Position as such so that there are not too many walls between the window/door sensor and so it is near to a mains powered device (ie a dimmer) or gateway.
Take care that there are no metal plates in the line of sight between the window/door sensor and the nearest mains powered device or gateway
The window/door sensor should be installed in that way, that the front of the sensor part is directed towards a nearby mains powered device or gateway.
The distance between the window/door sensor and the nearest mains powered device or gateway should be as short as possible when the window or door is closed.
Be aware, that the distance between the sensor part and magnet part could be up to 34mm to indicate "OPEN" depending on the material that the window/door sensor is installed on. It is recommended to perform some tests before you fix the final installation.

If you are experiencing flickering LED loads when dimming to low levels the 31LCDA has the potential to reduce and/ or remove the flickering. It is important to note that this device isn't guaranteed to remove flickering, it is designed to help with compatibility. If you don't achieve removal of flickering it is possible to stack a total of 3, 31LCDA's in parallel. If you are still experiencing issues once you have placed 3 in parallel your LED loads may just be incompatible and replacement of the LED loads may be necessary.

Some of the key features are:

• 450W maximum load.
• Potential removal of flickering.
• Indoor use only.
• Operating temperature 0°-65°C.
• 220-240V A.C. typical, 50Hz only.
• Dimensions 30mm (W) X 20mm (H) X 10mm (D).
• Flylead length approx. 95mm

Sometimes when you move the windows and panes around in Vijeo Designer, you may want to move them back to default. The easiest way to do so is with the following procedure:

Simply shutdown Vijeo Designer, open up REGEDIT and delete the following key:
-For Vijeo Designer v6.2 SP8 or older, delete:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Schneider Electric\Vijeo-Designer62

-For Vijeo Designer v6.2 SP9 or newer, delete:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Schneider Electric\Vijeo-Designer62B
 
After you delete that, restart Vijeo Designer.

 

Issue:
Acronym meaning

Product Line:
Metering Equipment

Resolution:
EUSERC is an acronym for electric utility service equipment requirements committee. Formed in 1983, the purpose of the organization is to promote uniform electric service requirements among the member utilities, publish existing utility service requirements for electric service equipment, and provide direction for development of future metering technology. There are approximately 80 utilities involved in EUSERC from 12 states. Not all EUSERC member utilities accept all metering devices that meet EUSERC specifications. So, although a device may meet EUSERC specifications, it may not be accepted for use by a specific utility company. Always check with the utility company for approval before using any metering device.

NOTE: NOT ALL OF THE SQUARE D METERING EQUIPMENT WILL MEET EUSERC, BECAUSE EUSERC HAS CERTAIN REQUIREMENTS, FOR EXAMPLE, THEY USE RING TYPE METERS AND NOT ALL METERS ARE RING TYPE. CHECK WITH THE LOCAL UTILITY COMPANY FOR APPROVAL BEFORE USING ANY METERING DEVICE.

Question:
How to upgrade the firmware of a PM8000 meter
 
Product String Reference:

1. Top Level > Product Category > Buildings & IT > EcoBuilding Transactional > Power Solutions > Optimum Intermediate
2. Top Level > PR_Product_OPS_Structure > Power and Energy Monitoring System > Integrated Power Quality Meters > PM8000 series

 
Objective:
The objective of this video is to provide guidance of how to upgrade the firmware of a PM8000.
 
Product Line:
PTSOL - POWER SOLUTIONS
 
Environment:
ION Setup
 
Resolution:
Firstly, we need to check what firmware version our PM8000 meter is. This is done via the meter itself. To do this:
1)      Press the “Home” button
2)      Scroll down until you reach the “Nameplate” menu option and press enter.
3)      The next screen will now display the meter details, including model, serial number and firmware version.
 
Now that we know that this meter requires a firmware upgrade, we need to know the IP address of the meter. This is integral to being able to set up a connection between a computer and the meter. The IP address of the PM8000 meter can be found in the Communications Setup Menu. To find this menu:
1)      Press the “Home” button
2)      Scroll down until you reach the “Setup Menu” option and press enter
3)      Now select the “Communications Setup”
4)      Take note of the IP address and Subnet mask which is 192.168.1.11 and 255.255.255.0 respectively.
Before we set up your computer to communicate with the meter, ensure that you have connected said computer with the PM8000 meter via an Ethernet cable. 
 
Ok, so up to this point, we know that the meter needs a firmware upgrade. We know the IP address of the meter, but for successful communication, we need to set up the IP address of your computer.
1)      To do this, open the “Network Sharing Centre” to change the adaptor settings currently set up.
2)      Right click on the Ethernet connection to the PM8000 meter and select properties.
3)      Select Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)
4)      Manually set up the IP address for your computer.
a.      Ensure that the IP address is on the same network as that of the meter you are communicating with, so the first three sections of the IP address are required to be the same as the meter (192.168.1). The last digits are up to you. For this instance, we will set it as 10 as it is easy to remember.
b.      We will set the subnet mask as 255.255.255.0
5)      You have now set up your computer to communicate with your meter. To confirm that we have set up the IP addresses appropriately, we can ping the IP address in the command prompt window
 
Before we are able to upgrade the firmware of your meter, please ensure that you have downloaded the latest version of the following files:
1)      The Template file with extension: .dcf and
2)      The Firmware file with extension: .upg
These files can be sourced from the Schneider Electric website.
The Firmware file allows you to upgrade your meter’s firmware to get new features.
The Template file allows to replace your meter’s existing template with an updated template with
new features.
Ensure that you can easily find these files on your computer.
 
Now that we have the Template and Firmware files saved onto our computer in an easy to locate place.
1)      Go to PowerLogic ION Setup application, selecting the “Ethernet” connection type. Input the IP address of the meter you are communicating with.
2)      Select Template in the “Setup Assistant window and go to the Firmware Upgrade tab. Take note of the firmware version of the FAC1 Template. In this instance, we can see that the Template file is not the latest and needs to be upgraded. Select the “Upgrade” button.
3)      You will now be prompted to upload the template file, extension .upg. Once the Template file is uploaded, a warning message will appear detailing that this operation causes the meter to reset and loss of data will ensue. To avoid any loss of data, please make sure that you have backed up all requisite information.
4)      You will be prompted to upload the Firmware file, extension .dcf.
5)      The Template Paste Options window will now open. Make sure all options are selected before pressing the “ok” button
 
The meter will now perform the upgrade process. This may take up to half an hour or longer to complete, so please do not be concerned.
 
Once the upgrade process has been completed, you will be returned to the Setup Assistant window. Double check that the version of the FAC1 Template has changed to the latest version. Exit this window once verified.
 
You have now upgraded your PM8000 meter to the latest firmware.
