MOUNTING

The product is mounted on a DIN-rail. The DIN-lock (3) on the bottom is 
used to mount and demount the unit from the DIN-rail. To fully comply 
with safety regulations, a DIN-rail enclosure must cover the terminals.

POWER SUPPLY

The installation should be performed by a qualified electrician or an 
installer with the required knowledge. The power supply must be 
protected with a 10 A circuit breaker of characteristic C or slow blow 
fuse. The power needs to be connected by a clearly marked and easily 
accessible switch to make sure the device can be switched off during 
service work. The switch must comply with IEC 60947-1 and 60947-3. 
The main supply is connected to screw terminal (5) and (6). Main supply 
voltage should be in the range of 100-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz.

M-BUS 2-WIRE BUS

M-Bus is a multi-drop 2-wire bus with no polarity. Use a cable of area 
0.25-1.5 mm

2

, e.g. a standard telephone cable (EKKX 2x2x0.5) to 

connect the wiring to the M-Bus connector (2).  If a stranded cable is 
used, a solid wire connection cable might be needed. Do not exceed the 
maximum cable length of 1000 m.

All equipment connected to the M-Bus must have double or reinforced 
insulation from mains to prevent the risk of electric shock.

IR INTERFACE

The IR interface can be used with an ABB electricity meter or another 
CMeX module. Remove the IR shield (4) and mount the CMeX10/
CMeX11 on the left side of the other unit. Leave no space between the 
products. Do not remove the shield unless the IR interface is used.

TROUBLESHOOTING

All LEDs are permanently off 

There is a problem with the supply voltage. Please verify 100-240 VAC. If 
the problem persists, the product may be malfunctioning.

Red LED is permanently on 

This indicates an error on the M-Bus 2-wire bus. Please verify no short-
circuit of the bus. The voltage of the bus should be between 21 VDC and 
42 VDC.

Cannot read connected M-Bus slaves

 

Please verify M-Bus status:

• 

Voltage over M-Bus slave device should be between 21 VDC and 
42 VDC.

• 

All M-Bus slave devices must have unique secondary or primary 
M-Bus addresses depending on addressing mode.

• 

M-Bus slave device baud rates.

 TX LED is permanently on 

When CMeX10/CMeX11 is stacked with other CMeX10 Series modules 
and there is a short circuit on a product which is mounted on the left side 
of the issued product, the TX LED may be permanently on. Verify left 
side mounted products for no short circuit.

IMPORTANT

 

• 

CMeX10/CMeX11 handles up to 32/64 slaves. Overloading the bus 
will turn on the ERR LED and turn off the M-Bus.

• 

All connected M-Bus slave devices must use a unique primary or 
secondary M-Bus addresses depending on addressing mode.
