3.0 Network Connections
The Meter Hub allows multiple Morningstar devices to communi-
cate on a MeterBus network. Networked controllers can share data
and display net system information on a TriStar Meter 2. Table 1
below lists all Morningstar Devices that can be networked using
the Meter Hub. Table 1 is divided into two columns. The fi rst col-
umn lists devices that supply power to the MeterBus Network. All
devices listed in the second column require power
from
the Meter-
Bus Network to operate. It is important to understand the power
requirements of each device connected to a MeterBus network.
The Meter Hub electrically isolates devices that supply power to
the MeterBus, preventing grounding problems. Devices that re-
quire power from the network must be connected to devices that
supply power.
