The meter is equipped with a front-panel mounted, high-visibility, liquid crystal display (LCD) capable of showing
the values held in all billing and other registers, as well as configuration and other information displays.
The meter configuration defines which displays are available to the user, the resolution of those displays and the
order in which parameters appear. The configuration for any individual meter will initially be defined during
manufacture according to the utility requirements. However, it may subsequently be changed using the meter
support tool.
9.1. Displays and annunciators
The LCD comprises three main alphanumeric character displays, these represent:
Value
Unit
OBIS Code
A range of annunciator icons are used to identify the current meter display mode and provide indication of
various conditions.
Displays the direction and type of energy currently measured by the meter.
The arrows indicate:
Active and Reactive
Import and Export
If the incoming supply phase-sequence is incorrect (e.g. 1,3,2) these icons flash.
Displays the energy rate allocated to the current energy channel.
If there is more than one energy channel configured with the same quantity the
current rate of the first channel reached is displayed.
Each of the three icons represent a connected phase.
If a phase is missing, the associated icon is not lit.
If voltage sags or swells occur on a phase, the associated icon will blink.
See table below for range of units.
Displays the associated OBIS code (if applicable) for the energy quantity or
meter parameter currently displayed in the LCD.
Displays the currently selected energy quantity or parameter value. This display
is configurable for decimal point position and scale (see example below).
See annunciator table below.
