4.2 Creating a New Site for your Meter
PAS keeps all communication and configuration data for your meter in a configuration database called a
site database. During configuration, store all setup data to the site database so that PAS recognizes device
properties regardless of whether the meter is online or offline.
To communicate with the meters, create a separate site database for each device.
To create a new database for your meter:
1. Select Configuration from the Tools menu.
Figure 4-1: Configuration Dialog Box – Instrument Setup Tab
2. Click the Sites button on the right-hand-side.
3. From the Look in box, select the directory where a new database will be stored. By default, it is
the Sites directory.
4. Type a site name for your device in the File name box, click New, and then click OK.
5. On the Instrument Setup tab, select PM130 PLUS in the Model box. PAS automatically selects
the appropriate instrument options for your meter.
6. Select a correct CT secondary current (5A or 1A) for your meter.
7. If you wish to add any comments for your meter, type the comments in the Comment box.
