Modbus Current Transformer

Modbus Current Transformer

The QI 300 V 485 from Qeed is an AC and DC current transformer with a Modbus RS485 and 0-10 Vdc output. The range is selectable between 0 to 150 and 0 to 300 Amps with a 12 to 30 Vdc power supply. The output is isolated from the input up to 3000V. The unit can measure AC True RMS and DC with bipolar direction. The QI 300 V RS485 can also display on the registers the Maximum current value, Minimum current value, and Amps used. The RMS current value can be viewed as a signed 16-bit integer, RMS current value floating 32 bits, and floating 32 bits swapped. The Amp-hours Min/Max can be reset. The Baud rate, address, measuring range, and the AC/DC setting can be set up with the aid of the DIP switches or the free software available on our website. The current transformer can be mounted on DIN rail or screws. The bipolar current measurement feature is essential to the solar panel business and battery charging networks.

DIP Switch Settings

If the first four settings are off, then the set up is via the EEPROM. More options are available via the EEPROM setting such as the Address 1 to 250 and the Baud rate up to 115200.
If you want to set up current maximum range or the polar output to 0-10V without setting up the EEPROM set the Address to 0001.
All changes to the DIP Switch setting must accompany a power reset otherwise changes will not happen.
