Digital outputs
Digital output applications
Digital outputs are typically used in switching applications, for example, to provide on/
off control signals for switching capacitor banks, generators, and other external
devices and equipment.
The digital output can also be used in demand synchronization applications, where the
meter provides pulse signals to the input of another meter to control its demand period.
The digital output can also be used in energy pulsing applications, where a receiving
device determines energy usage by counting the kWh pulses coming from the meter’s
digital output port.
