Front
The front panel has three rows of four digits/characters each, with auto scaling
Kilo (K), Mega (M), and minus (-) indications. The K and M indicators are lit
together to show Giga readings. The load bar graph to the right of the display
gives the indication of consumption in terms of the % ampere load with respect to
the full scale (FS) selected. Four smart keys make navigating through parameters
very quick and intuitive for viewing data and configuring the meter.
Rear
The voltage and current terminal and RS-485 communication port are located on
the back of the meter.
Front panel
The front panel contains the following indicators and controls:
• Eight-segment LED display: Three rows of alphanumeric displays, four
digits each, display three RMS parameters simultaneously. The displayed
readings update every second.
• Analog load bar: Unique indication of % load with respect to the full scale
(FS).
• Indicators: Each row displays Kilo, Mega (Kilo + Mega = Giga) indicators,
and a negative (-) indicator.
• Keys: Four smart keys to scroll through the display pages.

Protective cover
The voltage and current terminal covers help prevent tampering with the meter’s
voltage and current measurement inputs.
The terminal covers enclose the terminals, the conductor fixing screws and a
length of the external conductors and their insulation. Ensure you use a device
(screwdriver recommended) to push the cover upwards till you hear a click to
make the cover stand. These covers are included for meter models where
sealable voltage and current covers are required to protect against tampering of
current and voltage input signals. Refer to your meter's installation sheet or the
instructions that came with your terminal covers for instructions on installing the
terminal covers.

Meter wiring
For wiring instructions and safety precautions, see the meter installation sheet that
was shipped with your meter, or download a copy at www.se.com.
Serial communications
The meter supports serial communication through the RS-485 port.
In an RS-485 network, there is one master device, typically an Ethernet to RS-485
gateway. It provides the means for RS-485 communications with multiple slave
devices (for example, meters). For applications that require only one dedicated
computer to communicate with the slave devices, an RS-232 to RS-485 converter
can be used as the master device. In master device, recommended response
time-out setting should be minimum 1 second.
RS-485 configuration
Before connecting your device to the RS-485 bus, use the meter’s display, or ION
Setup to configure your meter’s default RS-485 settings.
QGH1315603-04 17

Serial protocols
Your meter supports the serial communication protocol on its RS-485 port.
• Modbus RTU
RS-485 wiring
Connect the devices on the RS-485 bus in a point-to-point configuration, with the
(+) and (-) terminals from one device connected to the corresponding (+) and (-)
terminals on the next device.
RS-485 cable
Use a shielded 2 wire or 1 twisted pair RS-485 cable to wire the devices. Use
either shielded 2 wire or 1 twisted pair to connect the (+) and (-) terminals.
The total distance for devices connected on an RS-485 bus should not exceed
900 m (2953 ft).
NOTE: You can connect a maximum of 32 devices to a single RS-485 bus.

EasyLogic™ DM6000H / DM6200H series Verifying accuracy
Verifying accuracy
Overview of meter accuracy
All meters are tested and verified at the factory in accordance with International
Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) and Institute of Electrical and Electronics
Engineers (IEEE) standards.
Your meter typically does not require re-calibration. However, in some installations
a final accuracy verification of the meters is required.
DANGER
HAZARD OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, EXPLOSION, OR ARC FLASH
Verify the device’s power source meets the specifications for your device’s
power supply.
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
Environment
The meter should be tested at the same temperature as the testing equipment.
The ideal temperature is about 23 ºC (73 ºF). Make sure the meter is warmed up
sufficiently before testing.
A warm-up time of 30 minutes is recommended before beginning accuracy
verification testing. At the factory, the meters are warmed up to their typical
operating temperature before calibration to help ensure that the meters will reach
their optimal accuracy at operating temperature.
Most high precision electronic equipment requires a warm up time before it
reaches its specified performance levels. Energy meter standards allow the
manufacturers to specify meter accuracy derating due to ambient temperature
changes and self-heating.
Your meter complies with and meets the requirements of these energy metering
standards.
For a list of accuracy standards that your meter complies to, contact your local
Schneider Electric representative or download the meter brochure from
www.se.com.
Reference device
To help ensure the accuracy of the test, it is recommended that you use a
reference device with a specified accuracy that is 6 to 10 times more accurate
than the meter under test. Before you start testing, the reference device should be
warmed up as recommended by its manufacturer.
NOTE: Verify the accuracy and precision of all measurement equipment used
in accuracy testing (for example, voltmeters, ammeters, power factor meters).

• Apply appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and follow safe
electrical work practices. See NFPA 70E, CSA Z462 or other local
standards.
• Turn off all power supplying this device and the equipment in which it is
installed before working on or in the equipment.
• Always use a properly rated voltage sensing device to confirm that all power
is off.
• Do not exceed the maximum ratings of this device.
• Verify the device’s power source meets the specifications for your device’s
power supply.
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
1. Turn off all power supplying this device and the equipment in which it is
installed before working on the device or equipment.
2. Use a properly rated voltage sensing device to confirm that all power is off.
3. Connect the test voltage and current source to the reference device. Ensure
all voltage inputs to the meter under test are connected in parallel and all
current inputs are connected in series.

4. Before performing the verification test, let the test equipment power up the
meter and apply voltage for at least 30 seconds. This helps stabilize the
internal circuitry of the meter.
5. Configure the meter’s parameters for verifying accuracy testing.
6. Perform accuracy verification on the test points. Run each test point for at
least 30 seconds to allow the test bench equipment to read an adequate
number of pulses. Allow 10 seconds of dwell time between test points.

Power factor EasyLogic™ DM6000H / DM6200H series
Power factor
The sampled measurements taken at the meter’s voltage and current inputs
provide data for calculating power factor.
In a balanced 3-phase alternating current (AC) power system source, the AC
voltage waveforms on the current-carrying conductors are equal but offset by one-
third of a period (a phase angle shift of 120 degrees between the three voltage
waveforms).
Current and voltage in phase (resistive) Current leads voltage (capacitive) Current lags voltage (inductive)
An ideal, purely resistive load has no reactive components, so its power factor is
one (PF = 1, or unity power factor). Inductive or capacitive loads introduce a
reactive power (Q) component to the circuit which causes the PF to become
closer to zero.
True PF
The meter supports true power factor values:
• True power factor includes harmonic content.

WARNING
UNINTENDED OPERATION
Do not use this device for critical control or protection of persons, animals,
property or equipment.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or
equipment damage.

EasyLogic™ DM6000H / DM6200H series Command interface
• If the meter shows a nonzero number, you own the semaphore. Semaphore is
provided once until it is released or has been inactive for approximately 4
minutes. Once you have the semaphore, subsequent reads of the semaphore
register will return zero until you release the semaphore or it times out.
To send a meter command using the protected command interface:
1. Read the semaphore register and record the meter response. This is your
semaphore.
2. Build the packet to be written to the command block.
3. Write the packet as a Modbus block write (enter the command number,
semaphore, and parameters at the same time).

Semaphore 5
Parameters 1
Status 2039

5. Write the semaphore back to the semaphore register to release it for another
master to use.
