FIGURE 4–19: Setpoints Page 2 – System Setup / Pulse Input
• PULSE INPUT UNITS: This message allows the user to input a user defined 10 
character alphanumeric unit for the pulse inputs (i.e. kWh). The unit will be used by all 
pulse inputs including the totalized value.
To enter the unit, perform the following steps:
1. Allow access to setpoints by enabling setpoint access.
2. Select the 
PULSE INPUT UNITS message under the subgroup 
S2 SYSTEM SETUP \ PULSE INPUT.
3. Use the   and   keys to change the blinking character 
over the cursor. A space is selected like a character.
4. Press the   key to store the character and advance the cursor to the 
next position. To skip over a character press the   key.
5. Continue entering characters and spaces until the desired message is 
displayed. If a character is entered incorrectly, press the   key 
repeatedly until the cursor returns to the position of the error, and re-enter the 
character.
• PULSE INPUT 1 VALUE: Enter a value in this setpoint that will be equivalent to 1 pulse 
input on the switch input assigned to PULSE INPUT 1 (i.e. 1 pulse = 100 kWh). The 
accumulated value is displayed in actual values under 
A1 METERING\PULSE INPUT 
COUNTERS\PULSE INPUT 1
.
• PULSE INPUT 2 VALUE: Enter a value in this setpoint that will be equivalent to 1 pulse 
input on the switch input assigned to PULSE INPUT 2 (i.e. 1 pulse = 100 kWh). The 
accumulated value is displayed in actual values under 
A1 METERING\PULSE INPUT 
COUNTERS\PULSE INPUT 2
.
• PULSE INPUT 3 VALUE: Enter a value in this setpoint that will be equivalent to 1 pulse 
input on the switch input assigned to PULSE INPUT 3 (i.e. 1 pulse = 100 kWh). The 
accumulated value is displayed in actual values under 
A1 METERING\PULSE INPUT 
COUNTERS\PULSE INPUT 3
.
• PULSE INPUT 4 VALUE: Enter a value in this setpoint that will be equivalent to 1 pulse 
input on the switch input assigned to PULSE INPUT 4 (i.e. 1 pulse = 100 kWh). The 
accumulated value is displayed in actual values under 
A1 METERING\PULSE INPUT 
COUNTERS\PULSE INPUT 4
.
• PULSE INPUT TOTAL: This setpoint allows the user to define which pulse inputs are to 
be added together. For example, if the selection is this setpoint is 1+2+3, the PULSE 
INPUT 1, PULSE INPUT 2 and PULSE INPUT 3 values shown in 
A1 METERING \ PULSE 
COUNTERS \ PULSE INPUT 1/2/3/4
 will be added together and displayed in 
A1:METERING \ PULSE INPUT COUNTERS \ PULSE IN 1+2+3.
