Installation Instruction Radio Pulse Adapter Supercom 541
General
The battery operated radio pulse adapter Supercom 541 is available with one or two pulse inputs. This robust device is ideally suited for the
operation of measuring equipment for all types of energy supply and can be read off by means of the integrated, bidirectional radio link using mobile
data acquisition. Seals may only be removed by authorised personnel. The national and local regulations as well as the manufacturer's specification
must be observed!
Installing the radio pulse adapter Supercom 541
The radio pulse adapter Supercom 541 is designed for wall or DIN-rail mounting
There must be a space of at least 30 cm between two radio transmitters
Radiated heat and electrical interference fields close to the integrator must be avoided
The radio pulse adapter must always be used according to its technical data. The permissible ambient temperature is 5…55°C
Electrical connection (mains devices)
This radio pulse adapter left the factory in perfect technical and safety conditions. To maintain this status and to guarantee safe operation, the user
must observe the instructions given in this document.
Operating life
The radio pulse adapter is equipped with a long-life lithium battery, the operating life of which is reduced if more than 52 readings times are taken in
a year.
Real time and monthly values
The radio pulse adapter Supercom 541 has its own internal clock, which, at the end of each month, backs up the values from every registers. With
the help of the radio modem Supercom 636, the values of the last 15 months can be read off. The date and time can be parameterised with the Tool
916 and the radio modem Supercom 636.
Cable connections
To connect inputs (type IP54) loosen the bottom part of the cover.
Connections must be made according to the diagram on the back of the cover.
Metering inputs
The metering inputs are used to record pulses which emanate from metering contacts or outputs. The pulses from individual inputs are accumulated in a
specific register, the value of which can be read off with the help of the radio modem Supercom 636. The inputs can be configured in such a way that
they can count up to 20 pulses a second (20 Hz). The maximum accumulation capacity is 99'999'999 pulses.
The following types of "user information" for metering inputs can be stored in the memory of the radio module:
Meter type (medium)
Unit and value of pulses
Identification of measuring point
Output value of meter
Radio read out
The radio pulse adapter Supercom 541 is identified by an 8-digits serial number, which is also used as radio communications address.
The information can be read off from Monday to Sunday, between 6.00 and 20.00 hours.
Initial operation
Put into service the radio pulse adapter with the help of the radio modem Supercom 636
Install and connect the radio module
Check the configuration
Check the radio link
Store all the parameters defined in the software Tool 916 into the radio module.
Generate or simulate pulses at the metering inputs and take a reading to check the accumulation in the registers.
Make a reading from the device that’s connected at the communications port.
Security seals
Seals can vary from country to country, therefore local regulations must be observed.
User seals must be fitted to the thermal energy meter, screw fittings and temperature sensors to prevent unauthorised modification or manipulation.
Seals may only be removed by authorised personnel. Otherwise the guarantee is no longer valid.
Servicing and repair work
Servicing and repair work may only be carried out at Sontex' premises or at authorized service points according to Sontex' service schedule.
