondary side).

 · Do 

not

 ground passive current transformers on 

the multifunction channels! Observe the usage 

information of the current transformer manu-

facturer.

Functional earth

INFORMATION

The functional earthing is a functional part and essential 

for the regular operation of the electrical system.

INFORMATION

For a PE/N measurement, connect measuring 

input A as the functional earth. Do not use a 

green-yellow wire for this, as the conductor has 

no protective function!

INFORMATION

Before you start with the DIN rail mounting and 

cabling of your UMG 801, make sure that the 

bus connector is mounted on the bottom of your 

UMG 801. Then connect up to 10 modules via bus 

connectors.

INFORMATION

 · The multifunction channels are suitable for con-

necting residual current transformers with a nom-

inal current of up to 30 mA and have the "Current 

transformer connection test" function.

 · The residual current measurement monitors the 

residual currents via external current transformers 

and, if a threshold value is exceeded, can trigger 

a warning signal. The meter is not an independent 

protective device against electric shock!

Your measurement device has two Ethernet 
interfaces (A and B) for communication in Ether-
net networks. There are 2 options to integrate the 
measurement device into Ethernet networks:

1. 

Measurement device integration in a network 
with additional switch function (switched 
mode).

 The measurement device is automatical-

ly assigned an IP address by a DHCP server in 
an IT network via Ethernet interface A, for exam-
ple. Ethernet interface B has a switch function 
via which further devices (hardware components) 
can be connected in series. The measurement 
device also allows the reverse use of the Ether-
net interfaces (e.g. "B" for the IP address from a 
network and "A" for further devices)!

2. 

Measurement device integration in 2 different 
networks (dedicated mode)

The Ethernet interfaces A and B of the mea-
surement device are each assigned different IP 
addresses by 2 different networks.
