Configuring the Meter-Group Parent
This selection configures the meter channel as a group-parent. There is no physical
metering device directly associated with the channel. Instead, the function of the channel
is to summarize the results of other group-member channels that do have associated
physical metering devices and perform the actual measurement.
Note: The meter-group parent must be configured prior to the members of the group.
Note: If downloading multiple meter configurations to a module at once in the meter-group relationship, the
meter index of the meter-group parent must be less than the meter index of all the meter-group members of
the meter-group parent.
To configure the meter-group parent:

From the
Project
menu, select
